Find out what your peers are saying about Dell Technologies, VMware, Nutanix and others in HCI."This was a great implementation for a small to mid-size business."
"It's quite easy to install."
"It integrates (fully) with VMware and Veeam, my hypervisor, and backup vendors, so for me, all the puzzle pieces simply fit and work smoothly."
"StarWind Virtual SAN is a very easy-to-use solution that can be quickly and easily deployed and configured without intimate and specific knowledge in the virtualization sphere."
"The control panel is nice. It gives you a lot of good feedback as to the status and health of the VSAN."
"The solution offers easy one-click PowerShell scripts that are ready to run."
"StarWind vSAN is a great solution to create a redundant two-node-only Hyper-V cluster, both for domain or workgroup scenarios."
"The best part is the easy way it operates with a very clear GUI without any unnecessary items."
"I find all the features of this solution excellent. The ability to move data to the public cloud is valuable."
"Sync to Central and edge protection mitigate my risk in our branch offices. All services that need to be local to the user exist on local servers. Users run applications and access data locally while the data is constantly being synced to Central, and protected. If an edge device fails, we can recover quickly."
"The only way I can see this product needing improvement is the consultation level of the StarWind sales and engineers."
"It would be good to have a little more access to control certain aspects within the UI."
"Performance when in storage-separate configuration needs to be improved."
"An update caused a syncing issue and it took over a month to resolve it"
"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."
"It took a bit of knowledge and support to put in place but once installed it works fine. Migration (HyperV) from one server to another sometimes takes longer than expected but there is no data loss even if the host crashes."
"They need to improve the speed of the interfaces, thus allowing for better traffic on the network."
"While we had no problems setting the system up, and service technicians from StarWind could assist us very well, they could provide some form of in-depth documentation."
"The pricing and the partnerships with AWS and Azure can be improved."
"Setting up disks for use is a multi-step process that could use some refinement. Setting up a core-to-core replication or DR strategy is also cumbersome."
