Whatcom Community College & Stratusphere UX

During a migration to Windows 10, storage and compute resource shortages multiplied exponentially for the college’s 11,000 users.

Selection Criteria

Education institution chose Stratusphere UX for its VMware environment when VMware’s monitoring and management tools fell short.

Optimized Performance

The IT dept.’s goal is for their virtual desktops to run as well or better than physical models which requires proactive optimization.

Proactive Management

IT staff has gone from reacting to being preventative because Stratusphere UX provided detailed date to support informed decisions.

Better Resource Use

Windows 10 requires much more resources than previous OS. Now IT staff can ensure that adequate infrastructure supports the performance levels they need.

Improved Diagnostics

IT staff can now troubleshoot issues quickly because they have the comprehensive data they need to analyze and remediate bottlenecks immediately.

Expanded Footprint

The IT staff’s priority is to continually strengthen its workspace infrastructure so more students and staff have remote access to work and lab resources.


“Stratusphere UX allows us to see desktop activity that we didn’t expect...based on this information we can adjust the resources and configurations in our VDI.”
