Case Study: LabSlice achieves scalable, low-cost on-demand virtual labs and training with Amazon Web Services

LabSlice - Customer Case Study

LabSlice is a startup that helps companies streamline sales demos and on‑demand training by creating cloud‑hosted evaluations and lab environments that can be shared easily between teams and customers. With offices in Australia and Toronto, the company needed a way to serve sales and training users with self‑service, policy‑controlled virtual machines that provide immediate access, collect feedback on product trials, and avoid the overhead of maintaining physical labs.

LabSlice built its service on Amazon EC2 so customers can load their keys and spin up sharable, lease‑controlled lab environments by email, enabling product evaluations and certification training without in‑house infrastructure. The result: clients such as a Toronto bank and a Big Four consultancy avoid capital and maintenance costs (projected savings of more than $10,000), reclaim physical space, and let LabSlice developers focus on software while benefiting from AWS’s ongoing platform innovations.
