30% to 60% Cloud Cost Savings

One of the key benefits of your own infrastructure is its cost advantage at scale. With OpenMetal, your cloud benefits from the fundamental advantage of private infrastructure – you are leasing all the resources of the hardware and not just the virtual resources.

When you provision a VM you can provision the size you need, but during the time that VM is not spiking to consume the top level limit of the VM, those previously wasted resources are dynamically returned to you for your other VMs. You can raise performance, lower staff management time, and lower your cloud costs.

“OpenMetal provided the agility, customization and performance we required to move quickly from just an idea to a fully functioning public cloud offering.”

Founder of Cloud Hosting Company

“It’s really awesome to work with someone who’s aligned culturally to the same type of mission that we are. And it’s really provided us with the ability to innovate and differentiate from the masses that are out there all using the same hyperscalers.”

Tom Fanelli, CEO and Co-Founder of Convesio

“The go-to option for battling the high costs of public clouds.”

“I would definitely recommend OpenMetal. The key points would be an excellent support staff with deep knowledge and troubleshooting steps that are relevant to the issue and don’t begin with the basics. In addition, we have had very minimal downtime issues and our site performance has improved since we have starting using OpenMetal.”

“OpenMetal Cloud provides on-demand private infrastructure, which brings cloud fundamentals like elasticity and usage billing to the cloud deployment itself. It’s awesome to see OpenMetal’s latest product use OpenStack to combine the benefits of public cloud and managed private cloud, powered by open infrastructure.”
