Find out what your peers are saying about Dell Technologies, VMware, Nutanix and others in HCI."I've had to open a few support cases over the years due to administrator errors, and the support received was top-notch."
"The StarWind tech support is extremely helpful, especially during the initial setup."
"The customer support provided by StarWind is excellent."
"Active-active work mode leads to true redundancy of storage and allows us to distribute the load between multiple nodes."
"It's quite easy to manage."
"It enables us to provide more solution options for our clients, with the reassurance that, when implemented, they will be efficient and stable."
"StarWind allows us to move virtual machines from one physical host to another, which greatly reduces the downtime required for maintenance."
"The available GUI is excellent for monitoring and operating the system in an easy and direct way."
"The product is stable. No one complains about the stability, which is fabulous."
"Our customers have seen ROI in terms of the time they save troubleshooting."
"Scalability is easy and simple."
"The most valuable features of this solution are the connectivity, consistency, and that we now have fewer vulnerabilities on the network."
"It saves space for data centers, which is good."
"Overall, the solution is extremely easy, flexible and secure."
"I love the Cisco design, the visual interface to manage and use the platform."
"It is a complete package. For any kind of on-premises hyper-converged solution, we usually have to separate networks, but Cisco HyperFlex HX-Series is a complete solution. It has its own network and storage. The storage part is the most valuable feature."
"The best thing about the solution is that it combines network, storage, and compute functions in one place. Unlike the traditional three-tier setup, you don't need to buy separate devices for each part. This makes it much easier to control and manage everything in one go without switching between different places for different tasks."
"The most valuable feature of Huawei FusionCube Hyper-Converged Infrastructure is the relocating of resources."
"The solution is stable and everything is taken care of through the Huawei support center. They ensure everything is running smoothly. It's been very good."
"The product is very reliable. We haven't had any major issues with the product since we bought it."
"The pricing of the solution is excellent. It's one of the main reasons a customer chooses Huawei. It's much, much better than VMware."

"I think the setup could be streamlined a bit."
"Other vendors such as VMware vSAN have a bigger community of users, so it is easier to find more pre-sale or post-sale information from users."
"A central management console may be nice to see all nodes."
"It would be nice to add the ability to use raw partitions instead of file containers."
"There needs to be more visibility on how long the cloud replication will take as there is no current ETA."
"The system failovers properly on its own without too much worry."
"Updating the software can be a bit tricky."
"The system performs as expected, but we're always looking for performance improvements regarding the best utilization of NVMe disks."
"The solution's price could be affordable."
"They should have more blade options and more configuration flexibility. Also, the price is expensive. It should be cheaper but it is worth the price."
"The initial setup is very complex because there were some issues. It is not clear to how set up this solution."
"The primary improvements should be made in the cluster storage controller VMs so that they don't break the upgrade process."
"Its price could be better."
"The initial setup could be faster, due to the prerequisites."
"The initial setup can be complex."
"The documentation could be substantially better, but the product itself does everything it needs to do."
"t would be helpful if the solution was able to collaborate or integrate with other well-known monitoring tools. Right now, you have to work hard to get it configured. It would be a good selling point for them if they could open up their solution to more integrations."
"The solution currently does not have cloud integration."
"I want the product to be used more efficiently and for our system to connect easily with cloud services like AWS, Oracle, and IBM. We can also improve by adding advanced features like snapshots, replication, and encryption, allowing for more growth. Introducing features such as data duplication, data analytics, and AI-driven insights will improve its deployments."
"Huawei FusionCube Hyper-Converged Infrastructure could improve the security of the solution. However, we are comfortable using it. Additionally, there could be more information provided for the solution and the interface could be more user-friendly."
"Technical support needs improvement. There's a lot of language barriers."
