Cloudistics, the cloud software platform company, today announced record customer adoption of its Cloudistics platform over legacy infrastructure. Cloudistics has gone beyond the limits of legacy virtualization and hyperconverged infrastructures with a full-fledged private cloud that offers a premium experience for organizations that want to escape the status quo and transform IT service delivery within their organization. The company saw a 400% growth in customer adoption over legacy models from last year to this year.

"Cloudistics is a remarkable shift in experience from what we had previously," said Phillip Langeberg, Corporate IT Director of Massanutten. "We needed something that would not only save us money but work for the long haul and coupled with the white glove treatment we received, it was more than what we expected. From accelerated time to value, less pressure on our IT organization, streamlined support, and better safety in the case of downtime, even our major updates take very little time or effort."

Massanutten Sees 30 Percent CapEx Reduction with Unprecedented Operational Benefits

Massanutten Resort, a 6000-acre all-season resort in Massanutten, Virginia built an industry-standard infrastructure for a medium-sized organization. Within only a few years, they were encountering unacceptable limitations. Rather than purchasing more servers and storage for a legacy virtualization platform, Massanutten decided to work with Cloudistics and chose two Cloudistics Cloud Platforms.

Cloudivus Embraces Cloudistics and Saves Customers 30 Percent

After two months spent getting up close and personal with the Cloudistics Platform - setting up containers, infrastructure, and seeing the API and the integration that is possible, Joseph Funaro dusted off an idea he had shelved years ago because of the impossibility of making it cost effective on the VMware or Hyper-V platforms, and breathed new life into his vision of a decentralized, democratized cloud. The company is Cloudivus, LLC and its product, The People's Cloud, will launch in Q1, 2019 with a 30 percent cost savings over current public cloud offerings.

"Once I had my hands in the Cloudistics product, it was the dollars and cents, and the fact that I was being handed a platform as an appliance that made me recognize that my vision could be realized. I had just built a similar VMware-based system for a client, and here I was building a Cloudistics solution for a different client, one that compared apples-to-apples with the previous solution, for less than half the price," Funaro explained.

Global Financial Trading Firm Reduces CapEx by 70 Percent Compared to Legacy Infrastructure

A major financial services and trading firm based in Texas, with locations around the world, chose the Cloudistics Cloud Platform to replace its legacy virtualized IT infrastructure. The company successfully deployed new sites in a day and half and reduced time spent on routine tasks by 60 percent. Consequently, Cloudistics has become the backbone of their business expansion plans because they can manage more sites with fewer people, enabling them to grow in ways other technologies couldn't enable.

Healthcare Research Labs Taps Cloudistics Over Hyperconverged Solutions

A major medical research institution out of Maryland relied on a legacy virtualization platform for research workloads. With Cloudistics, the research institute was able to have over 200 virtual machines running databases, scientific computing, and analytics workloads without hidden costs, the need for specialists and without add-on support contracts or licensing. Cloudistics has enabled them to scale their hardware granularly, allowing them to add compute independently from storage for better CapEx controls and hardware utilization.

"Cloudistics goes beyond virtualization by delivering the simplicity and experience of the public cloud-but within a customer's secure data center," said Dan Mroz, VP of Worldwide Marketing of Cloudistics. "Working hand in hand with customers this year, we demonstrated game-changing operational efficiencies by resolving a broad range of legacy operational pains; whether it be the need for white glove customer experience, streamlining IT service delivery or simply alleviating unnecessary frustrations from legacy infrastructure. Quite simply, we strive to be the answer to customers who are asking for a more efficient way forward - an all-inclusive private cloud platform that disrupts the costs and complexities of other approaches."

This news concludes a bumper year for Cloudistics that included:

• The launch of its game-changing Application Marketplace with dozens of application and operating system templates
• Adding new capabilities with three integrated tools: Access Manager, Metering Manager, and Migration Manager for accelerated administrative efficiency without third-party add-ons
• Secured 57% growth in reseller and service provider partnerships
• The Lenovo partnership, co-launching the ThinkAgile CP Series composable cloud platform, a ‘cloud-in-a-box' that offers all of the conveniences and ease-of-use of a public cloud environment secured behind a customer's own data center firewall.
