INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. 26, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Scale Computing, a market leader in hyperconverged solutions, today announced it has been honored at The Channel Company’s Midsize Enterprise Summit (MES) 2017 Fall Conference with XCellence Awards for “Best Midmarket Solution: Hardware,” “Best Boardroom” and “Best-of-Show.” With three award wins, Scale bested other hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) vendors at the show, including Nutanix and HPE SimpliVity.

This sold-out event attracted more than 200 CIOs and senior IT executives who voted for the most distinguished midmarket products, services and presentations. With this prestigious award, Scale Computing continues to demonstrate its commitment to provide innovative products and solutions that boost productivity and accelerate ROI for the midmarket.

Scale Computing’s HC3 virtualization platform is a complete ‘datacenter in a box’ with server, storage and virtualization integrated in a single appliance to deliver simplicity, availability and scalability at a fraction of the cost. Scale Computing distinguished itself from peers with the simplicity of its HC3 systems, which install in minutes, requiring no virtualization software to license and no external storage to buy.

“The MES XCellence Awards showcase tech suppliers whose innovation and expertise provide IT executives with the solutions they need to succeed in the midmarket,” said Lisa MacKenzie, senior vice president, The Channel Company. “The winners of these awards are the midmarket IT industry’s vote of confidence in the winners’ products, solutions and services. We congratulate the winning companies for their exceptional commitment to the midmarket and look forward to their continued success.”

“As former IT pros who understand the inherent frustrations in the enterprise tech world, Scale Computing has always operated with the mission to make life easier for IT in an underserved segment of the market,” said Jeff Ready, CEO of Scale Computing. “Receiving these three prestigious awards demonstrates our commitment to help businesses achieve their goals, at a fraction of the price of our competitors.”

The Channel Company hosted the Midsize Enterprise Summit Fall 2017 Conference at the JW Marriott Hill Country in San Antonio, Sept. 17-19. More than 200 midmarket CIOs and senior-level IT decision-makers gathered at this sold-out event to meet with top technology vendors, solution providers and Gartner industry analysts to forge new contacts and discuss technology’s role in the midmarket landscape.
