Overall Satisfaction with Scale Computing HC3
HC3 is being used across the organisation. It has allowed us to refresh operating systems, migrate from 32bit OS to 64Bit operating systems. Snapshotting and cloning is very easy and new server VMs are built in rapid time.
- Snapshots - very straightforward and can be scheduled
- Cloning - easy to do from a snapshot
- Creating VMs - is easy
- Performance indicators - which VMs are utilising the most IOPs
- Improved browser support
Exchange Server 2010 - HC3 has been integral to running our own Exchange server on-premises than in the cloud and this is more cost effective for us. The service is replicated daily to a DR cluster and provides 24x7 email access to our users. Our ERP application running on SQL is served on the HC3 cluster providing reliable performance and data integrity is maintained.
- Our server uptime has increased tenfold
- RTO and RPO windows have decreased dramatically
We moved from a VMware ESXi environment with costly support and complex licensing structure to HC3. Though we did DD on a number of vendors, nutanix, simplivity, they relied on VMware hypervisor and still required the complex licensing. HC3 straightforward model and customer support, no hidden costs, with a simply and easy to manage UI.
