"Commvault is a user-friendly tool, so most people are happy to adopt this solution."
"The DataCore system has been rock solid since we have been using it - from 2007 on."
"SANsymphony is flexible, with many potential options for implementation. SANsymphony's can be used with VMware, Hyper-V, or even with a hypervisor agnostic approach. It can also be used for strictly physical non-virtualized solutions."
"The most valuable feature of DataCore SANsymphony SDS is its high availability. This solution also exhibits good performance and has high stability."
"DataCore has helped provide flexible, highly available, high-performance storage that otherwise would have been outside our price range."

"I am very happy with this product's ability to adapt, increase, and modify existing infrastructures."
"Our system is designed to be scalable and flexible, so it can grow and adapt to meet the changing needs of our clients."
"The documentation repository is really useful and kept updated."
"NAS backups and BNP protocol backups could be improved. We require some more advanced features. I would also like some features that would enable us to deploy faster, like an orchestrator or something."
"The solution does not support some cloud SaaS applications and has room for improvement with better integration to the storage array."
"SANsymphony is missing some features that vSAN has. For example, vSAN has a special feature called continuous data protection. It provides the ability to go back in time to a given moment. You can see what was on your disk in the past up to two weeks. That's a great feature because ransomware attacks are increasingly common, and that provides you some kind of protection."
"The cloud reporting interface is quite poor compared to other vendors."
"Management could be improved. The management console sometimes reacts very slowly."
"DataCore needs a more efficient and better way to keep track of metrics and counters so that we can do baseline analysis to measure performance."
"The graphical interface is not always very stable."
"We are waiting for container support (on the roadmap), as well as a user-friendly full web-administration capability, and an improved API."
"I would like for it to improve into a more ergonomic management console and a translation into the French language. It should have some process for a shutdown of a VM properly in case of a problem."
"DataCore should integrate its own file server into SANsymphony."
