"Overall, I'd do it again"
What do you like best about Scale Computing Platform?

Scale is very user friendly. I've not set out a task that I could not complete. Support is friendly and timely. Implementation was a breeze with some network knowledge. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Scale Computing Platform?

No real downsides other than a small lack of compatibility with some virtual hard drive formats, but even those we have been able to overcome. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Amazing Product with incredible support"
What do you like best about Scale Computing Platform?

Ease of use and the knowledge of the Support team Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Scale Computing Platform?

I feel the built-in Sacle Guest tools are not always the latest drivers. I find myself looking for the latest RedHat drivers to better support my requirments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Highly scalable and reliable platform"
What do you like best about Scale Computing Platform?

Ease of use and administration. Hands down the simplest in the space. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Scale Computing Platform?

You have to have an entire server/node to expand a cluster. For example, if you only need storage space, the options are only to upgrade hard drives (assuming you're not at capacity already) or add another full node. Not a deal breaker but it could be costly if you only need to address a single component such as memory or storage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Virtualization Simplified!"
What do you like best about Scale Computing Platform?

Its so straightforward to use, miles ahead of hyperv or other virtualization platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Scale Computing Platform?

I really dont have any complaints, if I had to say, I would like to see more of the base software administration abilities, to be able to clear our own errors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Implementation from start to finish is a breeze. The feature set, such as replication, backup capabilities, and admin interface are straightforward and easy to use.

"Reliable and Communicative Partner"
What do you like best about Scale Computing Platform?

I highly recommend Scale to anyone looking for a reliable and communicative partner. Their customer service has made a significant positive impact on my experience, and I look forward to working with them again in the future for both new product/ service quotes and renewal quotes. They are pro-active in their communications and everyone I have spoken to has been very pleasant. We have many customers looking for an alternative to VMware due to the recent change in pricing structure, and I think Scale will be an excellent recommendation for an alternative. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Scale Computing Platform?

I think they could make the partner portal a bit more intuitive to use, but it still functions well and I am able to find the information that I need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Excellent Solution"
What do you like best about Scale Computing Platform?

Previously a VMware user and now I would not go back, SCALE makes everything so much easier. Ease of integration and use, user friendly, implementing new VMs, creating and deploying VMs, hardware configurations, to snap shot schedules, to firmware updates, and restoring VMs from snap shots are all made super easy by SCALE. Customer support is very responsive and helpful with any issues. Just implemented a new Ubuntu server by importing the .vmdk file right to a new VM and done in less than 5 minutes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Scale Computing Platform?

VLAN and networking configuration. But I haven't touched on it alot so far. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
