Under 10 nodes and less than 2 sites, I would rather sell and support Scale. It's just as fast as any other HCI and more stable then VXRail. It's easier to setup and deploy, and get VM's running, and replicating between CLUSTERS. The only reason I would not consider Scale …
Price was outstanding, and competitive equipment wasn't an issue due to them using various brands and models. Sales reps were responsive, professional, and jumped through time hurdles with ease. Partnership with Acronis is a huge benefit, and the Carbonite license to move …
Solutions Architect - Infrastructure Solutions Group
Chose Scale Computing Platform
To be honest hyper-converged infrastructure products dramatically show improvement from start up. Providing a single pane of glass management is important in any of these HCI products. I like any/all of the HCI products I've worked with thus far.
To put it simply, Scale HC3 does most of what the big guys do at a much lower cost. Their deduplication may not be as strong as some competitors, but there are diminishing returns with it as the costs go way up with the other solutions. With Scale, I found I could buy double …
We purchased about 3 years ago. At the time the pricing of these other options was massively higher than Scale HC3. Most of the other options have steep learning curves. Nutanix like HC3 runs on a KVM architecture making it similar but other than a few bells and whistles I …
Scale Computing HC3 was not only cheaper than every solution that we looked at. It also had the easiest interface to learn and the least amount of hardware. We eliminated any and all setup/implementation costs as we were able to set up the cluster ourselves. All of the other …
Scale offered an all in one solution, with its own hypervisor. Having a single pain of glass for storage and computing makes it way easier to support. As a one man IT dept I was looking for as simple, yet robust as possible option. Scale fit that need, as well as came in under …
Ease of use and TOC. We needed to go with something simple as our environment is not complex. The members of the IT team are lower level from a technical standpoint and can easily administer the system.
Scale Computing HC3 was way better than the competition in price and features and ease of use. What they give up on certain more advanced features they make up in ease of use and reliability and I wasn't going to use those advanced features anyways. They also are light years …
We evaluated offerings from HP/SimpliVity, Dell-EMC/VxRail Appliances and Nutanix. We choose Scale based on them being the best value for our needs. One of the way's Scale does this is by not requiring a separate hypervisor with additional licensing. Also they are less …
We chose Scale because of the people first, and the product second. The desire to truly want our business and the commitment to be hands on in our deployment was a huge factor. The product also is a much less expensive solution to the others I mentioned but packed with …
