vSphere Optimization Assessment (VOA)

What is it?

A best-practice assessment that shows how to proactively address the health, performance and capacity management of IT services through automated datacenter operations.

Benefits:• Health alerts about existing issues inside the

virtual environment, as well as risk alerts for potential anomalies that might become problems down the road.

• Optimization suggestions to right size the environment and reduce waste and reclaim resources

• The ability to plan for capacity, with the project tool, where they can simulate adding workloads, as well as new capacity when planning new IT projects.

How Does it Work?

• INSTALL vROps evaluation and let it run in your environment for 30 days.

• VIEW the reports around Configuration, Performance, Capacity and Density.

• HANDS ON feel for the product, with the ability to view real data collected from your environment

• KEEP this tool easily because once installed and configured all you will have to do is re-key it with a permanent license, once purchased.

Let’s see it in Action…
