Join the Thousands of Satisfied IT Professionals using Skytap
We selected Skytap because it was able to offer a seamless integration of the IBM i applications into our existing Azure environment. Skytap also gave us access to newer-generation hardware, which would help to improve performance and simplify infrastructure management. We run a lean IT team at Gourmet Group, so this was the perfect solution for our needs.
“Perfect solution”
Suresh Kumarasan,
IT Manager
Every time the topic of moving to the cloud was brought up, the idea was just so daunting. We thought we’d have to re-platform everything, and so the ability to take our environment and move it up into the cloud was very successful. The move was so smooth.
“So smooth”
Aaron Wetherfhold,
IT Director
Skytap on Azure proved an excellent solution for running the IBM Power migration and ongoing infrastructure management. The Skytap service gives us flexibility for matching cloud server capacity to our workloads, helping us to operate as cost efficiently as possible.
“Cost-efficient”
