Lumen Edge Private Cloud vs. StorMagic SvSAN

CenturyLink Private Cloud is well suited for companies that are smaller and wouldn't have to undergo scaling for a longer time. Apart from that, it does well in almost all categories. It wouldn't actually be useful for bigger companies since the UI is a bit laggy sometimes and usually, it's not advisable for big companies.

The StorMagic SvSAN solution is certainly suitable for two-node architectures where business continuity is required at a reasonable price, with a workload that is not particularly complex. It is not the right solution if you have a virtual environment with a large number of VMs and workloads that require high performance.

• robust framework
• amazing customer support in case you're facing maintenance issues
• collaborative ability is off the charts

• Storage Mirroring
• Low Price
• Easy deploy
• Easy management

• UI can be really improved, since it sometimes lags a lot
• Very few know about the product, so they should advertise a bit more
• There maybe scaling issues since it's a relatively smaller company compared to its competitors

• Technical support could be improved
• Inadequate performance for complex environments
• Architecture needs a witness

Deploying the solution is fairly simple. A system administrator with basic data centre knowledge can configure the StorMagic SvSAN suite independently by following the guides provided. Troubleshooting is greatly simplified thanks to the features available in the management interface. The dashboard allows you to easily manage the technology thanks to a very intuitive and well-designed interface.

It doesn't stack up that well against them, since these are big companies and have huge infrastructures and they provide smooth scaling features. However CenturyLink Private Cloud is a little concise and not many people know about it, so I feel like they should advertise more and try to improve their customer outreach.
