Customer Success Stories

Cloud Modernization: TELUS

TELUS, one of Canada’s largest telecommunications companies, faced significant challenges with siloed legacy systems, including Oracle Exadata and data lakes. These legacy systems were hindering operational efficiency and decision-making. Onix partnered with TELUS to migrate 14 petabytes of data from 100 sources to Google Cloud Platform (GCP), migrating over 200 enterprise-grade data pipelines. The migration enabled TELUS to:

Reduce obsolete data by 30%, leading to cost savings and a decrease in energy consumption.
Increase data accessibility and integration, improving decision-making capabilities across the organization.
Lower operational costs by eliminating legacy systems and transitioning to a scalable, cloud-native infrastructure.

By leveraging BigQuery for data storage and transformation, TELUS now benefits from a unified, scalable, and more efficient data infrastructure.

Healthcare Collaboration: Humana

Humana, a leading Nordic healthcare provider, needed to enhance collaboration across its distributed workforce while ensuring the security of sensitive patient data. Onix helped 13,000 employees transition to Google Workspace, enabling seamless collaboration on sensitive documents and improving productivity. Key outcomes included:

Zero CVEs (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures) in Google Workspace over three years, ensuring robust IT security.
Increased employee productivity by leveraging easy-to-use collaboration tools like Gmail, Docs, and Drive.
Improved collaboration across multiple regions, allowing staff to focus on patient care rather than administrative tasks.
Reduced environmental impact through sustainable IT practices, such as extending the lifespan of devices and leveraging Google Chrome OS.

Data Validation: Cisco

For 40 years, Cisco Systems is a leading player in the world of telecom and networking. With a global workforce of 84,900, the company has provided services in network security and cloud. For its internal data migration, Cisco needed a secure, scalable automation tool that could replace its time-consuming manual process.

In partnership with Onix, Cisco streamlined its data security and scalability with its automated data validation tool, Pelican. Here are some of its outcomes:

Zero failure rate along with 100% automatic generation of test cases.
80% improvement in testing efficiency and 50% reduction in testing time.
Data validation of 5,000 to 7,000 database tables (1,000 daily validation jobs) – along with 2 trillion table rows.
100% automated validation of data migrated from on-premise data warehouse to BigQuery.

Cloud Modernization: Pizza Pizza

For over half a century, Pizza Pizza has delighted its patrons with its quality ingredients, exceptional customer service, and innovation. To improve its uptime and performance during peak hours, Onix enabled this food company to migrate to Google Cloud platform with a multi-region deployment. This migration enabled the company to:

Improve the regional redundancy and performance of Pizza Pizza’s application.
Modernize their IT infrastructure for easy and compliant migrations in the future.
Expand its Google Cloud footprint by developing capabilities in Contact Centre AI and data analytics.
Migrate its Alberta-based Pizza 73 infrastructure from on-premises to Google Cloud.

I have been working with Onix since 2019 and their level of expertise, skills and communication are consistently at a very high level. The conversation is always geared towards the best solution for us, the customer. We are grateful for the partnership and continue to work with the Onix team to expand our Google infrastructure.

Unified Data Infrastructure: Evite

As the leading platform for digital invitations, Evite is in the business of connecting people through online invitations for over 20 years. To manage their massive data volumes, the company operated a fragmented data infrastructure across Google Cloud and AWS. In partnership with Onix, Evite unified its infrastructure on Google BigQuery for improved data management. Here are some of its outcomes:

Improved user experience on mobile app and web because of better performance and data optimization.
Improved data accuracy by 5% for decision-making purposes.
Reduced time-to-market and faster feature enhancements by streamlining data ingestion.
Faster data loading for relevant insights and reporting.

Customer Advisory Board

In 2024, Onix launched its first ever Customer Advisory Board (CAB) as part of a strategic initiative to deepen our understanding of customer needs and industry trends. The board is composed of a select group of 13 innovative C-suite leaders from major enterprise accounts that have been chosen for their expertise and forward-thinking perspectives. The goal of the CAB is to harness the collective intelligence of these influential executives to guide Onix’s business strategy and product innovation, ensuring that our solutions continue to meet the evolving demands of the market.

The CAB’s primary focus areas include driving digital transformation, identifying opportunities for improvement, advising on innovative solutions, and providing valuable feedback on Onix’s intellectual property (IP) roadmap. These strategic discussions are designed to inform the direction of Onix’s product offerings and ensure that we remain at the forefront of emerging technologies and industry developments.

As we expand into new sectors and develop more vertical solutions, the CAB’s guidance will be crucial in helping us tailor our offerings to the unique challenges faced by businesses in industries such as healthcare, finance, and retail. Their feedback will directly influence the development of innovative solutions that address the specific pain points of our clients and their customers, ensuring that Onix delivers unparalleled value.
