User Testimonials

Likelihood to Recommend	No answers on this topic	VMware Cloud Foundation for Disaster Recovery environment, when the client needs to deploy a pay-as-you-go service or if they need to migrate SAP workloads, you can use VMware Cloud Foundation for Classic and VPC. We are the unique SAP-Certified VMware cloud service provider. Incentivized GH Gabriel Hernandez IBM Cloud Technical Specialist Read full review
Pros	No answers on this topic	Ease of use - we don't want to spend extra hours trying to figure out a problem. Easy Setup - onboarding was simple and quick. Great documentation - Most of the answers to our questions are very easily accessible without additional help. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Cons	No answers on this topic	Support is horrible and or non-existent Documentation is out of date and incorrect for the most part IBM employees and salespeople are not aware of features or offerings Does not integrate the Zerto, only Veeam and has limited options for data migration Incentivized David Fertig VP Read full review
Usability	No answers on this topic	Everything is very clearly laid out. Being familiar with vSphere already, it was a quick transition over to the IBM environment. This allowed us to spend less time on the implementation phase and move quickly to actually utilizing the system on a day to day basis. Also, the performance is very good. No lagginess to the website like our previous on-prem environment. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Support Rating	No answers on this topic	Overall, just a great experience here. No one in my opinion gets a perfect 10/10 rating (no one is ever perfect), so 9/10 is probably as good as it gets! From initial planning to post implementation support, the IBM Cloud and professional services has been there for my group as much as we have needed them. Great job! Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Implementation Rating	No answers on this topic	IBM professional services helped us plan and implement the project with great success. They guided the project from planning, scoping, pre-implementation, testing, roll-out, then production and post-production support. We were very impressed with their knowledge of VMware and really appreciated their desire to make our project a success. I would highly recommend them!

Alternatives Considered	No answers on this topic	We chose VMware over Azure App Service because of the way that it was at that point natural and still offered similar cloud capacities that Azure would have acquired us. This permitted us to continue to utilize a similar interface and not need to relearn everything beginning to end with another item. Incentivized Rajesh Singh CEO & MD Read full review
Return on Investment	No answers on this topic	One of our business objectives was to ensure as close to 100% uptime of our servers and applications. This solution has helped us achieve that goal. Another goal was to try and minimize our datacenter footprint. This was achieved by using the product. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
