Customer Quote:
"Investing for long-term IT efficiency is fundamental for any business, but the energy savings and flexibility we get with Dell's virtualization solutions have made substantial, immediate business impacts for New York-based retail software business and our Boston data center. Our data center consolidation savings with Dell solutions gave us an immediate 50 percent decrease in energy expenses - $20,000 average savings each month. Yet when we need to scale our capability with seasonal demand, we simply copy the virtual environment onto new virtual machines and have extra capacity on Dell PowerEdge servers ready in minutes instead of hours. That kind of savings and business flexibility makes all the difference for me and my business." -- Tim Maliyil, president and CEO, Data Guard Systems.
