VariQ
The agency turned to VariQ to implement VMware® Infrastructure 3 Enterprise with integrated disaster recovery functionality. The solution helped the agency to increase uptime, maintain high application availability and reduce recovery time.
"The VMware Infrastructure 3 Enterprise snapshot features combined with our shared SAN storage mesh are truly impressive. We have reduced application testing to production lifecycles by 300 percent."

The agency turned to VariQ to implement VMware Infrastructure 3 Enterprise. The results have been reduced hardware replacement costs, greatly simplified server management and a more scalable infrastructure.
"VMware Infrastructure 3 Enterprise allowed us to save rack space, reduce future energy consumption, maximize our existing infrastructure investment and also provide for future growth for this top-tier federal customer."
Vidéotron
Vidéotron Meets Tough Deadline Using VMware Software and Engaging VMware Technical Account Manager (TAM) Program
"As a service company, we want to provide the best solution to our clients, fully meeting their needs. Because we are able to use virtual infrastructure technology, we were able to give our clients the benefits of this technology – a fast migration from physical to virtual environment, reduced costs, higher performance and high availability."
WA Department of Education and Training
"We needed to arrest and reverse our server sprawl by delivering a cost-eff ective environment that delivered high availability. VMware virtualization has underpinned our eff orts to deliver this."
WCM Investment Management
VMware infrastructure consolidates servers, saving space and reducing costs.
“We saw the ways that VMware ESX could help us significantly consolidate our servers, and in doing so, reduce our power consumption and airconditioning requirements. Really, it’s been our salvation.”

VMware Virtualization Software Enabled The Company To Deliver True 'On Demand' Services And Achieve Greater Agility In Software Deployment.
“It very quickly became obvious that virtualization could deliver economies of scale and efficiencies while meeting the higher performance and availability requirements of our larger corporate customers."
Welch's
VMware Virtual Infrastructure Quenches Welch's Thirst for Low-Cost Business Continuity and High Availability
"I have so much faith in the VMware technology that we are rolling it out to our five production plants. In fact, our secret juice recipe database runs in a virtual machine and has been running there for four years."
WTC Communications (Desktop)
WTC Communications Keeps Rural Kansas Connected with VMware Virtual Desktop Infrastructure
"Now, with VMware virtual desktop infrastructure in place, anytime someone needs a new computer, it is easy and inexpensive to create a thin client. A new user, even one with an old laptop, can RDP to a virtual XP box, and it works beautifully."
WTC Communications (Server)
Communications Company Keeps Rural Kansas Connected with VMware Virtual Infrastructure
"There were things we couldn’t do before because of hardware costs. Now we can offer Web site hosting, server hosting and other services. We’re able to buy licenses for software, provision it in our virtual infrastructure, provide services to customers at a low cost, and still see a profit."
WWF United Kingdom
VMware® Infrastructure 3 for 5:1 server consolidation and high availability of critical servers
"Virtualisation has allowed WWF to simply manage our IT infrastructure and create an effective disaster recovery practice. After experiencing these benefits in our UK office, my IT team has been urging all of our other offices to ‘go virtual.’ Our aim is for the entire global operation of WWF to run on VMware and dramatically reduce our carbon footprint through virtualisation."
Wyndham City Council
"Our servers required upgrading and repair. Replacing them with VMware technology means we now have five times the storage capacity and 30 times the processing power, with a saving of $80,000."
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.”
Wyse Technology
By moving to VMware virtual infrastructure, Wyse Technology was able to improve productivity and performance without incurring the cost of expensive new hardware. We have saved $350,000 in avoided hardware investment costs and are saving $30,000 per year in operational costs.
“VMware Infrastructure 3 had reduced the frequency of outages for core
infrastructure services by 100 percent, saving 416 man hours per year
in unplanned maintenance. VMware Distributed Resource Scheduler
(DRS) and VMware High Availability (HA) are fully automated and
performing flawlessly. During the first 24 hours up and running, DRS
performed 40 VMotions and the users didn’t even notice a difference.
With our key infrastructure totally running on VMware technology,
we’ve not only reduced the IT management burden, but also lowered
our annual TCO to 20 percent of the original cost.”
XL Capital
XL Capital Reduces Costs by Rolling out Virtualized “Office in a Box” to Branch Offices
“Using VMware VirtualCenter, we were able to centrally manage all our virtual machines, including the servers in all our branch offices, from one central point. The total cost of ownership from an IT perspective for our branch offices dropped dramatically.”
