Lumiun Tecnologia brings to the Brazilian market a simple, low-investment solution for controlling internet access in small and medium-sized companies. The solution addresses two common problems faced by managers today: protection against internet threats and low employee productivity .
A 2015 PwC survey found that expenses for security breaches increased by 34% in one year in companies. Another Triad survey found that 72% of professionals spend an average of 3 hours a day on the internet. “These problems are very relevant in companies, and can cause serious damage with data loss and low employee productivity, compromising on average 15% of the team's working time. That's why we created Lumiun, so that all companies have more internet security and can manage their employees' internet use, thus increasing team productivity”, reports Cledison, one of the founders.
Lumiun already has customers in all states in the south and southeast of Brazil. “With Lumiun we control the use of the internet in all units of the company, with integrated management we reduce travel and maintenance costs, in addition to increasing team productivity by 12%” says Rodrigo Florentino, IT manager at Sicoob Coopcred. André Faria, managing partner at Bluesoft, reports that “Lumiun offers security and browsing monitoring in a simple and practical way with complete and analytical reports on internet use in our company”.
Heini, also a founder and with 15 years of experience in network security, adds that Lumiun fills a clear gap in the market: “Smaller companies have difficulty acquiring security and navigation control solutions, as the investment is high, in addition to constant maintenance, updates and a specialized technology professional are required. So we created Lumiun so that all managers can manage their internet use in a simple and efficient way.”
The service is easily installed in the company, simply by installing the Lumiun Box on the network, with no configuration required. After that, all management takes place in a control panel accessible on the web, with a simple and intuitive interface.
The return on investment with the service is quickly perceived by managers, through increased employee focus and productivity. In fact, Lumiun provides managers with a tool that allows them to simulate the cost of wasted time in companies, which can be accessed at www.lumiun.com/calculo-desperdicio .
It is possible to implement any internet access policy, for example, to block content such as pornography or social networks, simply select a button for the desired category. The rules can be flexible, depending on users, equipment and times. Furthermore, the system generates analytical reports on network usage, allowing the manager to make decisions to optimize the company's internet security and productivity.
Lumiun Tecnologia is headquartered in Ijuí, in the northwest of Rio Grande do Sul and was recently selected for the WOW Aceleradora de Porto Alegre acceleration program, receiving support from mentors, financial support and a complete package of services. “With the acceleration, the objective is to expand the operation and increase the number of customers by 160% by the end of 2016”, said Heini, CEO of the company.
