The Challenge: Continental needed a scalable, cost-effective alternative to Adobe Acrobat

Continental needed an alternative to Adobe Acrobat that could expand access to PDF productivity tools without the high per-license cost of deploying Adobe across more users.

The company had a limited Adobe Acrobat deployment but could not standardize the solution across its workforce because of licensing costs. As a result, many employees did not have access to PDF tools that would allow them to work with documents effectively.

As Tobias von der Heydt, IT Contract and License Manager at Continental, explained: “The Adobe tools are very expensive tools, with many overloaded features our users aren’t using.”

Continental wanted to make PDF productivity tools available to more employees, so the company needed a solution that could support expanded adoption while remaining practical for IT to deploy and manage.
