Customers Accelerate Application Lifecycle

“We can give our end users a virtual machine in half an hour, when it takes two to three weeks to spec out, order, and set up a physical one.”

Bill Frost, Senior IS Engineer, Boise Inc.

“With VMware, if I want to test a subset of our servers for upgrades or migrations, I can take them down, clone them, and I’ve got servers I can use for our test."

Whitney Kuszmaulm, The Cleveland Indians Company
