“Costs for similar systems and performance with cloud-based services were night and day. However, with BMC, we found the best of both worlds — fantastic hardware performance at a lower cost. We can upgrade our servers on the go without trying to figure out which services we need to scale and how much that is going to cost us. With BMC, everything is upfront, transparent, and really easy to understand.”
Grant Street, Co-founder/CEO, My Party Album Inc.
“We wanted to focus our efforts on developing and improving our software. But our tight budget and staff shortage prevented us from deploying our own infrastructure, especially one with strict security standards our applications and workloads demand. The administrative overhead would have simply been too much for us to keep up with.”
Ed Shaffer, CSO, Kaligent
“phoenixNAP had that great combination of being not a one-size-fits-all shop. It could be customized and boutique as we are for our clients, but it also really overlaid well with what we’re good at and what we’re looking to do.”
Kyle Rogers, Cloud Specialist, CMA
