“Our mission at Cengage Group is to make education attainable for all learners by delivering accessible and affordable digital education resources and solutions.

Pure has empowered us to achieve all of these goals and we’re delighted with our collaboration so far.” – Lloyd Clarke, Virtualisation Lead, Ordnance Survey

At the same time, we have been able to reduce our data centre footprint and energy use with Pure's products and eliminate storage ewaste through their evergreen program.” – Oliver Retz, CIO, Jung Holding

“Maif Vie takes environmental issues seriously and has a strong climate strategy for our life insurance and savings investments; we need to ensure every part of our organisation does its bit to meet these objectives.

Our Pure solution gives us peace of mind for both what it delivers and how little it impacts the environment.” – Florent Geoffroy, Project Manager, Maif Vie
