Overall Satisfaction with StarWind Virtual SAN

I am currently running servers with hosted applications for my business, and I had a problem having them online all the time because of server maintenance and updates that's why I started using a StarWind Virtual SAN to avoid buying a Hardware SAN and use my existing servers only. The software improved my productivity by allowing me to have a virtualisation high availability and fault tolerance. I am planning to invest in NVME disks which the software provides perfect integration with to speed up the systems and to get cache capabilities.
  • Ease of management: The management was very easy, and I was able to find all that I needed in the software dashboard
  • ISCSI: The connection using software made it easy to me to connect my servers without an extra investment in hardware SAN
  • For now I see all application features fits my requirements
  • Cost saving
  • Applications high availability
Using the support tools available allowed me to run and manage the software without any need to contact support.
