Case Study: de Volksbank saves 75% troubleshooting time with Runecast

Runecast Analyzer Saves de Volksbank 75% Troubleshooting Time

de Volksbank, an independent Dutch bank holding company, manages a VMware-based environment with more than 2,000 virtual machines across 120+ hosts and 2 vCenters. Its IT team needed a better way to identify preventable issues and monitor security hardening, since VMware vRealize Suite did not make this easy and VMware Skyline was not acceptable because of privacy and security concerns.

The bank deployed Runecast Analyzer and quickly found critical issues and security noncompliance on virtual machines that had looked compliant at deployment. With Runecast, de Volksbank says its IT team saves 75% of the time previously spent on troubleshooting and root cause analysis, prevents at least one host crash a month, keeps 20 to 30 VMs running each month, and uses the tool to prioritize remediation and produce monthly reports.
