We performed a comparison between Commvault Distributed Storage [EOL] and StorPool based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about StarWind, Nutanix, Red Hat and others in Software Defined Storage (SDS)."Some customers have chosen this solution for its features, benefits, and user-friendly interface."
"Commvault is a user-friendly tool, so most people are happy to adopt this solution."
"Creating snapshots within seconds for big disks has helped our different migration projects since it allows us to perform them in a short period of time."
"With StorPool we were able to build live failover on top of our LXC infrastructure. This allows us both to live-migrate containers between compute nodes without any downtime and, in case of an entire node suffering any type of failure, we can bring all containers back online within a minute on a spare compute node."
"The two 10GE networks provide redundancy and increased performance as they serve as two separate networks doubling the throughput and doing multipathing and load balancing. We now have a high performance shared storage system which enables us to run on private cloud. Our previous system used bare-metal hardware, which provided high performance but inflexible management. Now we have best of both worlds, SSD-class performance with flexibility of a private cloud system."
"The team behind it was very engaged and had the skills and ability to support a service provider."
"The speed of the storage solution also allows us to provide service to applications that are very I/O intensive."
"Performance, redundancy, scalability and cost-effectiveness. StorPool delivers superbly in all of these areas."
"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."
"I have personally met with multiple Storpool engineers and spoke about different options and features. There are too many features that we don't know or use yet. My recommendation would be to promote the new features and give users different examples of how they can be used and how we can benefit from them."
"he only place we feel they could improve is the time it takes to bring new features to production."
"Monitoring and statistics UI is a bit clumsy."
"At times we need to check the disks and do some minor operations. A friendlier user interface would be useful in such cases."
"It would be good if, with next releases, StorPool provide a better GUI for monitoring and statistics. This would make our experience even better and complete."
"Live and historical performance statistics would be useful, though my understanding is that this is on the way in a future release."
