“The VMware platform and a DataCore SAN has really given us the needed flexibility to more rapidly deploy systems - especially in the Citrix farm.In addition, the combination has improved our VMotion capability – allowing us to perform maintenance in the middle of the day, if we have to.”
"Since using DataCore, our storage-related spending has been reduced by over 50%, and as a state funded organisation that is important, but not as important as providing a first rate user experience which we now have achieved, with a few tweaks along the way."
"Lakota School District considered the pros and cons of other SAN configurations from EMC, HP and LeftHand Networks,"
“The flexibility, performance and management scalability of the DataCore solution make it an effective shared storage solution for our large number of virtual machines running under Microsoft Hyper-V.”
“We selected Xiotech’s storage systems with DataCore software, and I can easily say it is one of the best IT purchases I have ever made.”
“I see a lot of value in what server virtualization has to offer. However, if you are shortsighted in trying to implement server virtualization without also looking to virtualize your SAN, you have only addressed half your potential problems. It is just a natural progression that server virtualization and SAN virtualization are implemented simultaneously to seamlessly virtualize the entire environment.”
"Having looked at several vendors prior to DataCore, nothing we looked at apart from DataCore was mature enough in terms of features and capabilities. With DataCore, we not only found all the fault-tolerance needs that we wanted, but DataCore can work with anyone else's storage equipment. DataCore's products are feature-rich and have everything that we needed."
"More importantly, since it has been deployed in production, our AIX applications have run faster and that's the true test of performance."
“High availability was a big driver but doing so costeffectively was paramount. DataCore enabled us to deliver a solution offering greater reliability, far more capabilities and greater future potential, all while allowing Loeb to stay on budget.”
"We are happy with our DataCore investment and we are benefiting from the many functional and financial benefits of putting it in use. The SAN now enables flexibility in administration, ease of expansion and the ability to dynamically allocate storage where and when we need it. DataCore caching accelerates overall performance and delivers a much higher data throughput. The software approach ensures the ease of transfer and the ability to use SAN-wide features on different hardware arrays and devices. Thus it is a very cost-effective way to mirror data. For our demanding ERP application, the fact that we could run FusionIO Solid State Disks under the DataCore virtualization and management solution was critical. We gained tremendous performance from adding FusionIO SSDs and overall we reduce energy and cooling costs."
“The performance and data availability delivered by SANsymphony-V enables our IT staff and medical staff each to focus on what they do best. When patients’ lives are on the line, health care professionals cannot tolerate having to wait for information because a system is offline for maintenance. The DataCore storage virtualization software has dramatically improved how we manage our storage resources and has given us a cost-effective solution to manage ongoing expansion.”
“What we have found with the DataCore and Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 + Hyper-V combination is a virtual infrastructure that is redundant, reliable, flexible and expandable.”
"We are very pleased to add Berri to the growing list of users in Australia protecting their data with DataCore,"
“We have been using DataCore SANsymphony for years now and we are completely satisfied with it. It’s an easy to manage solution with a good price-to-performance ratio. The combination of DataCore and VMware helps us implement a shared strategy despite the differing requirements at our various international locations.”
“In terms of reducing storage costs, decreasing the time we spend on routine storage tasks, and reducing storage-related downtime, software defined storage from DataCore means we are able to ally business objectives with IT – and through DataCore’s technology, we can meet those objectives.”
