189 Condusiv Technologies Testimonials

“We are really pleased with the Diskeeper product. We have virtually eliminated HelpDesk requests referencing slow performance due to fragmented data. We are using HP DL servers running VMware attached to either local disk arrays or an HP SAN. We have had no issues with the software and reduced scheduled server downtime for defragmentation. We have analyzed defragmentation on a regular basis and found the systems are always optimized.”

"V-locity increased the performance on my virtual desktops. On average, latency was reduced from 4.81ms to 1.69ms largely due to the new IntelliMemory Caching technology in V-locity. V-locity also aids in managing the virtual disk with IntelliWrite which prevents the OS from breaking apart files, writing them in a performance penalized manner. It also helps recover unused space which allows for better density on my network storage."

“We are running Undelete with VMware ESX and it is working wonderfully. We are very satisfied with the software.”

"I use the Automatic defrag so use of Diskeeper is very easy. We are seeing very good results and the files are more efficiently organized on the disks than before. We use Diskeeper in a data warehouse environment. It means that every night we delete a lot of datasets and we re-created a lot of new datasets. The disks were always very fragmented. With the Windows defrag tool it was not possible to defragment the disks in a fast way. The programs that use this data warehouse require fast disk access. That's why a well-organized disk is important for us. With Diskeeper we can reorganize the disk quickly and keep it well organized.”

“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.”

"With V-locity, we've seen an 80-90% improvement in response time for SQL, email, CRM, and other critical apps. Sluggishness and performance issues just don't exist."

“File fragmentation had a significant impact on the backup performance of all servers previously identified. Defragging drives on Server1 (both target and source drives) with Diskeeper helped boost throughput by 67%, the average throughput increased from 7MB/s to 11.7MB/s for 5 concurrent drive backups. The longest runtime for any backup job in that group was 10 hours. Defragging the target drives on Server2 increased throughput by 73%, the average throughput increased from 5.9MB/s to 10.2MB/s for 6 concurrent drive backups. The longest runtime for any backup job in that group was = 11.5hrs. Consequently, all tape protection operations ran properly and according to schedules with no data sets missed.”

“We’ve been running Diskeeper on our production SQL server to keep the physical fragmentation of files to a minimum after we had a problem with severe fragmentation on some of our drives. It’s done a solid job of keeping the system at relatively low fragmentation level with little cost in terms of overhead on the machine."

"The improvement in performance from installing V-locity, was measured by individual experience, conjecture from the IT people using this product, versus users not using this product in our testing environment. V-locity showed increase in performance as dramatic as cutting latency by 50% (30.0 ms to 15.0ms)."

“As you transfer data to a hard drive it cannot take into account that the recorded data will change or the files may become larger. The hard drive will write and store data in pre-determined quantities and fills space based on the table that keeps track of where and how much data exists. The fragments result because files change, become larger, and the space it resides in remains the same due to data stored at its boundaries. The hard drive maintains a record of how the data is stored so if a file had to be extended and could not be appended, the additional data would be stored in a free space area."

“Diskeeper was recommended by our software vendor for his voice recording product. I am responsible for the deployment of Diskeeper in our Voice Logger project for our call centers starting this month. So far the installations of the product were limited to a lab environment. Diskeeper is a very efficient tool to defrag the voice recordings. I have had a pilot project running in the field and again, Diskeeper is working very well. It is easy to set up. The real time defrag has a very light footprint and does not impact the server performance.”

“I really enjoy the Benefit Analyzer benchmark to see how well the system is now running. The Benefits Analyzer reports are great at giving me the most up-to-date information all in one location. This makes it very convenient."

"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."

"Diskeeper is always an absolutely essential investment. For the peace of mind I get, not to mention the awesome added bonus of one thing permanently removed from my ‘worry list’, the cost to value ratio is phenomenal. When it comes to disk fragmentation and all of the associated problems in server performance, Diskeeper is the ONLY solution. Without the slightest exaggeration, I don't even think about the fragmentation state of any disk on any system once Diskeeper is installed. The "Set It and Forget It" functionality is exactly what's promised. This product works as it always does....flawlessly. Diskeeper is definitely a vital tool.”

"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.”
