Why VDI is good…….
• Sell servers to new sections of each business• Sales cycle is reduced to weeks/months not years• VDI needs 8GB space per user on shared storage• Roll outs are 4 times faster than server consolidation• It kicks Dell run rate business hard• It is a Trojan horse sale• Consolidation sells £2,000 per exiting server• VDI sells £500 per user
– And organisations have loads more users than servers!
