Sangfor has many solutions, and you can easily manage their machine servers with just one management.
They're always striving for greatness, and they continuously update their products. For example, they have now built endpoint security within the firewall. They are continuously improving not only the security but also all other products.

It does not have object storage. vSAN also does not have object storage, but Nutanix has object storage, and it is natively integrated into its HCI.

As far as I know, no hyper-convergence solution includes security, so you have to buy security from another brand. For example, you buy SimpliVity or Nutanix.

It would be good if there is a security solution inside this solution so that it is not only for the virtualization of CPU, RAM, disk, and network but also for security.
