| Without Virtual-IT | With Virtual-IT from Moyo Group | |
| Physical Servers | Buy and support a physical server for every application | Consolidate many applications to virtual servers on a single hardware device |
| Power/Energy | Waste energy powering and air conditioning unneeded servers | Go Green! Save energy by using fewer physical servers |
| Data Center Cost | Pay premium for always-increasing hardware, space, power | Save 70% of costs for hardware, data center space, and power |
| Computing Capacity | Most compute capacity goes unused | Utilize physical server capacity optimally by consolidating workloads |
| Data Center Space | Must pay for more space to expand. May run out of space and force expensive data center move | Consolidate servers to use less expensive, scarce data center space |
| Creation of Engineering and QA Environments | Requires project to deploy new hadware, delaying schedules and customer commitments | Instantly create new development and test environments, rapid response to customer requests and opportunities |
| Application Availability | High availability requires costly, complex solutions | High availability uses existing hardware, is inexpensive to set up and maintain |
| Disaster Recovery | Failure of a server causes lengthy downtime and intense IT involvement | Applications can be transferred automatically to a healthy server when a hardware failure occurs with little or no IT staff involvement and no downtime |
| Configuration Flexibility | Constant changes require IT projects, scheduled downtime | Moving applications to hardware with available capacity is easy, and can be automated |
| Workload of IT Staff | IT is always behind, working long hours. Lots of servers to maintain, customer and engineering requirements constantly changing | Fewer fire drills for IT, less capacity required to manage, can complete many changes without scheduling downtime |
| Virtual Server Skills | Send IT staff to off-site virtual server training, on-the-job learning by trial and error | Moyo Group’s well-trained, experienced staff implements solution and transfers maintenance knowledge to in-house staff |
