VMware Infrastructure 3 Provides An Easily Administered IT Infrastructure That Increases Reliability While Reducing Costs.
“How has VMware Infrastructure 3 benefited us? You name it: lower costs, easier maintenance, increased stability… I can’t think of an area where it hasn’t benefited us.”
Fortune 500 Healthcare Company
Virtualization Is The Key To Faster Software Development
“Leveraging a VMware and Intel based virtualization platform for our quality assurance processes lets our teams work with cleaner testing environments, expand the scope of testing, and turn around software builds faster.”
Frederick Memorial Healthcare System
Virtualization Cures Frederick Memorial Healthcare’s Server Ills
“It used to take two to three weeks to procure a server, rack it, cable it, and get the operating system laid down. We can now deploy a server in about 30 minutes. That’s just one of the ways that virtualization has been a big feather in the cap of the engineering department here at the hospital.”
FutureFuel Chemical Company
Use VMware Infrastructure To Quickly Build A Virtualized SAP ERP Implementation That Meets And Exceeds The Enterprise’s Business Demands, Yet Is So Easy To Manage That It’s Overseen By An IT Staff Of Two
“Since we were starting from scratch, we had the unique opportunity to put together any solution we wanted, so we focused on developing an infrastructure that met the demanding requirements of SAP ERP. Not only did we have a lot to do, we had a short time to do it: less than four months to get everything set up and configured. We needed an SAP infrastructure that was reliable, flexible, manageable and scalable—and we needed it yesterday. And since we only have two people to support the entire IT infrastructure, we needed a system that was self-sufficient and would ‘just work’ without a lot of attention. That’s why we went with VMware Infrastructure.”
Gateway Bancorp
Financial Institution Sees Virtualization As A Gateway Towards Superior Service
“By helping to provide us with excellent uptime for our applications, the VMware and Intel virtualization solution has been a huge benefit for our company as a whole.”
Genesis Multimedia Solutions
VMware Infrastructure Improves IT Performance, Accelerates Server Deployment Process, Eliminates Customer Downtime During Maintenance Cycles
“Our objective is to provide medium-sized businesses with a means to lease highly available, managed virtual infrastructure for production, test, development, demo environments and disaster recovery with guaranteed and measured service levels. Without the flexibility of VMware Infrastructure 3, sharing a cluster of computing resources with guaranteed service levels would be either too expensive or completely out of reach.”
Genilogix
Genilogix Bases Its Full Range of Products and Services on VMware Virtualization Technology.
“Unlike virtual software from other vendors, VMware ESX Server installs directly on the bare metal of the server, so it isn’t vulnerable to any instabilities of the operating system. It gives us excellent performance—up to 22 percent better response time.”
George Washington University
VMware Infrastructure 3 Creates A Virtual Infrastructure That Allows Multiple Servers To Be Easily Hosted And Administered.
"Our system administrators appreciate VMware Infrastructure 3 for a variety of reasons: the speed of deployment, flexibility, time savings…the list goes on.”
Global Telecommunications Company
VMware Helps Global Telecom Provider* Increase Performance and Utilization While Phasing Out Old Hardware
“My company has 15 or 20 sites, and not all of them are using VMware software yet. I’m trying to communicate my successes internally to make the other sites aware of my experiences with VMware and to encourage broader adoption.”
GMAC Rescap
VMware technology and services create an easily administered virtual infrastructure that reduces IT overhead.
“Our relationship with VMware technology has led us to implement a ‘VMware first’ policy for all new OS instances, where an exception process has to be followed to order physical hardware. That’s how strongly we feel about the benefits of virtualization.”
Granger Community Church
VMware Server provides a cost-free way for organizations to experience the benefits of server virtualization.
“We had some pretty powerful servers that weren’t necessarily being utilized to their full capacity. VMware Server lets us get more bang for the buck out of our hardware by creating multiple virtual machines to run on the servers.”
GSD&M Idea City
Idea City Deployed The Accellion Secure File Transfer Virtual Appliance, Running On VMware Infrastructure 3, To Easily Transfer Even Files As Large As 20GB.
“As per our hardware leasing strategy, every piece of hardware over $500 has to be on a lease. So every physical piece of hardware gets reconfigured every three years, and re-associating software applications with new hardware can be very taxing for us. But virtual appliances don’t have that problem — they can move from physical host to physical host without any issues.”
Guardian Life
VMware Helps Guardian Retire Unsupported Hardware, Migrate Applications Without Reinstallation
“With VMware, we gained efficiencies on many levels, from optimizing the utilization of hardware resources and consolidating server platforms, to establishing more effective platforms for testing and business continuity/disaster recovery. Ultimately, the implementation minimized our infrastructure needs as compared to the traditional ‘server sprawl’.”
Hackensack University Medical
VMware Infrastructure 3 Creates a Flexible and Scalable Virtual Infrastructure That Frees Up Data Center Resources and Supports Growth
“Virtualization is no longer a ‘maybe’ for enterprise IT environments— it’s a necessity. We need to reduce costs and make more efficient use of resources, and VMware Infrastructure 3 helps us achieve that goal.”
Hancock Bank
VMware Infrastructure enables Hancock Bank to recover critical systems within its 24-hour recovery objective while reducing costs.
"Without VMware Infrastructure, it would have taken us weeks to recover our critical systems when Hurricane Katrina hit our datacenter. VMware Infrastructure enabled us to meet our recovery objectives—we got our critical systems up and running within 24 hours, allowing us to get our critical applications back in service within 48 hours."
Hay Group
Use VMware Technology To Improve The Availability Of Vital Applications While Paring Costs To The Tune Of Roughly $2.3 Million—And Moving Towards A Cloud Infrastructure For Even Greater Efficiencies
“Our primary datacenter is now 100 percent virtualized on vSphere 4. The upgrade went very smoothly and we are already beginning to take advantage of some of the exciting new features such as Fault Tolerance, vShield Zones, vStorage Thin Provisioning and Host Profiles. We are especially excited about Fault Tolerance because it will ensure zero downtime and zero data loss for applications most critical to the business.”
HelioVolt
VMware Technology Creates A Scalable Virtual Infrastructure That Is Easily Maintained And Reliable For Running Mission Critical Applications, Keeping Costs Low And IT Departments Lean
“VMware is the clear and obvious leader in virtualization products. We tried both the Microsoft and Oracle virtualization products and found them lacking in features and performance compared to the VMware product.”
Hewlett-Packard
HP Adopts VMware Virtual Infrastructure Worldwide
"The VMware implementation eliminates a large amount of costs for hardware contracts and ups the utilization of the servers; so HP ends up getting a better bang for the buck.”
Huntsville Hospital
Deploying Hosted Desktops on VMware Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI), the Hospital Was Able to Increase Their Desktop Deployment Agility, Lock Down Sensitive Patient Data and Reduce the Cost and Complexity of Desktop Management.
"We’re in the process of opening a new emergency room at the hospital. Because of the critical nature of the computing environment, it has to be up and running extremely quickly. With VMware VDI, instead of having to buy 150 PCs and fully configure them, we’re going to roll out 150 thin clients, connect them to their pre-configured hosted virtual desktops, and be on our way."
IBM
IBM implemented VMware Lab Manager, which builds on VMware Infrastructure 3 environments by automating the rapid setup and replacement of complex multimachine software configurations.
“Thanks to automation features alone in VMware Lab Manager, we’re saving two hours per person per build-verification test. Without VMware, this dramatically improved efficiency would not be possible.”
