CapaOne & Vordingborg Køkkenet:
Automation That Makes a Difference
A Medium-sized Company with High Demands on IT Stability.
Time is a crucial factor for us — we couldn’t manage all our endpoints without automating a large portion of our tasks.
Vordingborg Køkkenet is a Danish kitchen manufacturer headquartered in Vordingborg, producing kitchen, bathroom, and wardrobe solutions across a nationwide retail network.
The IT department manages nearly 200 endpoints, and IT Manager Thomas Holm-Frederiksen relies on CapaOne to maintain security and stability with limited resources.
Business Challenge
Rising Security Requirements and Limited Time
Cybersecurity demands have increased significantly, requiring timely software updates, up-to-date drivers, and restricted administrator rights.
For a small IT function, meeting these requirements manually is challenging.
Thomas emphasizes that with limited hours in the day, the team needed automation to ensure that no critical tasks were missed and that endpoints remained secure.
The Solution
Automation Through On-Premise CapaInstaller and CapaOne Cloud Services
Vordingborg Køkkenet uses a hybrid solution combining the on-premise, CapaInstaller, from CapaSystems with several CapaOne cloud services.
Third-party updates and driver updates are fully automated, reducing manual work and minimizing disruptions for end users.
Key solutions include:
- CapaOne Provision Manager to update drivers every evening at 18:00
- CapaOne Application Manager to update third-party software every hour
- CapaOne Privilege Manager to restrict and manage local administrator rights
When CapaOne was first implemented, the dashboard revealed more than 1,000 missing updates across devices. Today, the daily number is consistently zero, giving both IT and management confidence in system stability.
The Outcome
Improved Security, Fewer Errors, and a More Efficient IT Operation
With automated updates and a clear dashboard overview, the IT department experiences fewer issues and greater operational calm.
Security has been significantly strengthened by removing default administrator rights, while workflows ensure that essential updates run without interruption.
Thomas highlights that the graphical dashboard provides reassurance not only to IT but also to leadership.
The implementation process was simple, supported by an experienced CapaSystems consultant who ensured a quick and smooth rollout.
