IT specifications
Challenge
For many years, Bayer relied on a different diagramming software solution. Over time, licensing costs steadily increased, eventually exceeding 6,000 licensed users. Bayer needed a solution that would ensure brand consistency and operational efficiency while being accessible to all employees without incurring additional costs.
Process
Bayer conducted an extensive Proof of Concept to evaluate the empower® alternative. This enabled users to verify that all essential diagramming features were available and that a smooth transition could be achieved through the conversion of existing diagrams. With only a small number of exceptions, more than 95 percent of users were convinced and transitioned to empower® at the end of their license term.
Result
Bayer has successfully used empower® for many years and, over time, has saved millions of dollars in licensing and administrative costs as a result of the transition. The demand for efficient diagram creation remains strong across the organization, and empower® continues to see consistently high usage and strong user satisfaction.
Challenge
DHL Post & Paket needed an economically sustainable and scalable solution for creating diagrams in PowerPoint. Beyond the high licensing costs of its previous software, license management posed a significant administrative burden. Each year, the company had to assess its actual licensing requirements, involving an external service provider and engaging in multi-week coordination efforts.
Process
Following a comprehensive testing phase with a broad group of users, DHL Post & Paket selected empower® as a company-wide add-in for PowerPoint diagrams. The solution was implemented quickly and deployed across the organization to approximately 24,000 users under a corporate license agreement.
Result
By introducing the empower® corporate license, DHL Post & Paket eliminated the complex annual license management process entirely, as all 24,000 users were centrally provisioned with the software. This increased organization-wide productivity, reduced annual licensing costs, and significantly streamlined administrative operations.
Challenge
BROSE previously used another diagramming software solution with more than 1,000 users. Although all licenses were required, the company had to reduce the number of licenses due to cost constraints. As a result, many employees were limited to using PowerPoint’s native features for diagram creation.
Process
Following a comprehensive evaluation, BROSE rolled out empower® to all 16,000 employees. Cost-effective terms under a corporate license agreement ensured that expenses would remain predictable and controlled over the long term.
Result
The company now saves substantial annual licensing expenses while providing professional diagramming capabilities to its entire workforce. This supports BROSE’s broader strategy of maintaining IT costs within a sustainable and predictable range while meeting the demands of a modern digital workplace.
