For us the biggest problem was still downtime. The Windows machines still required frequent patching and restarts, while the Linux machines we didn't have to worry about much at all.

The machines got us into this problem. They are going to have to get us out of it.

We immediately saw better uptime. We saw better provisioning of hardware. This system makes it easier to keep servers running, as we can move one virtual machine to the other if we need patching done.

Basically, it allows us to do a snapshot of all the virtual machines running on a host. Then you can use something like Virtual Server with Data Protection Manager to create good backup and recovery. You can recover the entire host and all the virtual machines running in a very orchestrated fashion.

Liquid Machines is making it possible for us to work without fear of compromising the trust placed in us by senior executives and investors. Information related to officer-level executive transitions is a highly sensitive matter, and Liquid Machines Document Control lets us set policies that define how employees can use sensitive information and set rights that prevent outsiders from accessing documents even if they are sent via email or delivered on a USB storage device.

I think there is a complicated side effect to overcoming evil in that we are forever changed by it. I think after we ingest some of the cruelty of the world, it takes years off of our lives, but it also gives us wisdom and a little grace, hopefully a sense of compassion.
