• Client visibility over data access
• Governance over customers’ rapidly growing data estate
• Accelerated adoption of AI tools like Microsoft 365 Copilot for customers
• Clear presentation of risk factors to clients for informed decision-making

Netrix Global's customers face significant challenges in managing their rapidly expanding data estates, particularly with the advent of generative AI technologies like Copilot. The primary concerns revolve around data security, governance, and ensuring that sensitive information is adequately protected and accessible only to authorized personnel. As Kevin Walter, Field CTO at Netrix Global, explains, "With generative AI, it's all about the data, where their data is and who has access to it. Preparing customers for things like Copilot means helping answer those questions because a lot of times their data estate has grown so quickly, it's out of control."

To address these challenges, Netrix Global partnered with AvePoint, leveraging its comprehensive suite of solutions designed to enhance data security, governance, and compliance. AvePoint's tools provide robust data protection, advanced analytics, and automated governance, enabling Netrix to offer its clients a secure and efficient IT environment.

AvePoint's solutions integrate seamlessly with Microsoft 365, providing advanced data protection and governance capabilities. The platform offers detailed insights into data sensitivity and exposure, helping organizations identify and mitigate risks. "AvePoint does a really good job of telling the story that we need our customers to see. When we think of risk, it's a combination of sensitivity and exposure — so what the data is and who has access to it," says Kevin Walter, Field CTO at Netrix Global. This visual representation of data security metrics allows clients to make informed decisions about their data management strategies. 

Partnering with AvePoint has also enabled Netrix Global customers to accelerate adoption of AI technology across their organizations. With the help of AvePoint’s solutions, Netrix successfully empowered customers to prepare for the technological shift of using generative AI tools in the era of Microsoft 365 Copilot. Through this partnership, AvePoint’s solutions facilitated the seamless integration of AI tools like Copilot, enabling Netrix clients to leverage AI insights to optimize decisions, reduce risk, and drive better outcomes. Kevin shares, "Being able to present the information to them that the AvePoint tools give us has helped us accelerate their adoption of tools like Copilot and security tools that help remediate the underlying issues."
