Deeper than an export. Faster than manual collection.
The depth of an assessment, the speed of automation, the privacy of running locally. This is the category VIA lives in, and what sets it apart from an export, an agent-based tool, or a manual assessment.
Months of manual collection, replaced by hours of analysis.
The category VIA lives in.
An export gives you raw data. A consulting engagement gives you analysis, often more slowly. VIA combines the depth of analysis, the speed of automation, and the privacy of running locally.
| VIA | Inventory export | Agent-based tools | Manual assessment | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Select a row to compare all four approaches in detail.
A score, broken down.
From all the data VIA collects across your estate, a deterministic analysis isolates the configurations that weigh each VM down and condenses them into a complexity score (VMCS), every point tracing back to the rule that raised it.
- OS past extended support
- Active platform blockers (FT, RDM)
- 7 active communications observed (listening ports and established connections)
- vCPU and RAM heavily over-allocated vs real usage
- Stale snapshots retained, configuration drift
Every finding traces back to the named rule that triggered it. A high score flags complexity to examine, not a malfunction or a VM to retire.
Illustrative example. Bands: SIMPLE 0-10 · MODERATE 11-22 · COMPLEX 23-40 · INTENSIVE 41-100.
VIA doesn't recommend a platform. It surfaces the facts.
By design, we surface every relevant data point, clearly mapped and traceable, then let you, your vendors, and your integrators have the real conversation. We show you the terrain. The climb is yours.
