“VMware has been very critical of Hyper-V, but when we looked at the whole Microsoft cloud solution from top to bottom, we saw that it better aligned with the skill set of our staff, the applications we were using, and the platforms we were running.” Pella

Support for a modern work style

• Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI): simplified management and reduced cost of implementations

• Optimized branch office wide area network (WAN) bandwidth use

• Ability for remote users to more securely access internal resources without a virtual private network (VPN)

Cost savings and increased efficiencies

• Reduced storage costs with Storage Spaces and other storage enhancements

• Increased server/administrator ratio through Windows PowerShell and multimachine management

• Increased uptime with Cluster-Aware Updating and transparent failover

Comprehensive cloud platform

• Complete, built-in virtualization platform

• Enterprise-class scale and performance, so you can virtualize every application

• Ability to achieve business continuity with inbox disaster recovery solutions

• Best-in-class hybrid cloud experience with a common set of technologies
