Decimal manages IT for a 100-person remote workforce with confidence and control

With Rippling’s Mobile Device Management, Matt can rest easy knowing laptops are secure, software is up-to-date, and work devices are easy to lock and wipe if an employee loses them or leaves the company. “IT security in multiple states and countries and having remote access to equipment has been a game changer for us,” he said. 

Darrin Peters, who leads Decimal’s IT department, echoed Rippling’s sturdy security framework. “I really appreciate the convenience of knowing all our devices are fully protected against potential viruses or malicious downloads,” he said. “SentinelOne makes it easy to monitor and view a detailed log of threats for each device, giving us both confidence and control over our security."

Rippling also helped the company get and maintain SOC 2 compliance. And Theresa Cava, Decimal’s Director of Finance, People and Controller, uses the system to run reports on which devices need software updates and which need to be replaced. “If I had Excel sheets for that, I’d go crazy,” she said. “Being a remote team, I can’t just walk over and grab somebody’s computer.” Rippling fills the void—“I order new computers and they’re sent off to employees. That can save me months of work.”

Matt appreciates that Rippling handles a laundry list of IT tasks and plays nice with the other tools in Decimal’s tech stack. “What I’ve seen throughout my career is that when a great software company keeps building features, they start shutting down integrations,” he said. “The fact that Rippling has great partnerships and continues to put out great products has been nice for us.”

With more than 600 integrations, Rippling helps Decimal automate and secure the entire device and user lifecycle.

According to Matt, employees and admins both love that most of Decimal’s administrative to-dos flow through a single, unified platform. “Our employees are in peer groups of people who are constantly complaining about having to enter five different things in five systems and nothing updates and nothing actually works together,” he said. “Our team is like, ‘we log into one place that pretty much does everything we need.’”

Matt added that, just as Rippling helped hire Decimal’s first 100 employees, he thinks the platform’s IT support will be instrumental in the company growing even more in the years to come. “Rippling allows us to enter our next phase of evolution as a company,” he said. “To know that we have the foundational support of a really good IT infrastructure is going to make that phase easy.”
