IBM Cloud for VMware Solutions Cloud Adoption

Migrating the VMware stack to IBM Cloud has enabled ease of access for our organization as well as a level of redundancy that did not exist prior. It has enabled us to replicate and distribute as we grow and increase in our requirements.

Alternatives Considered

We looked at Citrix but the model was not what ideal in considering all our business needs.

Likelihood to Recommend

In a situation where backbone data center reliability is essential for redundancy and speed of operation, it excels. Another situation would be in deploying replication to other sites as the ease of access makes this a snap.

Scalability, reliability and sensibility.
