"Simplified Virtualized Storage with StorMagic"

5/5

What do you like best about StorMagic?

What I like most about StorMagic is its sincere setup and capability to supply dependable garage solutions for area environments. Its lightweight architecture, excessive availability, and minimal hardware desires make it a sensible and green desire. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about StorMagic?

StorMagic lacks advanced analytics and will gain from a greater present day, intuitive consumer interface. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good product, Sublime support"

3.5/5

What do you like best about StorMagic?

Don't know how they do it, but their support team is consistently fast. You'll get a reply within 15min, at night! This adds a lot of solidity to the product in general.

I can't say anything about the amount of features. all configuration is done within the web interface. The fact they've added the cloud witness feature (hosted in Stormagic AWS, and minimal config for the customer) is great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about StorMagic?

The fact that it doesn't add as much value to each platform it sits on. It feels as if it's built and tested on vmware. It's more practical to setup on ESX hosts. On Hyper-V, there are much more things to consider when it comes to shared storage. But one has to question if this isn't just a MS problem rather than Stormagic. (Windows Failover Cluster configuration experience is required) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is StorMagic solving and how is that benefiting you?

Sales and running costs of Stormagic are far below the costs of a physical SAN + disks.

Stormagic targets exactly those SMB's where all servers fit on 2 server nodes. It integrates in existing environments or can be setup on new hardware.

In Europe, most SMB's work like this, but struggle to maintain the servers because they operate independant from each other.

Stormagic combines storage in 1 pool, making it fast and easy to migrate running servers from one node to the other.

Maintenance can be done, redundancy is added when hardware fails.

So you get quite good value for your money.

That being said, there are also open source solutions with enterprise support, that can be setup to do all of the above for 1/5 of the cost.

"The product is very solid and the Support staff are excellent."

5/5

What do you like best about StorMagic?

Set it and forget it. It just works and I don't have to monitor it constantly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about StorMagic?

I haven't enabled full vCenter DRS yet and so my DR strategy is weak. That's not StorMagic's fault, but is the only shortcoming in my deployment. I'd like to see more publications on deployment design examples, How-To's so that I can improve my overall knowledge. And to be honest, there probably is already more information out there that I haven't seen yet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
