Find out what your peers are saying about Dell Technologies, VMware, Nutanix and others in HCI."We went from "no way DB applications would have good performance" to "Wow! We can now actually have a DB running and have some VMs running at the same time.""
"The ease of reaching the support team and their promptness for support is great."
"The most important feature is the ability to experience the loss of one node or one storage device, and not lose the entire cluster."
"We have experienced multiple hardware failures at one site and the fault-tolerant volume worked exactly as expected with zero downtime."
"The virtual tapes can be uploaded to the object storage of your choice with object locking/governance which gives you an extra layer of protection."
"This has helped to improve the reliability of service and operation in all departments, without having to stop in case of emergency situations."
"The ability to run a two-node cluster without a dedicated witness has made this an excellent product for small deployments, which is right on target for our needs in regional offices."
"The best part is the easy way it operates with a very clear GUI without any unnecessary items."
"The initial setup is simple. We were able to deliver the hyper-convergence solution in a very good time."

"This product could be improved with the inclusion of new health check procedures."

"It would be helpful if StarWind provided more precise and detailed documentation explaining how to configure the solution in various scenarios, including the advantages and disadvantages of each."
