Quest Software: Major Organizations to be Top drivers of IT spending on virtualization initiatives in 2012

According to a Quest Software survey of more than 200 organizations, improving business agility, delivering cost savings, meeting increasingly demanding user expectations, and managing the growing mobile workforce will be the top drivers of IT spending on virtualization initiatives in 2012. In addition, more than half of the respondents surveyed indicated that at least 25 percent of their 2012 IT budgets will be allocated to virtualization projects across a broad range of critical initiatives, including backup and recovery, virtual desktops, network management, and performance and capacity management, thus highlighting the clear need among the end-user community for comprehensive virtualization management solutions.

Mark Bowker, Sr. Analyst, Enterprise Strategy Group said, "Virtualization management of both servers and desktop is quickly becoming a high IT priority as businesses virtualize more mission critical workloads and embrace desktop virtualization solutions. Quest is in a unique position with ability to deliver management solutions for both server and desktop initiatives and help companies accelerate the value of virtualization and discover improved return on its investments."

Carl Eberling, Chief Technology Officer, Quest Software said, "The results of this survey reinforce what we've been hearing from customers recently, that implementation of virtualization across servers and desktops have moved from proof of concept to production environments. As this has occurred, customers now fully realize the complexity involved with managing the overall environment. Now more than ever before, IT needs a complete management solution set that lets them leverage this dynamic environment for the good of the business, giving them the agility and responsiveness they need to properly address their powerful and ever-demanding users."
