“Bumpy start but came good in the end.....”

Apr 18, 2018
Overall experience was positive, although it started not as well as we had hoped. Commercially and contractually Rackspace are a difficult organisation to agree terms with. They adopt a very hard-lined stance when it comes to what they can agree to. Additionally some of the promises made prior to award did not carry through when it came to contract award, console access being one such example along with speed of implementing you over to the cloud. However as the implementation progressed they became much more supportive and accommodating of what they can do. This was evidenced by a successful implementation of our application space in a very constricted timeframe. I do genuinely believe their statement of being ‘Fanatical Support.

Rackspace Private Cloud Powered by Vmware Likes & Dislikes

Like

Security and SOx compliance

Like

Ultimately a very souped-up IaaS model. The tools were easy for the engineers to adopt and use.

Like

Support is indeed fanatical.

Dislike

HV access or lack of!

Dislike

The cost of the service, when compared to competitors, would definitely be considered premium.

Dislike

I miss white glove support, but the leveraged model does work well.

    My experience with Rackspace was close to flawless and remains a measure for other partners. You hear service terms in the industry but few companies will make the grade like Rackspace in this area. One phone call solved any problem.

    Rackspace has a leveraged service platform that works well when adopted, and their implementation teams are very flexible and responsive. There is some bumpiness when transitioning between these, but the do both work well.

    Overall we are satisfied with the client but there are some rooms for improvement. Over the next couple of year we have seen a slight degradation of the support service especially around response (we need to schedule with several weeks of anticipation to make sure things happen) and after hours activities (we don't have the same level of expertise available after business hours CST).
