Construction Company Deploys V-locity I/O Reduction Software to Improve Speed on Citrix and SQL Applications

A Teichert & Son, Inc. knew they needed to optimize their infrastructure performance as their user base and workloads increased with the growth and expansion of their company. Having already been a Diskeeper customer, they turned to V-locity® I/O reduction software during the virtualization of their environment and were pleased to find that they no longer needed to implement any of the other solutions they were looking at to optimize performance.

As an ever-expanding company, Teichert’s technology team is continuously vigilant about maintaining the highest levels of performance for their users. The department spends valuable time and money fine-tuning their IT stack to obtain optimal efficiency. However, performance on their Citrix and SQL servers running critical point of sale, financial and inventory management applications was beginning to suffer due to the growth of data, increased number of users and being virtualized. As long time users of Diskeeper, V-locity seemed liked a natural solution to try out.

Since deploying V-locity, Teichert has seen major improvement across the board and the need for them to spend more money on additional hardware and other 3rd party performance acceleration solutions has been eliminated. "I would recommend V-locity to anyone that doesn’t want to be stuck with unnecessary hardware costs and needs a solution to add an extra layer of enhanced performance,” said Steve Lomax, Teichert’s Senior Windows Systems Administrator.

The greatest benefit of all though, as Steve explains, is that “Many people at Teichert have been positively impacted by the performance gains that V-locity has provided. We’ve seen at least a 50-60% drop in performance-related issues. General frustration is gone, users are more productive and efficient, customers don’t have to wait long periods of time to process orders, and the IT department is freed up to focus on more important initiatives relating to the company’s mission and core values.”
