Maxta [EOL] Previous Solutions

LC
Senior Manager IT Infrastructure at Trusource Labs

Actually I have been using Maxta and was considering moving on to something else. It has worked well for the whole time that I have had it. At one point they went out of business and they were bought by another company after they closed down. It is a nice company, but now their support has gone way downhill.  

Since we do not need super-fast data speeds and we do not have a ton of IOPS, I was looking for another software-only solution. What I ended up doing was taking a special offer with vSAN to buy two nodes and get one free. I bought a couple of those kits. It was still on Maxta, so I have support for Maxta now. I am using that to get us off of Maxta in the future and get our network up on vSAN.  

On a scale of one to ten where one is the worst and ten is the best, I would rate Maxta as a seven currently because of the issues with support.
