Do you really need that much storage?

Overallocation and proliferation of data copies inflate your storage requirements dramatically. On average more than half of the space allocated to storage volumes remains unused. Hundreds or even thousands of copies of a single business file can be made over its lifecycle. Virtualization, whilst consolidating server resources, further increases the need for storage capacity.

That’s a lot of gigabytes you could get rid of - and save money

Virtual Works and NetApp can help your Storage get lean and efficient, particularly in virtualized environments. Whether you use platforms from VMware, Microsoft or Citrix, we let you get the most out of virtualization. NetApp actually guarantees you will reduce your storage requirements in a virtualised environment by at least 50% (with NetApp storage) or by at least 35% (with third party storage, including EMC, HP, or HDS).*

Save money by reducing capital expenditure and operational expenses. Keep your business up and running with fault tolerant storage and protect your data with more efficient backup and recovery. Make your IT team’s life easier by simplifying storage administration.
