Overall Satisfaction with StarWind Virtual SAN

We needed highly available servers to run a food production line. Previously their controller ran on a Windows 10 workstation, and was prone to crashing. With StarWind we were able to deploy a simple 2 node HA cluster to easily deploy the controller and provide safety nets in case one server is to go down in the cluster. With Hyper-V, if one server goes down the other can easily restart it on the secondary node.
  • Cost effective software SAN
  • Real time data replication
  • Ease of deployment and management
  • Better documentation about recommended hardware
  • Better deployment instructions and guides
  • Better documentation about update procedures in a 2 node cluster
  • Less downtime for food production line
Support was very helpful and provided quick responses to inquiries.

It is a great solution if budget is of concern, or if you are using a virtualization product other than VMware and cannot utilize their vSAN. If you're deploying a large scale cluster and using VMware, vSAN might be a better option, depending on the budget available.
