The main purpose of the solution was to maintain certain private cloud capabilities. However, we only used it to run internal processes due to certain circumstances. We are not using cloud capabilities. We use the solution to scale our hardware using servers.

HCI is often pitched against VMware licenses, which are expensive. However, Sangfor HCI is more cost-effective and offers more features than VMware. This makes it a strong competitor in the Pakistani market.

From a business perspective, we use Sangfor HCI due to its competitive pricing compared to other competitors such as Nutanix. We have reviewed Nutanix as well and found that Sangfor HCI offers similar ease of use. So, in terms of user interface (UI), the experience is more or less the same.

We use Sangfor HCI for the Sangfor Cloud platform. We are soon going to host our own cloud platform service by using Sangfor HCI. We've already got a conditional queue from one of the customers, and we're consistently in talk with Sangfor regarding this deal.

We are working with the trial license of the Sangfor platform. For the first three months, we're going to use it on a trial basis, and after the customer confirms the purchase order, we'll be permanently going for the Sangfor Cloud solution.

We were look for less expensive virtualization solution that can accommodate our VM workload and provide virtualized storage as well.

Our old environment consisted to multiple SAN storage devices. Maintenance such equipment is very costly and requires a separate in network infrastructure.

We wanted to utilize storage capacity available in our hypervisor nodes to provide clustered storage service using storage virtualization technologies similar to Microsoft S2D and VMWare vSAN, but at a low cost.
