Benchmarking Success

“Dell provided remote access to their servers and allowed us to upload files ahead of time, so that we could hit the ground running and make the most of our time on-site.”

- Bill Raynor, Senior Systems Engineer, Allscripts

Allscripts needed to be able to handle large-scale solution deployments efficiently and with confidence.

Dell Global Infrastructure Consulting Services invited members of Allscripts’ IT team to spend a week at Dell’s engineering lab in Round Rock, Texas, to test the response time of Allscripts’ applications using Dell^TM  PowerEdge^TM  2900 servers with 64-bit dual-core Intel^®  Xeon^®  processors.
