Overall Satisfaction with Scale Computing HC3
We migrated to the Scale so my company would have failover capabilities and cost savings over traditional servers. We have moved many of our company's applications to the Scale cluster (Domain, Exchange, etc.).
- Easy to start up and migrate systems.
- Failover capabilities.
- The display of usable hard drive storage shows actual space left not the usable space.
- I would like to have the ability for the snap shots to be stored on a NAS as well as on the cluster.
I have a small 3 node system but I am looking to expand the number of nodes and I know that the expansion will be as simple as pulling in the power and setting an IP on the new nodes and the system will be online. There is nothing else to do.
- I have moved 7 servers onto a 3 node system. The cost of the 3 nodes was a fraction of the cost of 7 servers.
Hyper-V is much more difficult to start up. VMware start-up costs are much higher than Scale.
