The Solution 

They successfully migrated the entire company within just 2 months. During this period, they achieved rapid adoption, with 94% of users engaging in collaborative activities on Google Drive and Google Hangouts Meet sessions in one month alone. NGC prioritized change management, providing a blend of on-site and remote training sessions tailored to our users' needs.

The Challenge 

Google Workspace was a great fit for Ekol’s present and future productivity needs. NGC spearheaded the change management efforts by facilitating employee roundtables and surveys, aiming to identify potential roadblocks in workflow during the transition. One of the most important aspects was the ability to replicate Ekol’s old email and calendar setup for users accustomed to a specific workflow.

Results

The methodical approach to implementing Google Workspace at Ekol resulted in a lower-than-expected impact during the migration process. The Google Workspace solution implemented by NGC will help Ekol save 25% in overall infrastructure management costs. Additionally, Ekol expects to avoid new data storage equipment costs by utilizing Google Team Drive as an alternative storage solution.
