Scale Computing wins Best Midmarket Strategy award at 2016 Midmarket CIO Forum

INDIANAPOLIS, IN--(Marketwired - November 10, 2016) - Scale Computing, the market leader in hyperconverged storage, server and virtualization solutions for midsized companies, announced today that it has been honored with the award for Best Midmarket Strategy during the 2016 Midmarket CIO Forum, hosted by Boardroom Events October 23-25 at La Cantera Resort in San Antonio, Texas.

Awards recognize vendors solving business challenges with impressive financial impacts, and highlight the best in technology and marketing collaboration in the midmarket. Scale Computing's focus on midsized customers and dedication to providing the proper balance of capabilities and operating costs makes the company a frequent recipient of industry awards, and this one follows three recent wins at The Channel Company's Midsize Enterprise Summit® (MES) West 2016 Conference in September.

"Forward-thinking vendors recognized by the midmarket speaks to our mission to help executives on their professional journeys," said Charles Badoian, President of Boardroom Events. "These awards are a testament to the relevance of the providers, research and insights."

"Scale helped us to look at the way we do business for our organization and helped us streamline and save money on storage," said Benny Yazdanpanahi, CIO for the City of Tyler, Texas.

"We are dedicated to supplying organizations in this market segment with appropriate products and services in terms of smart technologies, hands-on support, and no sticker shock or headaches as they expand and grow," said Jeff Ready, CEO, and co-founder of Scale Computing. "Midmarket decisions about IT infrastructure are too often reactive, based on a current problem, and it's wonderful that our strategy of advocating simplicity, availability and scalability through hyperconvergence has been honored with this award. We truly believe that this is the right way to conquer the challenges these users face."

Scale Computing's HC3® platform brings storage, servers, virtualization and management together in a single, comprehensive system. With no virtualization software to license and no external storage to buy, HC3 products lower out-of-pocket costs and radically simplify the infrastructure needed to keep applications running. HC3 products make the deployment and management of a highly available and scalable infrastructure as easy to manage as a single server.
