Customer Results – Consolidation with VMware ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],"If we had it to do over again, we'd install WAN optimizers before starting consolidation. We ended up having to play 'catch up,' and doing it fast…Our users are much happier now. No one notices or cares anymore that we've consolidated our datacenters. It's completely a non-issue now." -- Mike Williams, CIO

Customer Results – Consolidation with VMware © 2006 RIVERBED TECHOLOGY, INC – CONFIDENTIAL “ Without the combination of VMware and Riverbed’s Steelhead WAN Optimization appliances we could never have achieved consolidation. With the joint solution, we have been able to eliminate 66% of our servers and accelerate our VMware disaster recovery traffic increasing our WAN capacity on an average by 2.5x. To make it even better, we still get the daily benefits of improved WAN performance at our branch offices for our attorney’s and other professionals.“ - Mandi Turner, Director of Information Technology, Greenebaum, Doll & McDonald

Customer Proof Point ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],“ With the RSP, Strand can run local branch services like print servers on the Steelhead appliance without the need for a dedicated server. This will save us $10 to $15k in equipment costs for new offices, and that doesn't include the continued cost of maintaining additional servers. “ Justin Marthaler IT, Strand
