A Microsoft MVP is “Jumping on the Invirtus bandwagon”

Recently, Robert McLaws, Microsoft MVP and a dotnet heavy weight, tried and bought VM Optimzer. Later he blogged about the reason why he gains value from the product. To read his blog here.

Another great blog about the goodness of VM Optimizer. Keep ‘em coming.

“Invirtus VM Optimizer Rules!”

Scott Van Vliet weights in on VM Optimizer at his blog.

Says he, “I recently obtained a copy of VM Optimizer, and ran a few of my Virtual PC images through the gauntlet. I’m not sure if the version I tried a few months back was different than the one I used this time, but the results now were fantastic. On a base Windows Server 2003 Enterprise SP1, I reduced the image from 2.56 GB down to 1.52 GB – which eventually compressed to ~650 MB in RAR format! ”

Scott’s results represent the minimum of what you could expect with VM Optimizer. Many customers report 70% and even 80% reductions.

Important note: VM Optimizer has nothing to do with ZIP or RAR compression and does not use compression techniques to achieve reductions.
