Having a basic understanding of iSCSI will help greatly during the implementation but it is not required as their deployment engineer will guide you through the entire process. > > **Cons**: The management VM is a standard linux deployment it is not proprietary with built-in lock down functionality like other vendors on the market have with different products. This VM also needs to have automatic updates enabled on it via third-party tools in the CLI if security patching is a requirement in your organization. > > StorMagic SvSAN fills the gap of VSAN technology after the Broadcom aquisition of VMware. Their product is very cost-effective and can save an organization lots of money on VMware licensing given their new vSAN licensing model. ----- ### "Data encryption" — 5.0/5 > **Erika** | *5 January 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: I Like their data encryption is higher then I suspected. > > **Cons**: StorMagic svSAN should improve on their AI system > > It has prevented Data loss via strong encryption. ----- ### "Cost effective software" — 4.0/5 > **Aniruddh** | *16 January 2025* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Simple hyperconverged storage that eliminates downtime > > **Cons**: Nothing as such, we didn't face any challenges with storemagic > > Our data team loves using Storemagic as it helps us in reducing downtime, and cost effectiveness ----- ### "svSAN - A secure and effective virtual storage solution for cost reduction today" — 5.0/5 > **David** | *27 November 2024* | Information Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: HA - High availability and business continuity offered by svSAN. It is functional, practical, the process is transparent and mitigates the risks in the event of a Host failure. > > **Cons**: I know that it is a product that is taking shape in terms of its development. But where I see the weakest side is the compatibility it has with external systems which are usually dependent on today. > > I like the design of the interface (although it is basic at the moment, I think it has a practical, flexible and easy-to-use design). Another thing I really like is that it has all the fundamental properties to virtualize efficiently. ----- ### "Efficient Use of local Hard Drives with reliable Software" — 5.0/5 > **Martin** | *27 November 2024* | Chemicals | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easy access to technical support. Small Price. High Quality / Stability of the software. Good UI. > > **Cons**: Professional Consultant is needed to work on this due to high impact on failure and complexity of the hardware raids. > > It's efficient, does what it should. Technical Support is directly accessible. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/430367/stormagic-svsan?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/430367/stormagic-svsan) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
