For one leading retailer, IOS upgrades were limited to one device per engineer, per hour because so much time was spent on manual pre-checks.
With NetBrain Triple Defense, the team automated key validation steps before every change, including IOS version, image presence, flash storage, and MD5 hash. Instead of checking devices one by one, engineers could validate the fleet at scale and get a clear go/no-go decision before work began.
The result:
-
8X increase in throughput — from 1 to 8 devices per engineer, per hour
-
Zero failures since implementation
-
$2.14M estimated annual ROI
The upgrade itself still remained a deliberate change. NetBrain simply removed the hours of manual effort that came before it.
