Scale Computing Executive Spotlight: VMware Alternatives
The ripple effects of the VMware acquisition by Broadcom at the close of 2023 continues to be felt across the IT world, sparking uncertainty among customers and partners alike. From rising costs to discontinued product lines and shifting roadmaps, many organizations are now reevaluating their reliance on VMware. If you’ve been thinking about upgrading your systems, simplifying your IT infrastructure, and saving significant management time, you’re not alone.
In a new video, Scale Computing CEO Jeff Ready, sheds some light on how Scale Computing offers a practical and cost-effective VMware alternative for those who feel trapped in a cycle of escalating costs and operational headaches.
As Jeff notes, many customers have built their VMware-based systems incrementally over time, leading to a tangled "ball of twine" that feels increasingly convoluted, costly, and hard to manage. While the thought of migrating to a new solution can seem daunting, it’s also an opportunity to embrace a simpler, more streamlined future. Scale Computing’s solutions are purpose-built to simplify IT operations, enabling organizations to reduce management overhead by up to 90%.
One of the key concerns for IT leaders exploring VMware alternatives is compatibility. "Can this alternative run my workloads?" is often the first question. Scale Computing answers this with confidence, offering a seamless migration that doesn’t take years of effort. Jeff highlights how the SC//Platform effortlessly integrates with existing systems, from backups to security tools, minimizing disruption and easing the path to modernization.
But the benefits go beyond just functionality. Organizations that make the switch to Scale Computing experience transformative changes in how IT is managed. With a system designed from the ground up to minimize complexity, IT teams are freed from the endless cycle of ‘bolted- on’ fixes and managing siloed systems. As Jeff explains in the video, customers frequently return after a few months to share how Scale Computing’s solutions have "changed their life as an IT person."
If you’re ready to simplify, reduce costs, and embrace a modernized way to manage your infrastructure, there’s never been a better time to explore your options. Watch the full video to hear directly from Jeff and learn how Scale Computing can transform your IT operations today.
