“The bottom line is that VMware’s virtual infrastructure enables higher flexibility, allowing us to better manage changing needs and letting us run more test streams simultaneously on our Windows and Linux test beds. Because we can perform more concurrent tests, we can bring high-quality releases to market more quickly – and that means we can give our clients the same high quality products sooner.”

Use VMware Infrastructure As The Foundation To Deliver Virtual Appliances, Reducing Time To Market While Saving Customers Time, Money And Resources On Deploying, Patching And Managing Software.
“Customers don’t download software anymore, with virtual appliances, they simply deploy an image of the solution they need. That’s really the key. Virtual appliances are changing the way customers think about a business solution. It’s not old problems or new problems, or physical deployments versus virtual deployments. It’s about solutions that get the job done.”

VMware Infrastructure Decreases Costs, Streamlines Server Deployment, and Reduces Energy Consumption
“Stop living in the past and jump on board with the future. In 2001, we were testing applications with various browsers with VMware Workstation. It was an exceptional product in its infancy and, today, it’s the standard for long-term IT upgrades and infrastructure utilization.”
Indiana University, Kelly School of Business
Use VMware Technology Across The School’s Infrastructure—And In The Classroom—To Improve IT Services, Pare Costs, And Give Students The Virtualization Know-How They Need To Succeed In The Workforce
“The university is pursuing a major green initiative, and our group is at the forefront of that. Virtualization is a very simple way of going green because it lets us run a system that’s as streamlined as it’s going to get. When we need more servers, we use VMware software to add virtual ones. We don’t have to go out and buy new hardware, more UPS or additional infrastructure.”
IndyMac Bank
Indymac Deployed VMware Infrastructure 3 Enterprise To Reduce IT Maintenance And Power Costs, Conserve Data Center Space And Strengthen Disaster Recovery
"After conducting a detailed financial analysis, it was apparent that virtualization results in immediate ROI. In our case, we conservatively estimate saving $10,000 per server that we deploy.”
Insurance.com
Insurance.Com Engaged Champion To Phase In A VMware Solution That Drastically Reduced Their Costs By Reducing Server Sprawl, Increasing CPU Utilization, And Increasing Efficiency By Eliminating Much Of The Time Needed To Reboot Machines And Test Applications
“Offering real-time insurance rate quotes from 15 companies to 46 states requires our computer systems to be up 99.99% of the year. Meeting those requirements takes a lot of discipline; VMware virtualization simplifies that.”
Interfaith Medical Center
Run Windows-Based, Mission-Critical Applications On VMware Infrastructure, Thereby Ensuring Manageability And High Availability, Reducing Capital Expenditures, And Delivering Efficient And Effective World-Class Healthcare
“As costs for providing high quality health care escalate, reimbursement for services provided continues to decline. Nevertheless, hospital leadership and staff, as well as our clinical professionals, clamor for new information technology to provide superior patient care, and higher quality information with which more meaningful operational decisions can be made. As a result, our mandate was to build an agile IT infrastructure that could respond well to growth opportunities and increasing demand for new software solutions without commensurately increasing hardware footprint as well as power and cooling costs which we just could not afford to sustain.”

VMware Virtual Infrastructure Avoids $1.1 Million In Cost for International Truck and Engine Corporation
“We have a developer start on a development environment, build a new application, get everything set up and working properly, and then we use VMotion to migrate it to a production environment. It has worked well; even better than we could have hoped.”
IXIS Capital Markets
VMware Virtual Infrastructure Helps IXIS Maintain a Bull-Market Edge
“Using VMware VMotion, we completed a patch upgrade from ESX Server 2.5 to 2.5.1 during the week, while our traders were trading, with zero downtime. Try doing that in a physical world!”
JanPak
JanPak Delivers High Availability, Nimble Business Response Using VMware ESX Server and P2V Assistant
"P2V Assistant is the best migration tool I have ever used. With it, we were able to move our large payroll system from a physical server to a virtual machine in just a few hours. We estimate that a comparable migration without P2V Assistant and ESX Server virtual machines would have taken us as long as three days."
Jenner & Block
Use VMware Infrastructure To Dramatically Consolidate Hosts While Beefing Up The Performance And Reliability Of Applications Like SQL Server
“This is a law firm, so most people here aren’t concerned about how our IT infrastructure’s set up. What they care about is, ‘Is it up?’ and ‘Is it fast?’ Since we’ve been running our key applications on VMware Infrastructure, the answer to those questions has basically been ‘yes,’ which makes our users—and us—very happy.”

“Our online shopping site runs around the clock, and VMware’s desktop virtualization gives us the flexibility and reliability we need to support 24/7 operations.”
John C. Lincoln Health Network
Diagnosis: Overcrowded Data Center. Remedy: Virtualization
“Intel’s Xeon processors work with the VMware Infrastructure 3 platform to give us the maximum server consolidation per dollar. If our virtual infrastructure was a car, we’d be getting more than 100 miles per gallon.”
Kadlec Medical Center
Use VMware Technology To Guarantee The Availability Of Healthcare Critical Applications While Saving Money, Power And Space In The Datacenter
“Running applications on ESX ensures their reliability, which is the number-one reason we began adopting it across the board in our datacenter. So many of our applications and systems are absolutely vital to staff and patients. So making sure they’re available whenever they’re needed is our paramount concern.”

Kindred Healthcare Continues Business Through Disaster
“As a healthcare provider, in the case of a disaster, it is of the utmost importance that Kindred Healthcare can continue to do business as usual. And that means making sure that our internal service providers can maintain operational readiness even during a disaster. We contract with SunGard to provide our IT staff with 250 offsite PCs in the case of a disaster. The hardware independence of VMware ACE gives our users seamless access to their specific ‘Kindred tool set,’ regardless of the x86 hardware SunGard provides us. Knowing our staff will be able to keep Kindred Healthcare doing business as usual, using their same day-to-day computing environment, is an enormous benefit.”
