The Solar Provider Group is a privately-held business with a decade of global experience in the engineering, execution, construction, financing and placement of solar projects, including the recent completion of the largest solar installation to date in Europe. With a track record encompassing hundreds of projects spanning two continents, seven countries and six offices, Solar Provider Group was searching for an IT automation platform that supported its human capital on developments around the globe with spotless functionality on-premise and in the cloud. For the Solar Provider Group, GridVision delivered:

Quick and simple installation, operation and management: Building on the extensible automation platform, GridVision enables asset and task management across devices, users and environments from a single console, and delivers powerful out-of-the-box support for Microsoft Windows desktops and servers, Office 365, Exchange and Active Directory management and reporting tasks.
A highly competitive price point: The GridVision offering didn't require up-front investment, even with the professional edition, and was priced to scale competitively.
High scalability for rapid growth: The customer has doubled employees every year since its founding in 2010. GridVision enabled the company to expand easily into new markets and was simple to understand for non-technical IT users.
Seamless integration: GridVision's ability to integrate effortlessly with software like Office 365 was crucial for the customer, reducing time to value and increasing productivity.
Remote accessibility: Solar Provider Group has offices in the U.S., in Canada and across Europe and manages employees in the field and in the office. GridVision's ability to support employees on-premise and in the cloud while permitting access remotely and in-transit was a key factor in its selection.

Christian Ehrenthal, CEO and co-founder, GridVision, said:
"SMBs have many of the same IT automation challenges as enterprises do, and a number of other challenges that are unique to them, such as high agility and growth along with a smaller support team. We designed GridVision from the ground up to eliminate the need for complicated deployments and empower SMB users with enterprise-grade automation and management capabilities for virtualized, cloud-based or on-premise assets. We are honored to support the Solar Provider Group's expansion and success worldwide."

Christian Wentzel, president and CEO, Solar Provider Group, said:
"We are expanding our business to new markets in Europe and North America, and have doubled our employees year over year since 2010 to meet the demand for our services. We were spending a lot of time managing our IT and knew we wouldn't be able to keep up with the rate of growth doing things manually. We selected GridVision to automate our IT functions and streamline processes in a package completely tailored to mid-sized business needs. GridVision is deployed in strategic offices today and is currently being rolled out to all our locations worldwide."
