"Fantastic alternative to the big-HCI guys at a much lower cost, fiscally and administratively."

Extremely simple setup. The time to unbox, rack and stack and have VMs running is only a few hours. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"HE-151, a great solution for the SMB workplace"
What do you like best about Scale Computing Platform?

With some background IT knowledge, Scale Computing delivers a robust, easy product to set up and deploy. If you don't have an IT background, they can set up the entire environment to get your solution up and running. Their 24/7 support can guide you through any needed troubleshooting, and you can give them remote access to the system if advanced action is required. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Scale Computing Platform?

It would be helpful if the USB connections on the hardware could be attached to a VM for use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Scale Computing has simplified our virtual environment without loosing the features we need."

What do you dislike about Scale Computing Platform?

I do not have anything I dislike about Scale Computing at this point. The cost is comparable to other solutions. I need to spend a little more time learning all the features offered. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
