For storage and data transfer StarWind Storage Appliance has been the best solution. The GUI is flexible and easy to learn how it works. The deployment procedure takes a short time for full operation capacity. It shows the graphical display of data across all departments and the performance from all departments. It monitors all storage locations of our data and enhances security to any stored files.
- Securing all workloads stored under its promises.
- Secure file transfer network.
- No room for improvement from my experience.
- The product functionality capability has always been stable.

- There was immediate and positive ROI
- The main deployment objectives have been achieved.
I have not been able to work with same featured product in our organization, however the performance of this platform has been excellent. The support center has been reliable and trustworthy giving us 100% support on daily basis when we deach them. It is affordable to any business enterprise that is ready to implement data storage and transfer programs. The maintenance and scalable cost is reasonable and and the services has been great.
We have three StarWind SANs. They provide storage for around 70 VMs running on our 3-host ESXi cluster. We used FC originally but decided to switch to iSCSI and put in a 2-node Starwind SAN for additional storage, then another when we switched to it for primary storage, then a 3-node SSD SAN when we needed additional performance.
- Very cost-effective. You choose the hardware.
- Very reliable and performant.
- Excellent proactive support. They call us when there is an issue.
- Very flexible. Can mix and match spinning disk and SSD depending on capacity and performance needs.
- Not sure what improvements are needed. The UI could possibly be more intuitive.

- It enabled us to upgrade our storage and switch from FC to iSCSI at a reasonable cost.
- iSCSi is so much less expensive to maintain.
- StarWind is upgradable and you never lose your investment.
We used FC-based EMC and Xiotech previously but they were end-of-support and too expensive to upgrade. We looked at several iSCSI solutions such a Dell, NetApp, and others and the cost performance of StarWind was way better.
