“We use V-locity on our web servers, accessed by many users through our website and by systems in each of our libraries. We have seen over 100% performance gains. This means I don’t have to replace servers, and our patrons gain a huge boost in response time.”

“Diskeeper optimization has returned over $100,000 per annum in measurable productivity gains to our business by the time savings and increased systems reliability, which made our investment in this technology viable, when you take into consideration that we only pay a small fraction of that per year, you get the kind of math we can all agree upon.”

“Our company is better off from using Diskeeper as our servers, computers and gateways see a noticeable difference in file access on the defragged drives. The biggest gains are on systems that do a lot of read/writes and even more if the files are temporary. We have been using Diskeeper for a number of years and just recently moved to a new SQL Server. Boot times are better and virus scans do run faster. The biggest improvement has been the interval between PC ‘cleanings’, when Information Systems go out and clean up the workstations by re-imaging. I simply pay attention to how the systems work before and after defragmentation.”

“I run Diskeeper on our EMC SAN clustered servers. We started at 40% fragmentation on our E drive and 43% fragmentation on our F drive. In a few hours we are now at 0% for both. We have had such performance issues lately and I’m sure we will notice the difference. I am absolutely amazed at how easy Diskeeper was to install and configure.”

“Diskeeper helps with storage performance which means I/O throughput (read\write\seek speeds) which translates to faster application response times. We run a nightly batch of jobs for our applications and the jobs complete between 5 and 20 minutes faster than if Diskeeper is not in use on that server.”

“We use Diskeeper in various ways. We've deployed it on our Windows File Servers, also on our nightly backup server which runs on Windows 2003 Standard x64, and with Backup Exec. One important example of how Diskeeper has made our backup system work more effectively is in its use of defragmenting our backup-to-disk procedures. Each night we backup quite a number of servers onto a NAS before archiving to tape. We've scheduled Diskeeper to run around the times it’s actually backing up, and in doing so it has decreased the amount of time necessary to run our backup jobs significantly."

“The Diskeeper EnterpriseServer performs very well on our servers, keeping the file systems in great shape. All of our Diskeeper servers use Pillar Data Systems SAN disk except for one. Most of our Windows servers run as virtual machines under VMware ESX. On our production servers Diskeeper does a great job. For example, Diskeeper running full time on our main email server which is Domino Lotus Notes keeps the file systems defragmented and running optimally.”

"As we learned through this exercise with Condusiv’s V-locity® I/O reduction software, we were getting hit really hard by thousands of excessively small, tiny writes and reads that dampened performance significantly."

“I am glad to give references for Diskeeper. We have been using Diskeeper Server for years. I used to receive frequent alerts on server drive fragmentation. After installing your Diskeeper, I have yet to see an alert and have noticed no impact on overall system performance. We are running a few Oracle 9i databases at our site. We have 5 Cybernetics DAS RAID 5 arrays, 1 Lefthand Network iSCSI SAN, a Dell EMC / AX100i iSCSI SAN, and an EMC CX-310 fibrechannel SAN at our site. We also have a Dot Hill fibrechannel SAN for email archiving. We have multiple Lotus Notes production and failover servers and use VMware ESX on 4 host servers running this software."

“Prior to installing Diskeeper we had problems to get and keep the disks defragmented, especially the larger volumes. The performance of those volumes was poor. Diskeeper with IntelliWrite took care of those problems thus greatly improving the disk performance especially the volumes on our HP EVA SAN 4000.”

“We use the Undelete on all of our file servers; it’s great for Windows and virtual systems. Undelete saves us countless hours on having to restore from tape. We are very happy as we use it almost weekly. The ability to save more than one version of a Word doc, or to prevent digging through backup logs for the right version of a file, definitely pays for itself.”

“We have used Diskeeper on our own laptops and server since starting the company. I used to rely on the Windows built-in defrag tool or a freeware option for clients and PC’s but realized that Diskeeper offers a much better solution. We have fewer alerts on the servers with Diskeeper installed. We consistently see big improvement in backup times after we clean up file servers with Diskeeper. Our company’s policy is to include Diskeeper in our managed service offering on servers and strongly recommend it, especially for high priority workstations. Best of all, we enable IntelliWrite for a true “Set It and Forget It” solution.”

“With V-locity, we were able to double performance on our heaviest workloads while reducing ongoing hardware costs.”

"V-locity has consistently increased the performance of our VMs. These noted performance gains are even more readily apparent to our administrators through usage of the new Benefit Analysis functionality. This feature not only allows us to more easily generate reports that visually show the benefits of the product but it also provides us with great documentation for demonstrating the benefit of V-locity to our managerial staff. For example, one of our Remote Desktop Session host servers experienced a 190% improvement in normalized I/Os per second while latency was reduced by 190% as well. We particularly like the IntelliWrite technology.”

“Due to our use of Diskeeper on our Dell AMD Opteron PCs, we have extended life of the units by 2- 3 years. You don’t have to refresh the systems as often. They can be bumped down to divisions that don’t require the speed and performance that development or CAD system and GIS users require. A PC costs $685 to $950 and our normal refresh is every 4 years originally. Now it is every 5 years before PC refresh. A quarter of our users’ systems (with Diskeeper installed) are 6 – 7 years old and they still come up fast with the performance almost as good as the new, considering the older hardware and memory that the unit has installed."
