Spotlight on the Benefits
Today’s ambitious SMBs need to find not just small, one-time savings and improvements within how they work. They also need to consider whole new ways of utilizing IT to help the business grow and compete more efficiently over time. Virtualization is a key tool in that quest and VMware is the industry-leader for growing organizations looking to move to virtualization.

Great reasons to move to VMware virtualization
Standardization.
Virtualization software runs on industry-standard AMD and Intel x86-based hosts, no matter what operating system you use.

Resource accessibility.
It offers access to all physical server resources, including CPU, memory, storage, networking and peripherals – even components that reside on other networked servers and devices.

Efficiency.
Because multiple virtual machines can be run on a single server, you can optimize how your hardware is used.

Mobility.
Each virtual machine is contained within its own software ‘compartment’, which means that virtual machines can be provisioned, copied, backed up and restored as easily as any other software – even when the machines are running other processes. This allows system managers to maintain availability and reduce costly downtime.

Flexibility.
By running legacy operating systems on a virtual machine, the IT team can continue to support older, mission-critical applications without maintaining separate older, slower servers running proprietary operating systems or systems that are no longer supported.

Speed.
Without having to deploy a physical server for each new application, IT can quickly test and then deploy new applications.
