Rosti Group Eliminates Device Downtime and Boosts Productivity by 40% with SOTI MobiControl

Rosti Group reduces device downtime by more than four hours per device, per month and can now deploy applications 20 times faster with SOTI MobiControl

Mississauga, CANADA – March 12, 2024 – Rosti Group (Rosti) a global expert in plastic injection and contract manufacturing services, reported a remarkable 40% increase in productivity following the successful implementation of SOTI MobiControl, part of the SOTI ONE Platform.

With production sites in Europe and Asia, Rosti has a distributed workforce to provide the best service to some of the world’s leading businesses in the packaging, consumer appliances, medical and automotive sectors.

With IT support and operations centrally located in Poland, managing the hundreds of devices, rugged handsets and scanners across its global locations proved difficult for Rosti. IT personnel would spend two to three days travelling from the center in Poland to fix device issues overseas, which resulted in lower productivity for both the support team and device user.

Additional challenges included excessive device downtime, concerns around security, lack of technological depth across regions as well as numerous data collection processes reliant on outdated paper-based methods. These challenges created the need for a shift to an Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM) platform to streamline operations.

After a successful proof of concept, Rosti leveraged SOTI MobiControl to revolutionize its device management processes. Streamlined app installations achieved a 20-fold increase in deployment speed while maintaining robust security, which in turn boosted productivity. SOTI MobiControl's Lockdown feature secured vital data and remote software updates, ensuring devices remained current with the latest security protocols, in line with device manufacturer warranties, as well as enhancing resilience against malware threats and fostering a secure, productive environment.

Since implementing SOTI MobiControl, Rosti has experienced a significant improvement in flexibility and speed of executing its updated business standards across its mobile operations. The company benefitted from reducing downtime caused by hardware issues by more than four hours per device, per month. Now, Rosti’s IT team can efficiently trace device locations and access hardware warranty information for device updates and replacements when necessary.

"A lack of digitalization, paper-based processes and device downtime caused enormous time and financial costs for Rosti in the past. We are delighted to be able to add value for the entire workforce by optimizing processes and remotely managing mobile device fleets,” commented Stefan Mennecke, VP of Sales, Middle East, Africa & Central, Southern and Eastern Europe at SOTI. “This allows employees to work more efficiently and concentrate on the essential tasks for the business. However, Rosti is not an isolated case when it comes to cumbersome manual processes. That is why we are happy to support companies like Rosti in managing their devices remotely and securely in order to be innovative and competitive."

"By deploying SOTI MobiControl across our entire global device fleet, we have significantly enhanced our governance model, streamlined the application and firmware update procedures and elevated the quality of support we offer to our clients,” said Andrzej Chojnowski, IT Director Europe, Rosti. “SOTI has revolutionized our ability to deliver the necessary resources to sustain our entire business. As a result, our organization has experienced a remarkable increase in cost-effectiveness and overall performance."
