We like that we can start small and expand later without much complexity. We initially deployed a 2-node cluster with a witness, and then scaled to support multiple companies. The centralized management helps us control multiple clusters easily, which is important since our IT team is not large Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some features take time to fully understand, especially when you’re managing multiple clusters. Planning for a multi-site deployment also needs to be done carefully from the beginning, since it’s much easier when you think it early . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to manage, with integrated tools and an intuitive user interface. Excellent support from the Sangfor staff as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

At the moment, I haven't encountered any particular problems, but my use has been very limited because I don't yet have a particularly significant installation. That said, I have noticed that the system resources required are quite high. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Most cloud management platforms treat security as a series of separate plug-ins or third-party integrations that you have to stitch together via APIs. Sangfor natively embeds its security DNA right into the software stack. You get built-in distributed firewalls, WAF capabilities, and a closed-loop system for detection and response without having to toggle between different vendor dashboards or manage competing operational interfaces.

Integrating specific third-party virtual appliances, specialized security gateways, or legacy enterprise applications often requires extra manual configurations and custom scripting Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

SANGFOR HCI is very user-friendly. When we moved from VMware to SANGFOR HCI, we did not face any challenges related to day-to-day administrative tasks, and the team got enabled on it quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Automated "Micro-Segmentation" While firewalling isn't new, the Distributed Firewall management has become much more intuitive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

To be balanced, while the Sangfor Cloud Platform (SCP) is a powerhouse for "all-in-one" management, there are a few areas where it still feels a bit behind the major global players. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like best about Sangfor Cloud Platform is its simple and integrated management. It combines computing, storage, networking, and virtualization into a single platform, making deployment and daily operations easier while providing a cost-effective solution for building and managing private clouds. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One drawback of Sangfor Cloud Platform is that its ecosystem and third-party integrations are generally not as extensive as more established platforms like VMware or Nutanix. Organizations with complex environments may find fewer integration options and a smaller community knowledge base when troubleshooting or seeking specialized expertise.

I use Sangfor Cloud Platform for managing our core services, such as databases for mail and web systems. I appreciate the simplification of tasks and the quick and competent support. It is a unique platform that manages virtualization, security, networking, and storage. What I like most is the ease of use and storage management. The management of features is simple, even when they would normally be complex. Data security is guaranteed, with rapid secure replication across multiple nodes, and fault management is simple. After an initial explanation, it was extremely easy to set up the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

from my personal experience, there are no particular issues and any problem that arises is promptly handled by the support team Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to manage, with great support, and it represents all server and network resources clearly. Monitoring is straightforward because everything is available on a single page. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It’s mainly about the price. If possible, the price could be reduced a little, so we can continue our business without worrying about expenses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The solution significantly enhances daily productivity, thus providing an intuitive interface where even those with little knowledge can operate. Integration with API for some external solutions works well, and the performance of the solution compared to others in the market is surprising, not to mention that the ROI is much lower compared to the market. Support is always very good and proactive when needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Improve the API documentation and include only what works in the manual, improve compatibility of HBA controllers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find the Sangfor Cloud Platform really useful for its ability to cluster multiple sites on one page. I use the built-in backup and DR features, which are particularly valuable for our clinical applications as they help reduce downtime. I also appreciate that setting it up was easy, with great vendor support, and the switch from VMware was influenced by the price and features Sangfor offers.
