Founded in 2007, VKernel quickly established itself as the leading provider of performance and capacity management products for VMware and Microsoft virtualized infrastructures. Recognizing the value of VKernel's powerful, easy-to-use and low-cost products, Quest Software acquired VKernel as a wholly owned subsidiary in November of 2011. True to the Quest's focus on "Simplicity at Work," VKernel products simplify the complex and critical tasks of planning and predicting capacity utilization and performance bottlenecks. Used by over 50,000 system administrators, the products have proven their ability to maximize capacity utilization, reduce virtualization costs and improve application performance.
Led by an experienced and proven management team, VKernel is well-positioned to address the growing demand and opportunity for performance and capacity management solutions for virtualized and cloud environments. The company has operations in the US and in Europe and sells its products directly or through a network of worldwide distribution and reseller partners.
