“Diskeeper makes our work easier plus the background Automatic defrag and scheduled defrags are the 'Bomb'. Our systems were slow prior to installing Diskeeper. Very Important: I use Diskeeper routinely to schedule off-hour CheckDisk maintenance & reboots. This feature alone makes Diskeeper a highly valuable Network/Server tool with our Left Hand SAN. For example, monthly Microsoft updates require reboots after installations so I do this using Diskeeper Boot Time Defrag. This is for all our school & admin servers.”

"We include Diskeeper in our standard build because we have seen increased stability and performance on the client machines and servers. Diskeeper is part of our maintenance plan for all our machines in order to reduce the amount of front-line support time required on a day-to-day basis."

“One of the things I learned years ago in a database tuning class was the two easiest things to do to improve performance and efficiency are reorganization/runstats and keeping the disks defragmented. The reasoning is that when the database gets data off of the disk, it doesn't just grab one or two records, it reads in a block of data. If that block of data is fragmented, then it takes more reads to get the entire data block into the database buffers (memory). I equate that with less energy used for repositioning the drive heads for searching and finding all of the data fragments to complete the data block.”

“Diskeeper is definitely a vital tool that increases and improves performance, especially in database environments. We utilize Diskeeper on all of our servers. It works well, does the job and we are pleased with the results. I’m no longer worried about file fragmentation and I know that my servers operate at peak performance. We use EMC Clarion SAN and Diskeeper defragments 200 GB of data from the SAN very efficiently, without impacting the server performance."

“V-locity works well for servers and it is great to have specifically tailored software for VMware machines, thus has minimal impact, which is important for any VM infrastructure. In addition, the option of different install methods makes it easy to roll out in any environment. I really like the Host Agent for single location details. Rather than checking each machine, the ability to get an overview of your servers in one location is very convenient."

"V-locity has helped my environment. Our system was spiking the CPU very high and causing network issues and we had to kill the process to fix the issue. After installed Velocity the problem did not occur again. I see the V-Awareness function as the biggest benefit, and also the improved performance from running this new version. I like the fact that we no longer have to install anything on the ESX host, and the V-locity host user interface which monitors the environment."

"We have found many benefits from using Diskeeper with our Compellent SAN. For a year we were having trouble reclaiming the fragmented files on our servers attached to the Storage Area Network. With Diskeeper we are better equipped to utilize and reclaim unused disk storage on our servers attached to the Compellent SAN. After loading the software on the necessary servers, Diskeeper does all of the work for us. It has reduced the amount of time required by our staff to manage fragmented space on the SAN. Diskeeper also allows us to better achieve ROI for the hardware.”

“Story to tell? Oh yes. Our entire commissions database was saved by the Undelete program. Very happy about that. We would have lost a week of commissions (over 2000 records easily). We were very grateful that we had your product.”

“Diskeeper has improved the performance quite a bit on the SQL servers. One runs a Content Management package that serves up our Customer Utility Billing statements and allows customers to access their bills online. We were having performance problems because there are about 500 GB of documents that it manages and indexes. New files are added and old files are deleted from it each day. The disk was highly fragmented. Installing and running Diskeeper easily improved the overall performance by 25%. Another server runs our ESRI GIS database (large maps with data attached to spatial points in a Geodatabase). The database on this server is constantly growing and changing. We've frequently run the SQL based file indexing function to improve performance. We saw the drives on it also were highly fragmented. Installing and running Diskeeper improved the performance by 10% - enough to be noticeable when pulling up a map."

“I accidentally deleted an important VMware file that was my development partition for one of my projects, thinking I had a backup. When I realized that I did not, I was able to download Undelete, install it, and recover the file that was lost as a result of pressing Shift+Delete on my keyboard. Undelete saved my bacon on that one.”

“I’m running the new Diskeeper with Instant Defrag on a Windows 7 server with domain controller, and on Windows 2008 using EqualLogic SAN. These systems run quite a bit faster – especially on VMware. I was quite surprised at that."

“The Diskeeper upgrades went very smoothly. We have the Administrator so rolling out the upgrades is easy from the Diskeeper standpoint. We haven’t had any issues at all with these deployments on more than 300 servers we upgraded. IntelliWrite technology and Instant Defrag do an excellent job of keeping fragmentation from accumulating. Anecdotally, I’ve noticed fewer servers showing up in the Dashboard with moderate or critical fragmentation. And even when they do show up, the fragmentation is milder than previously. The Instant Defrag makes a noticeable difference."

“Fragmentation is usually a big culprit in stealing system performance. We put it on all staff portables. Diskeeper is an integral part to maintaining individual computer's health. I basically “Set It and Forget It”. We are using NetApp StoreVaults for our SAN. We have MS SQL currently running in the district and GroupWise is our messaging system. I am running Diskeeper on those virtual machines with Windows Server 2003/2008. Before we deployed Diskeeper, we had severe fragmentation that caused systems to run slow. Also, just running defrag was problematic because the ‘best way to run it’ was to be logged in as administrator or with administrator equivalent rights. That is not a possibility in a school district."

“I wouldn't have a client machine or a Windows based server without Diskeeper on it. Period! I manage the departmental & enterprise COTS apps. Since first installing Diskeeper I have seen blinding speed and far less hang-ups with Windows - a tremendous improvement. The Trialware expired and within three days my PC was grinding to a halt and hanging on a regular basis; the Windows defrag product made little improvement and took a long time to run. After Diskeeper was registered properly it found over 13,000 fragments and brought my dragging PC back to full brilliancy!"

“The Undelete software that we use on all our Regional Servers is undoubtedly worth every penny. It has saved our Techs numerous hours in restoring files inadvertently deleted as opposed to having to restore from backup tape.”
