Customer Success
vRealize helped us a lot to scale and expand into this hybrid / multi-cloud model because we weren’t able to bridge this gap of having different interfaces from different providers. We benefited the most from providing the same experience to users when it didn’t matter from where the infrastructure was running.
- IT Infrastructure Manager, GFK
vRealize Network Insight...helped us learn more about our applications and how to move them.
- Dale Ramsey, Director of Infrastructure, EMPLOYERS
CloudHealth by VMware, for the first time, creates a single view of our cloud activity, across multiple territories. We’re no longer hunting for information. It’s all there at the click of a button.
