baramundi Success Stories
Auto Partner (Poland)
Manufacturing
Auto Partner
With over 2,000 employees and more than 120 locations, Auto Partner SA is one of the largest importers and distributors of automotive replacement parts in Poland. To efficiently manage the IT infrastructure of a widely distributed network and reduce manual effort, the company chose the baramundi Management Suite. Within a short time, the IT team began to benefit from significantly faster software deployments, greater automation, and simplified management of its end devices.
When Growth Pushes IT to Its Limits
Auto Partner’s IT department manages several thousand end devices spread across numerous branches and logistics centers. For a long time, management was primarily handled using Microsoft SCCM and Group Policy. However, as the company grew, the existing processes reached their limits. Software distribution and patch management, in particular, required a significant amount of manual effort.
Many routine tasks had to be performed manually, which was time-consuming and also increased the likelihood of errors. An extensive IT initiative ultimately made it clear that an automated solution was necessary to meet the growing demands.
“Distributing software and patches was taking up an ever-increasing amount of our limited time. We urgently needed more automation to handle the daily mountain of routine tasks. baramundi really impressed us here, especially with its baramundi Automation Studio and patch management. Distributing software is now significantly easier and faster. Our response time has also improved noticeably. The more we learn about the system, the greater the time savings become.”

More automation. Fewer routine tasks.
With the introduction of the baramundi Management Suite, Auto Partner gained the ability to automate key IT processes much more effectively. The baramundi Automation Studio and the integrated patch management feature in particular impressed the IT team. Applications, scripts, and software packages can now be deployed and managed much more efficiently. At the same time, those responsible benefit from centralized control. The results:
Significant improvements are already evident just a few months after implementation:
- Faster and easier software deployment
- Noticeably shorter response times from the IT department
- Greater automation of routine tasks
- Greater efficiency in managing distributed endpoints
- A better foundation for future IT projects and scalability, as well as greater transparency in all software deployments.
Windows 11 Migration Without Any Extra Effort
The preparation for the Windows 11 migration demonstrated significant added value. While an upgrade would previously have required a considerable amount of manual effort, Auto Partner was able to centrally plan, roll out, and monitor the process using baramundi.
Both in-place upgrades and network installations can be precisely controlled, and their success can be tracked. This significantly reduces the administrative burden and allows the migration to be carried out in a controlled and efficient manner.
More time for IT. Better performance for the company.
The implementation of baramundi enables Auto Partner to streamline its IT processes and reduce administrative overhead. The company is already benefiting from faster workflows, increased productivity in the IT department, and more reliable software deployment. At the same time, the solution lays the groundwork for future projects and continued growth.
