How We're Different

Skytap is a cloud service that combines the simplicity of 'Software-as-a-Service' with the power of virtual infrastructure. We've designed our solutions to provide immediate value to our customers while lowering their IT costs. Here's why Skytap different from anything you've seen before:

It's Truly Virtual

Virtualization promises huge benefits for IT organizations - resource sharing, increased control and flexibility, and an opportunity for greatly reduced costs. Skytap Virtual Lab takes the concept of virtualization even further by providing a complete virtual lab automation solution available as a cloud-based service - a truly virtual lab accessible from any location using just a browser.

It's On-Demand

Realizing the full benefits of a virtualized lab typically involves investing in costly new hardware, implementing virtual lab management software, and staffing up for support and administration. Because Skytap Virtual Lab is an on-demand service, you can be up and running within minutes of signing up - there's no upfront capital costs, zero administration and you can scale up and down lab infrastructure as you need it.

It's Simple

We've designed Skytap Virtual Lab to be as simple and intuitive as possible. Most cloud computing providers only give you raw compute, storage and networking infrastructure, so you'll still need a skilled technical team to build and configure an environment. Skytap Virtual Lab is different because it provides a total solution for virtual lab environment, including a self-service application, so that you can be productive as soon as you log on.
