“I am a huge fan of Virtual SAN. Traditional SANs require a lot of babysitting; we noticed we had TBs of over-provisioned storage. With Virtual SAN we were able to buy just what we need. We cut costs by 75% and don’t need to babysit storage anymore. System resiliency is …

“I also found the management of it, from my perspective, to be so much easier. Our ability to respond to requests and general administrative responsiveness has been so much better. Before, it was like being on call all the time. Now with VSAN, I don’t have to worry at all.”

“The bottom line is that our annual support costs increase in a much smaller, more manageable way with vSAN. It’s more affordable, and with the current 132 TB of capacity, there’s plenty of room to grow; adding more just means adding another virtual node.”

“VMware NSX allows us to operate systems and applications in any physical network infrastructure. It allows scaling of network services along with the use of hypervisor and adapt them to the needs of applications. Customers obtain a higher variability of services at significantly lower costs.”

“We had a greenfield environment, set up everything new, and it was really quite simple. Literally, just a few clicks. Provisioning storage is now easy, like provisioning servers.”

“In the end, the Next Generation EASY Cloud allowed flexible proposals to meet user needs. Furthermore, they plan to take advantage of its high cost-efectiveness and performance by also using it on the Vistara platform, the SaaS model cloud operation management service. They are also considering moving to an all-flash …

"VMware vSAN achieves higher IOPS than expected and doesn't require any cumbersome volume (LUN) management. It ensures high performance and expandability without the need for dedicated storage, allowing us to provide highly reliable storage services for the enterprise user."

"They have had zero trouble with VMware vSAN since installing it at the beginning of 2015. It is very stable and demonstrates performance that dramatically surpasses what was originally expected. They are free to choose their own hardware and design clusters, which avoids an additional increase in operational load."

“When building shared storage, it took several months to progress from the gathering of information to design, estimates, careful planning, maintenance of surrounding environments, delivery, testing, and actual implementation. Since this requires a high-level of knowledge, it also took time to prepare the operations staff. However, with vSAN, simply procuring …

“Although vSAN is a new technology, you can use functions such as data stores and HA as usual, without increasing the load on the end user. Even after 18 months since first installing the system, it runs stably and without trouble. It is great that it takes such little effort …

“I was blown away with the implementation of VMware Virtual SAN and VDI. No single thing that we had done in the past had caused that extent of change from a user point of view.”

“The new storage system has now been in use for six months, and every single day we notice how easy it is to maintain and how liable it is. It takes less of working time to do things compared to the old system.”

“With VMware technologies, the university achieved the targeted infrastructure. A high speed network infrastructure resulted in a noticeable performance increase on the network side.”

“It only takes a few clicks to make changes to Virtual SAN. Better yet, I can use my same VMware administrators to manage Virtual SAN without needing to hire SAN engineers.”

“It’s straightforward to monitor and manage vSAN storage. Now any of our system engineers can help out when it’s time to add or maintain storage.”
