A Real-World Example
Curtins Consulting—a UK-based engineering consultancy with over 450 staff across 14 offices—faced a time-intensive challenge managing large-scale CAD deployments during Autodesk’s shift to named-user licensing. Their small IT team was under pressure to uninstall and reinstall hundreds of licenses while ensuring configurations were correct and consistent.
After partnering with Symetri and adopting CQi, they were able to:
- Seamlessly uninstall and reinstall 450 licences across the business
- Standardise deployment across multiple locations
- Eliminate time-consuming manual follow-ups for plugins and configurations
“This project could have taken weeks, but CQi completed it in the background—quietly, efficiently, and without disruption.”
— Dave Price, Head of IT, Curtins Consulting
It wasn’t just about automation—it was about trust, accuracy, and giving Curtins the confidence that every deployment would be secure, consistent, and aligned with their standards.
