Robertson Loia Roof, PC ensures consistent project delivery by creating flexible and easy-to-administer storage around StarWind Virtual SAN (VSAN)

CHALLENGE

Before deploying StarWind Virtual SAN (VSAN), Robertson Loia Roof, PC transitioned to a VMware- based virtualization environment, but it became apparent that traditional SAN solutions were either too high-maintenance or prohibitively expensive for its business needs. This situation created a significant barrier to efficient IT operations, leading to concerns about long-term sustainability and scalability.

Despite exploring various options, the alternatives lacked the balance of cost-effectiveness and hardware flexibility that RLR needed to streamline its operations and enhance its IT capabilities.

StarWind VSAN offered us unparalleled value in its cost and hardware flexibility. We felt like we had greater control vs. the classic static SAN hardware.

SOLUTION

Robertson Loia Roof, PC chose StarWind VSAN as it offered greater control and adaptability, compared to traditional SAN hardware. The deployment of StarWind VSAN during the initial migration to VMware-based virtualization eliminated the complexities and high costs associated with alternative SAN storage solutions.

The resulting infrastructure is easy to administer, cost-effective, and backed by StarWind ProActive Premium Support that consistently exceeded expectations. Looking ahead, RLR has retained StarWind in its second generation of virtualization, underscoring the lasting benefits and trust in StarWind’s solutions to support its ongoing and future IT infrastructure needs.
