Higher education:


Bryant University on energy management


“As we look into the future and aim to extend energy efficiency beyond the data center walls and into our campus at-large, Schneider Electric rose to the top of the list of partners to help us meet our strategic goals, based on their expertise in energy efficiency, previous work with us in the data center, and their long history in intelligent facilities and building management. We are using their solutions not only to help with managing energy, but also to enable more effective campus planning for future initiatives.” – Richard Siedzik, director of computer and telecommunications services, Bryant University, Rhode Island


Technology company: Microsoft Technology Center on speed of deployment


“The agility of the Schneider Electric data center allows a quick adaptation to the ever-changing IT requirements. It can also adapt easily to dynamic business needs and strategies. This capability is the key in an IT environment that is transitioning to cloud computing right now.” – Frédéric Aatz, director


Microsoft Technology Center, Paris, France


Healthcare:


Montgomery County Hospital District on manageability


“Because we continue to grow in terms of projects, programs, and people, meeting the future needs of our organization is challenging. It can be difficult to predict what


our technological needs will be because our environment is continually changing. We have built our new data center to be able to double in capacity, but it is hard to know whether our ever-growing technology needs will actually translate into more square feet. As servers virtualize and blade solutions continue, twice as much computing power doesn’t mean twice as much space.”


“The investment in solid infrastructure, especially of this nature, always pays off. We have saved IT hours by being able to hard boot servers remotely via their power cords versus paying for someone to go on-site.” – Matt Folsom, project coordinator,


Montgomery County Hospital District, Conroe, Texas


Public school district: Cuba City School District on service and support


“The support I received was outstanding. The three-phase support staff was super friendly. If they didn’t know an answer, they found someone who did – and didn’t make me feel stupid for not already knowing the answer. That’s a refreshing change in the IT industry. Our services experience was 10 out of 10. Everything was checked and verified by an on-site engineer before we powered on. It was a relief to know that everything was operating within specifications and that there would be no “surprises” when we connected our equipment.” – Dick Davies, network administrator, Cuba City School District, Wisconsin
