Find out what your peers are saying about Dell Technologies, Nutanix, VMware and others in HCI."The customer support provided by StarWind is excellent."
"One of the standout features of StarWind.com is its remarkable ability to seamlessly integrate with Dell systems. This integration provides users with an unmatched level of convenience and compatibility, allowing for streamlined operations within a Dell environment. This compatibility factor alone can save significant time and effort for IT professionals, ensuring a smooth integration process and optimized performance."
"Besides being 80% cheaper than the other alternatives, the simplicity makes reconfiguration and support much easier."
"We are able to execute maintenance on one server while the other is still running."
"StarWind saved us about 80% of our storage costs over our old solution."
"The solution offers easy one-click PowerShell scripts that are ready to run."
"The StarWind VSAN is always up and allows us to move VMS to other nodes for maintenance, without interruption to service."
"I like the asynchronous replication and failover features. They are what I'm primarily using it for. The asynchronous replication is helpful because our servers are backed up continuously throughout the day. If anything goes wrong we just fail over immediately. That is a very nice feature to have."
"The most valuable feature of Acronis Cyber Infrastructure is the multi-tenancy model, we can create customers and services for them."
"The most valuable feature is the backup capability."
"The most valuable features are the full image backup, and the file or document sharing, allowing documents to be easily accessed from anywhere."
"You can be sure that whatever you patch is already compatible with the current firmware and the current version of the Acropolis that you're using."
"The product is easy to manage."
"Karbon is a must-have as it drastically simplifies the deployment of Kubernetes."
"It is very easy to clone systems using the solution."
"In the world of IT operations, there is a lot of noise. Traditionally, systems would generate a great deal of alerts, events, and notifications, often leading to the operator either a) not seeing critical alerts since they are lost in the noise or b) disregarding the alerts/events."
"It has seamless expandability."
"The ease of deployment is very good."
"This is a very flexible solution that you are able to run however you want."
"The console is something that I feel could be improved. There is nothing technically wrong with it, but it can be jazzed up and/or made to be a little more intuitive."
"The system failovers properly on its own without too much worry."
"I would like to see options for automated notifications of any changes, including, for example, synchronization issues."
"Ongoing improvements in read and write performance would help meet increasingly demanding workloads."
"It would help us if the vendor continues to release software updates for earlier versions of the Windows operating systems."
"Other vendors such as VMware vSAN have a bigger community of users, so it is easier to find more pre-sale or post-sale information from users."
"Updates seem to be non-existent."
"I would like to see more monitoring and alert tools."
"If they could make improvements with the virtual environment then it would be better."
"Acronis Cyber Infrastructure is too populated. They have many features, but some features are still missing, it is not complete. They need to improve many features, such as email security and disaster recovery."
"I would like to see real-time backup supported in the next release of this solution."
"Storage utilization and optimization should be better."
"The file services that they also provide need some more features, like on the Windows file server."
"In the licensing, it needs to be clear about features because it is not clear whether Flow is integrated or not."
"The patch updates of Nutanix Acropolis could be improved. I'm work on the corporate side, but I get feedback from our IT team that patch updates and other updates are taking a significantly longer time. This definitely needs to be resolved. We are in discussion with Nutanix regarding certain configuration issues we are having, so maybe something can be changed to ease these patch updates."
"I would like to see official compatibility with Red Hat in the future."
"In Thailand, there really isn't a cloud version of Nutanx available to us."
"They could improve the graphical user interface."
"Our client had some old Citrix Xen servers for which there is no direct migration. Nutanix has a move utility for Microsoft Hyper-V clusters or VMware clusters. You can easily migrate them using the move utility, but the Xen clusters cannot be migrated in a simple way. That is the only thing that is lacking, but nowadays, no one uses the Citrix Xen server for their clusters. Everything else is already there. Nutanix keeps on upgrading its hardware's or hypervisor's capability to be able to support new technologies."
