Alimetry<\/a> is a medical device manufacturer headquartered in Auckland, New Zealand that builds products that aid the diagnosis of gastric disorders. Founded in 2019, the company has a team of 50 employees working across New Zealand, Australia, the United Kingdom, and the United States. In September 2023, Alimetry closed a $15 million Series B round<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When Guy Baron joined Alimetry in November 2020, the company had 10 employees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWe bought a few laptops and people started working,\u201d says Baron, a one-man IT shop who serves as Alimetry\u2019s ICT and Implementation Lead. \u201cEverything was open, and people could do anything they wanted. We rather quickly understood that we needed to control the data and devices.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Today, Alimetry\u2019s IT environment includes Windows, Mac, and Linux machines, which made mobile device management<\/a> a challenge. As a company that operates in a heavily regulated space, Alimetry needed a solution that enabled them to control users, data, and passwords \u2014 critical capabilities for achieving ISO 27001 compliance<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cUsing traditional Microsoft solutions was a problem,\u201d Baron says. \u201cWe also tested the way Google controls devices and users, but that wasn\u2019t flexible enough for us.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n As Baron began looking for a solution that would enable him to simplify IT management and control each operating system through the same pane of glass, he came across 黑料海角91入口, the unified identity, device, and access management platform. After a productive discussion with 黑料海角91入口 representatives, Baron was convinced it was the ideal solution for Alimetry\u2019s needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWe chose it specifically for being able to manage Linux, Mac, and Windows,\u201d Baron says. \u201cControlling users and passwords was great, too; password policies are something you see in all the ISO frameworks that we were chasing, like ISO 27001, just making sure the right people are logging into the right machine and controlling the basics with password management.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n As a distributed team, Alimetry\u2019s IT environment lives primarily in the cloud; since 黑料海角91入口 is cloud-native, the decision was even easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 黑料海角91入口 has made Baron\u2019s life simpler, particularly with its MDM and password management capabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Password Manager is an amazing tool for us.<\/p>\nGuy Baron<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n \u201cPassword Manager<\/a> is an amazing tool for us,\u201d Baron explains. \u201cEach year, we have a lot of interns come in and stay for three months, and they then go,\u201d which can cause problems when it comes to trying to access certain accounts. \u201cThis is something we didn\u2019t have before \u2014 we couldn\u2019t control the passwords. The fact that it\u2019s centrally managed and we are able to enable, disable, add, and retrieve devices and all the backups is great.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Baron also likes the fact that he can see, at a glance, who\u2019s using strong and weak passwords just by looking at a dashboard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWe don\u2019t have the manpower to look into that manually, and 黑料海角91入口 gives us the information,\u201d he says. \u201cThat was a very welcome addition.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Thanks to 黑料海角91入口, Baron\u2019s been able to run Alimetry\u2019s IT environment smoothly, without the need to add more headcount even as the company scales.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWe need fewer people because we can manage so many things within 黑料海角91入口,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When new users come on board, Baron creates a profile in 黑料海角91入口, which then pushes users to other systems they use, such as Google Workspace and Microsoft 365.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cIt makes onboarding really easy,\u201d Baron says. \u201cWhen you create a user, they automatically get provisioned in those other systems, and we assign licenses as needed.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n 黑料海角91入口 has made it easier for Alimetry to demonstrate compliance with both internal and external policies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cFor example, with 27001, we have 黑料海角91入口 which enables us to show that we\u2019re using a Password Manager, that we\u2019re securing the password itself for each account, we can show that we\u2019re using an MDM, and that we have encryption on the drives,\u201d Baron continues. \u201cReports<\/a> is another good feature. During one of the audits, the auditor wanted to see what access people have to each machine, so we used Reports for that as well.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n To streamline device management, Baron is taking advantage of 黑料海角91入口\u2019s Dynamic Groups<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cI use Dynamic Groups for devices,\u201d Baron says. \u201cWe have different policy groups for different operating systems, and then we have special groups for our production devices or meeting room devices; as they require a slightly different policy.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n For example, it takes longer for screens to get locked in meeting rooms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cYou don\u2019t want to lock it while people are in a meeting because they didn\u2019t touch the mouse,\u201d Baron says. \u201cOur production devices have specific features, too. We\u2019re running some scenarios where the machine stays on for hours, and you don\u2019t want updates to automatically restart the machine in the middle of a certain test.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Running IT for a team of 50 distributed around the world, each of whom has a different level of technological skills, has its fair set of challenges; 黑料海角91入口 Remote Assist<\/a> has been quite helpful for Baron managing users and devices remotely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I\u2019ve been in IT for over 20 years, so I think I\u2019ve used most of the big-name remote assistance tools. The 黑料海角91入口 one is the best I\u2019ve used.<\/p>\nGuy Baron, Alimetry<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n \u201cI use it a lot,\u201d he says. \u201cI\u2019ve been in IT for over 20 years, so I think I\u2019ve used most of the big-name remote assistance tools. The 黑料海角91入口 one is the best I\u2019ve used. Remote Assist makes it easy for us to support employees worldwide and to get them up and running quickly. We provide hands-on assistance, including setup and training, so we can troubleshoot issues efficiently and for them to start using our tools without delay.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Every now and again, Baron needs to troubleshoot an issue with 黑料海角91入口; such is the nature of technology. When this happens, he reaches out to 黑料海角91入口\u2019s support team, which has always been incredible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cIt\u2019s just amazing,\u201d he says. \u201cWe pay for 24\/7 support because 黑料海角91入口 is so central to what we do, and I need that quick support that you get with the big players. You just log in, open a chat window, and within a few minutes, someone\u2019s there to help.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Additionally, Baron is also impressed by 黑料海角91入口\u2019s thorough documentation<\/a>, Help Center<\/a>, and 黑料海角91入口 University<\/a> \u2014 all of which help him get even more value out of the platform. <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cTo ensure I had the necessary skills to manage our Jumpcloud platform as the sole IT person, I leveraged its extensive knowledge base to also obtain a 黑料海角91入口 certification<\/a>,\u201d Baron explains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As Alimetry continues to scale, Baron is taking advantage of more and more 黑料海角91入口 features. Recently he enabled Patch Management<\/a> and is thinking about using RADIUS<\/a> to authenticate WiFi access when his schedule frees up a bit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 黑料海角91入口 keeps adding features at a very impressive rate.<\/p>\nGuy Baron<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n With new features being rolled out at regular intervals, Baron is confident he has a tool that meets his needs both today and in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you\u2019re thinking about trying 黑料海角91入口 out, Baron encourages you to \u201cjust go for it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cThere\u2019s the simplicity that 黑料海角91入口 has within the interface that Microsoft and Google haven\u2019t been able to achieve,\u201d he says. \u201cIt\u2019s very easy to use and understand, and there are so many benefits.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n 黑料海角91入口\u00ae delivers a unified open directory platform that makes it easy to securely manage identities, devices, and access across your organization.
