"Beam has paid for itself by providing the insight we need to control costs. In one instance, we uncovered an API on a development environment that did not need to be running, and shut it off, saving thousands of dollars per month."

"They can’t work without these environments. In the past, cumbersome adjustments were necessary for PC operating system updates, but this troublesome step has been completely eliminated with Nutanix. The approximate 5x improvement in disk I/O performance has been achieved. The display response of our business applications, such as word processing …

"The HP server/SAN solution became complex and unwieldy when VDI was rolled out. Nutanix was amazingly fast to implement, easy to use and cost so much less. Nutanix has taken all the complexity out."

"I'm no longer nervous about the old hard drive SAN failing. With Nutanix in place, I feel like I have a good support structure if there is an issue… Having a single point of contact for compute and storage, having them proactively watch it – these things are very helpful …

"Nutanix was the solution that enabled us to implement VDI. It provided what we needed for effectively no more money than we were spending on individual PCs."

"It’s a cutting-edge technology. This is where datacenter infrastructure is going or at least where I perceive it going, bringing storage up to the compute layer gives increased performance and reduced cost. I think Nutanix has a topnotch team with a great vision for the future of the converged data …

"My key requirements were to have something that was simple, easy to manage, and ideally a single pane of glass. I wanted a solution that was very powerful and also very versatile. For me, Nutanix ticked all of those boxes."

"We were focused on flexibility and innovation. We were looking for a partner who would be able to understand our business needs. With Nutanix, there was a willingness to listen and propose an innovative solution."

"So many I know around Brisbane have looked at Nutanix in recent months and have said, Converged infrastructure is a giant leap forward in datacenter architecture."

"The Nutanix solution will make any manager’s life simpler. It’s easy to deploy, easy to scale out. It does not take much to get from proof of concept to production. The key there is it is self-managing. It enables my team to focus and be more creative in other areas."

"I liked the small footprint, the simplicity, and the fact that we don’t have to deal with traditional SAN infrastructure. It was literally as simple as this take it out of the box, turn it on, connect the nodes and we’re off and running."

"We were very impressed by how much compute power, memory and storage space is available in just one unit. It’s all self-contained."

"I know my engineers were awed about the technology and how easy it was setting things up and the performance of the virtual desktops was amazing. The whole installation of the Nutanix Block and configuration was just so user friendly. I can’t say enough about that."

"The original solution was not going to be adequate because of the added IOPS and cost associated with expanding the SAN to support the numbers. Even then, there was no guarantee that the SAN was going to be able to handle the boot storm that would happen every morning, so …

"Whether our customers require a cloud based or on-premise solution, through our partnership with Nutanix we can now deliver SAN-Free data centres with almost infinite scalability and predictable performance."
