Independent analyst firm DCIG recognizes Scale
Computing in its three 2024-25 reports
INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 1, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- Scale Computing, the market leader in edge
computing, virtualization, and hyperconverged solutions, today
announced the company has been named one of the Top 5 VMware
Alternatives by the Data Center Intelligence Group (DCIG). Scale
Computing was recognized in all three of the 2024-25 DCIG TOP 5
Enterprise VMware vSphere Alternatives reports, including
Enterprise Global, Enterprise US, and SMB/Edge.
Broadcom's December 2023
announcement of sweeping changes to VMware licensing rocked the IT
industry. The surprise shift to a subscription model and reduced
licensing options have forced many organizations to reevaluate
their virtualization platform due to the resulting higher costs and
bundling of extraneous features. To help businesses make the best
choice when seeking a VMware vSphere alternative, DCIG has released
three new reports that provide enterprises with the top options for
solutions offering more favorable licensing terms and features.
"Scale Computing has long delivered a scalable, reliable, and
affordable virtualization solution for partners and their
customers," stated Jeff Ready, CEO
and co-founder of Scale Computing. "When Broadcom made the move to
discontinue the VMware Partner Program, we stepped up to help
partners navigate the industry upheaval with a superior solution
and a transformative experience with Scale Computing Platform, our
award-winning hyperconverged virtualization platform. We are proud
to be recognized by independent analysts at DCIG as a VMware
alternative and one of the leading virtualization solutions on the
market."
DCIG provides independent assessments on various products,
solutions, and enterprise technologies. The 2024-25 DCIG TOP 5
Enterprise VMware vSphere Alternatives reports evaluate 19 of
the 25 different solutions available and provide guidance on the
top five VMware alternatives that enterprises should consider as
they address Broadcom's VMware licensing changes. SC//Platform is
listed as one of the top five solution providers in all three of
the Enterprise Global, Enterprise US, and SMB/Edge DCIG
reports.
