Arizona State University

VMware ACE Head of the Class at Arizona State University

“VMware ACE is a powerful tool that enables us to set up standardized computing environments for students. Using the software, we can quickly deploy new computing environments for students in computer labs without concern about breaking the existing environment. We also deploy our faculty tested computing environment to MBA student’s personal and/or corporate laptops allowing students to work together easily.”

— Scott Worthington, Technology Support Analyst, W. P. Carey School of Business

Bowdoin College

Using VMware Infrastructure 3, Bowdoin College Has Partnered with Loyola Marymount University on the West Coast to Build a Co-Located Data Center, Boasting Cross-Country Disaster Recovery

“If you are using VMware technology in production, you are two-thirds of the way to a robust disaster recovery plan before you even begin to design it. You get portable servers with flexible hardware requirements and ease of management. The new capabilities in VMware Infrastructure 3 of Distributed Resource Scheduler (DRS) and High Availability (HA), for instance, let you take advantage of resource pools and dynamically move virtual machines as needs change. Bowdoin has a VMware-first policy for any new system—not only because of the disaster recovery benefits of VMware virtualization, but also because of the other cost savings and efficiencies that VMware software enables.”

— Tim Antonowicz, Senior Systems Engineer

Brinsworth Comprehensive School

VMware Provides Leading Virtualization Solutions That Increase Scalability And Manageability Of Both Data Centers And Desktop Environments

“We have three IT staff here supporting 700 machines—I don’t think that would really be possible without tools like VMware Virtual Desktop Infrastructure.”

— David Orridge, IT Manager

Community College of Baltimore County

Community College of Baltimore County Budget Goes Further With VMware Virtual Infrastructure

"Certainly we are purchasing less hardware, but more importantly, we are cutting expenses on maintenance, energy and real estate. We are getting more out of the money we spend, so our infrastructure will last longer and perform better. These are the cost savings that, over time, help make an organization truly efficient."

— Benjamin Thompson , Senior Network Engineer/Manager

Curtin University of Technology

VMware Virtual Infrastructure 3 Teaches Curtin University of Technology a Lesson in Data-Center Management

“The virtualized infrastructure enabled by VMware Infrastructure 3 completely changes our approach to the data center, where we now see it as a pool of resources that can be dynamically allocated according to the university’s needs. Near immediate server provisioning, support for a range of operating systems and a smart DR plan has changed the nature of our data center.”

— Kim Wisniewski , Systems Engineer

Dominican University of California

Using VMware Infrastructure 3 Products To Virtualize Its Application Servers, Dominican University Dramatically Cut Disaster Recovery Time, Reduced Hardware Replacement Cost and Improved CPU Utilization

“In the past, if a server failed, disaster recovery time would have taken anywhere from one to three days. With VMware technology, recovery time is reduced to just hours.”

— Jackson Ratcliffe , Executive Director of Information Technology

ETH Zürich

Die ETH Zürich hat Platz- und Kühlprobleme einfach dank Virtualisierung gelöst – zudem hat man nun eine höhere Flexibilität und um einiges schnelle Bereitstellungszeiten

“Dank Virtualisierung können wir heute Server schnell und kostengünstig bereitstellen und diese mit minimalem Betreuungsaufwand betreiben.”

— Jürgen Winkelmann, Leiter Systemdienste

Faith Baptist Bible College

VMware Server Provides a Cost-Free Way for Organizations to Virtualize and Consolidate Their Servers

“The main benefit of VMware Server is that it allows me to be more in control of the technology that I’m responsible for—and that’s a very good thing.”

— George Dougherty , CTO

George Washington University

VMware Infrastructure 3 Creates A Virtual Infrastructure That Allows Multiple Servers To Be Easily Hosted And Administered.

"Our system administrators appreciate VMware Infrastructure 3 for a variety of reasons: the speed of deployment, flexibility, time savings…the list goes on.”

— Brian Mislavsky, Information Systems Engineer

Georgian College

Use VMware Software to Add Virtual Instead of Physical Machines, Processing the Workload of 25 Physical Servers with Less Than Half that Number

“The initial driver for virtualization was cost avoidance: we were able to do the work of 25 servers with just 12. Besides maximized hardware utilization, minimized disruptions, and the ability to consolidate and share resources, probably the biggest benefit I see from virtualization is saving a considerable amount of time, thanks to simplified management.”

— Arlene McDonald, Manager, IT Operations

Hackensack University Medical

VMware Infrastructure 3 Creates a Flexible and Scalable Virtual Infrastructure That Frees Up Data Center Resources and Supports Growth

“Virtualization is no longer a ‘maybe’ for enterprise IT environments— it’s a necessity. We need to reduce costs and make more efficient use of resources, and VMware Infrastructure 3 helps us achieve that goal.”

— Benjamin Bordonaro, CTO

Heald College

Heald College Keeps Classes on Track with VMware Workstation

"VMware Workstation gives our instructors the flexibility to do anything they need to do without affecting other classes, and it makes the transition from one class to another much smoother. It's really enhanced our ability to offer hands-on experience with lots of different configurations to our information technology graduates."

— Matt Ormond , Academic Computing Manager

Hull College

VMware Infrastructure 3 Delivers 12:1 Server Consolidation and High Availability of Key Applications

“VMware has provided us with a really flexible and robust infrastructure. We can now deploy new applications in minutes rather than days and routine management is so much simpler. Virtualization has freed up so much of our time that we have been able to start working on new initiatives that we would never previously have been able to consider.”

— Jody Popplewell , Senior Network Administrator

Hull College

Hull College Reduces CO2 Emissions By Over 1,500 Tonnes Per Year With VMware Technology

"The expansion of our data centre was affecting our ability to deliver services promptly and efficiently and we were also becoming concerned about our power and cooling overheads. Virtualization has helped us drastically reduce our power and cooling requirements while making our overall infrastructure far more efficient.”

— Jody Popplewell , Senior Network Administrator

Indiana University, Kelly School of Business

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.”

— Jared Beard,, Associate Director of Information Technology Labs and Studios

Los Angeles Universal Preschool

VMware Technology Enables Rapid Deployment of a Test and Development Environment Without the Higher Costs Associated with Physical Machines

“For us, VMware Infrastructure 3 has been a lifesaver—it allows us to test and develop new applications quickly and affordably. I can’t think of a single organization—big or small—where VMware technology wouldn’t be able to improve IT efficiencies across the board.”

— Robert Lazo , Director, Systems & Operations

Manukau Institute of Technology

VMware Aids New Zealand Education Institute in Reduction of Server Hardware, and Better Resource Management

“We used to associate a service with a server, now we have a pool of resources. If a server fails, the service isn’t compromised. So, you get a very, very efficient use of the hardware resource.”

— Mike Ellerton , IT Influencer and Architect

Ohio State University

VMware Virtual Infrastructure Enables IT Upgrades at Reduced Costs and Improved CPU Usage

“The virtual machines running on ESX Server worked great. They stayed up and worked well. Believe the hype about VMware virtualization. It works!”

— Tim Smith , Director of Humanities Information Systems
