Find out what your peers are saying about Dell Technologies, VMware, Nutanix and others in HCI."StarWind Virtual SAN for vSphere is a software-defined storage solution that has reduced administration time for storage. It's pretty straightforward to install and setup it and so far it has been robust and worked as advertised from StarWind."
"The ability for us to manage all of our nodes from the same console makes systems administration very easy."
"This solution enables us to make better cost-effective use of our existing hardware and leverage the current infrastructure at a higher level than we could before."
"It has reduced the amount of switching, network connections, etc., because the converged StarWind Virtual SAN allows us to connect high-speed network interfaces between different boxes instead of having to connect SANs via the network, then connect those two clusters together."
"The product gave us a cost-effective way to deploy a highly available server environment."
"In our case, the cost and high availability are the two most important factors which we were looking for in a solution."
"It is extremely stable."
"The installation of StarWind Virtual SAN was pretty easy, and the configuration was done in no time."
"A lot of features are there, but for us, on the server administration side, creating a clone of the VM is valuable because many times, we have to deploy security patches. For deploying these patches, it helps to have a clone so that if something goes wrong, we can discard that VM and put back the clone VM. That is a very cool feature."
"It has a single pane of glass and you don't have to jump around various toolsets."
"Its most valuable feature is simplicity. It is so easy to use. Upgrades are easy. It is easy in terms of disaster recovery, failover, database provisioning, and reporting. Everything about it is just simple."
"The most valuable features are the RBAC, role-based access control, and the reporting. NCI also provides a single platform, a single pane with a dashboard, to manage the entire infrastructure. We have complete information about overall utilization, performance, and a forecast for our platform in that single pane."
"The interface is very good. Before we used this solution, we had separate storage and switches, but with the hyper convert, it's all in one."
"Nutanix Acropolis AOS makes it easy to use and manage projects and it has a good reputation."
"Some of the most valuable features of Nutanix Acropolis are that it's free from Nutanix and it's very stable."
"The most valuable feature of Nutanix Acropolis AOS is it has centralized management."
"When you run templates on the containers on Virtuozzo they have a lot of back-ups."
"If there are domain controllers inside the cluster, there needs to be some sort of logic allowing them to boot independently so all the rest of the domain clients can gain the authority they need to come online."
"This product would benefit from having automated alerting functionality."
"It is difficult to control all of the hardware components."
"The setup and documentation for the installation with the free version could definitely be improved."
"Improvements in documentation and support resources could enhance the user experience."
"StarWind Virtual SAN architecture is slightly complex and requires the team to carefully identify and study how the solution integrates with VMware vSphere."
"Server-side snapshots are one thing the Linux appliance can't do yet."
"To enable the proactive support capability that is part of our support agreement, I would ask that the terms and conditions be revised and made acceptable to corporate security."
"We had a few problems with the foundation machine that you can use to build your systems out. We've got it working now, but it should be improved."
"I'd like it to be more API-based."
"It would be great if it could emulate some of the features that their competitor VMware has, for example port mirroring or Netflow output at hypervisor level."
"Some clients find the solution's cost to be too high."
"It would be great if they could improve the GUI features."
"In the future, I would like to see multi-tenancy in Nutanix Acropolis AOS."
"Native File-Services are under heavy development and Container Services just came out."
"While the customer support is truly incredible, for Spanish speakers it would be appropriate to have support in their native language to further improve problem-solving conditions."
"Odin Virtuozzo has poor support and needs to improve."
