"With Visual Studio Team Services in place, we’re doing agile release sprints of just three weeks, compared to release cycles that were significantly longer before."
"The efficiency and scalability Azure grants us in terms of our services to students will be a big help in achieving that mission."
"I've worked with other big software vendors in the past and this is a much more productive and enjoyable relationship. We're connected with Microsoft at all points across the business where we've got a vast array of tools at our disposal."
"The difference in how we can provide service to our customers in April of 2020 and less than a year later is night and day. Thanks to Microsoft Teams, we not only get customers into an organized queue without being on hold; we take care of everyone in a timely manner."
"We needed to provide a solution that was safe and scalable for the retailer while also protecting customer privacy And the support we got from Microsoft and our Microsoft account executive greatly accelerated the success of the curbside pickup app rollout."
"We thoroughly assessed competing solutions in our quest for the best-in-breed technology to use for our application. We chose Microsoft Teams as the path to increased sophistication and all-important customer privacy."
"We’ve had rave reviews from our customers about the great experience using our curbside pick-up at the store. They’re blown away by the communication and the level of service they’re getting via Teams, and the resulting trust means more overall shopping."
"With an on-premises solution, 50 to 60 percent of the time we were powering resources that weren’t being used. But with the autoscale feature in Azure Virtual Desktop, we only use electricity when resources are active. This has had a massive impact for us."
"Even if our original solution had been scalable enough to provide remote access for everyone, we would still have had to support and maintain the new hardware it required when our campuses reopen. It made sense to go to Azure for its cloud benefits."
"Three hours after the initial meeting with our IT partner, we launched an Azure Virtual Desktop pilot with 160 users. Within a week, we scaled up to 2,200 concurrent connections. Staff and students could then work remotely and collaborate."
"We use Azure Virtual Desktop to offer improved services and more flexibility in how students learn, like the ability to access Windows from other operating systems on a variety of hardware platforms."
"We live and breathe stem cell transplantation; we rely on our partner network, which lives and breathes technology, to make sure we’ve got the latest tech, security, and integration on all our platforms."
"Reducing time spent on admin gives us time to support transplant centers better. We’re able to be more proactive and responsive."
"The industry needed to go much further—add intelligence, generate information, connect all the dots, and provide a complete platform to reimagine, configure, and build end-to-end business workflows."
"With Azure Virtual Desktop, we can complete our annual security assessment to meet industry standards around managing Azure Virtual Desktop. We can rest assured those devices always have the latest security updates and antivirus definitions."
