What enterprises running Tessell actually say

Operational Overhead Reduced

"My organization has been leveraging Tessell Managed Services for Oracle on Azure for the past one year. My overall experience is highly satisfactory. This service significantly reduced operational overhead. Previously, we were using database deployed on VM was challenging - scaling, patching, backups and monitoring the system health was very complex and time consuming. Tessell managed services have addressed all these challenges providing reliable, scalable and well monitored system."
