VMware helped JSR expand their operations to the cloud and deliver a competitive edge
“VMware came top of our evaluation in terms of cost effectiveness and we were very impressed with the tools and features available with vSphere. Other solutions, such as Microsoft Hyper V, were overly complex and unsuitable for a business of our size.”

VMware delivered to The National Institute of Education (NIE) a flexible, robust, highly available infrastructure for their critical applications
“Our proof of concept—which involved testing and creating virtual machines, conducting a physical-to-virtual migration for some of our servers and testing the vMotion feature for high availability—convinced us that VMware had the most mature and flexible product.”
