I agree completely that virtualization needs to be high on the list of any client considering a new server. We recently won a project from a prospect because of what virtualization has to offer. The client had plans to implement three new servers this year. One file server, one database server and one email server. All of the providers (except for DedicatedIT) quoted multiple servers. We came in with a quote for one server that was virtualized. The savings allowed us to implement our <a href="http://www.dedicatedit.com/it-support-bundle/backup/?SOURCE=MSP" rel="nofollow">amazingly awesome backup and disaster recovery system</a> for them day one. Finally, when they plan to do the 3rd migration (their email server) in Q3, they can choose to implement it on the existing server, or purchase another virtual server that allows for additional redundancy in their environment. The savings alone allowed us to win the project, their support contract and provide them a backup system that meets the requirements of their auditors.
