Vizioncore Offers vConverter SC As Freeware

Vizioncore Inc., the market leader in virtualization data protection and management solutions, today announced that vConverter SC (Server Consolidation) will now be available for free. Customers may use the tool to accelerate towards a virtualized environment, making the most of maintenance windows and reducing downtime on current physical machines.

vConverter SC offers an intuitive GUI to enable rapid simultaneous conversions of single or multiple servers without disruption to the source system. By combining cutting-edge disk and networking technology with extensive automation of pre- and post-conversion tasks, it boasts the ability to successfully migrate more servers per conversion window, saving valuable maintenance time. Furthermore the product is compatible with hypervisors from leading vendors such as VMware, Microsoft and Citrix, making it the perfect fit for almost every environment.

The move continues the precedent set at VMworld Europe earlier this year with the launch of the Virtualization EcoShell Initiative (VESI), another free offering from Vizioncore to the virtualization community. In providing these tools and services, the company is cementing its intention of offering a selection of the Vizioncore product portfolio for free, thereby widening adoption of virtualization across the market.

“We’re excited by the prospect of taking Vizioncore to a wider audience and by lowering the barriers to adoption,” said Devang Kothari, Product Manager for vConverter, Vizioncore. “We hope that end users looking to take the first steps into managing their virtualized estates will benefit from seeing how Vizioncore products help overcome their pain points and then be encouraged to deploy our comprehensive suite of virtualization management products.”

vConverter SC can be downloaded for free here. At VMworld 2009, visitors are invited see vConverter SC in action alongside other Vizioncore offerings at booth #1402.
