Overall Satisfaction with Scale Computing Platform

We use Scale Computing Platform to virtualize 12+ production Servers on premise. It is a simple way to manage a large number of virtual machines and because there are 3 nodes with automatic failover, we significantly reduce our risk of downtime and data loss.
  • Virtualization
  • Managment
  • Failover
  • Redundancy
  • Automation
  • Interface could improve
  • VM import via Virtual Drive support
  • Veeam Support
Support is quick and easy. There is a support web portal but they also replied to all my e-mails and helped me create tickets as well.
Domain Controller, Databases, Fileserver, IIS, LDAP, Campus Wide notification server, Help Desk Server, Print Server, Wi-Fi Controller, PW Reset Server. Everything runs smooth, no issues.
  • Ease of use
  • Peace of Mind
  • Upfront Cost was increased over Dell and Hyper-V
I have used both Hyper-V and VMWare. I continue to run a Hyper-V cluster and think it's great. More work to setup than the Scale nodes. VMWare is too expensive for education and not worth the time in my opinion.
