Overall Satisfaction with Scale Computing Platform

We use Scale Computing for our school corporation to have quick, trustworthy, reliable, and easy to use virtual machines for all of our server needs. We don't have a lot of time for setting up or maintaining and Scale Computing makes this extremely easy. This platform already existed when I joined the corporation nearly a year ago and was simple enough to use that I was able to spin up new servers within about 5 minutes without needing to ask anyone how and having no training. Everything was done with just a few clicks and all the tools were put on the server with the Scale Tools they provide to make setting up the new server even easier. Adding storage space or memory is no problem at all. I also love that I don't have to worry about any physical machines breaking down, as Scale will automatically move the VMs to the other physical machines so there is no downtime at all while we can replace broken equipment. I can't say enough about the ease of use and reliability of this platform.
  • Reliable
  • Great and helpful support for any questions I have had
  • Easy to use
  • The UI could be a little "prettier"
I used support once and they were super helpful, responded quickly, and very friendly.
We run all of our on-prem servers through Scale Computing. As a school corporation we have many uses for servers and need to be able to act fast and in a way that is easy to understand without being an expert. This is a perfect solution for that.
  • I don't think I can put a number on how much money and time they have saved us. This is easily the best on-prem server management solution I've seen.
This does everything I need with an on-prem server setup for virtual machines.

Setting up snapshot backups is extremely easy. You can close, export, and import servers with a single button.
