StorMagic Reviews

Praxis IFM

Andrew Ingrouille | Group Head of Technology

“StorMagic’s stretch cluster capability enabled us to spread the hardware between two different datacentres that are 30 miles apart, while still delivering the required performance for all of our applications and users. SvSAN has dramatically lowered our storage costs, reduced risk and enhanced performance.”

CASE STUDY

Cover & Rossiter

Darren Wright | IT Consultant

“StorMagic and HCI are changing the way IT staffs are able to manage data today. SvSAN offers never before seen affordability and flexibility, and fits both the requirements and budgets for many environments — from accounting firms, to small medical offices and multi-branch retail stores, to large enterprise environments. Data management has gone from nearly impossible to nonexistent since we installed our SvSAN solution; customers can virtually eliminate downtime and outage losses with StorMagic.”

CASE STUDY

Digital Risk, LLC

David Mahgerefteh | Director of IT

“With StorMagic and Cisco UCS, we were able to use just two servers and avoid the up-front and maintenance costs associated with a SAN, saving around $250,000.”

CASE STUDY

Milwaukee Water Works

George Knops | Network Administrator

“It’s fast and easy to get up and running, extremely reliable and by far the easiest product I’ve dealt with. In minutes we were able to present datastores to our environment. Working with the technical support was nothing short of awesome.”

CASE STUDY

RWE Renewables

Uwe Fischer | Head of Asset Information Systems

“StorMagic’s SvSAN enables us to cost effectively implement simple, 2-server highly available systems with minimal hardware requirements. With VMware and SvSAN at each location, we dramatically reduce the risk of downtime for energy-production applications and eliminate the need for on-site support. High availability is essential for us to maintain continuity of operations at our remote sites. However the extreme location challenges we face mean that physical shared storage solutions are prohibitively expensive for us to implement.”

CASE STUDY

Merit Network

Will Turner | Storage Engineer

“Our old storage platform was a poor fit, troubling us with low performance and reliability issues. When considering alternatives, our requirements were a scalable solution with solid performance and reliability, and ideally with a two-server configuration – so we chose SvSAN. We will be deploying SvSAN in other future projects that call for remote deployment, to avoid network cuts and we use it for monitoring purposes. We’re happy with StorMagic’s support when we’ve needed it and will definitely be renewing our maintenance and support contract.”

University of Oxford

Diggory Gray | IT Officer

“With StorMagic, the University of Oxford’s Faculty of Classics now has true high availability for our most important applications at a very low cost – and without using significant server or people resources.”

CASE STUDY

We improved the continuity and manageability of the system by combining servers with different brands and modalities into the same cluster. Our troublesome works were handled quickly thanks to StorMagic SvSAN.”
