CHALLENGE

Before deploying StarWind Virtual SAN (VSAN), SabreTech Consulting LLC relied on Microsoft Storage Spaces Direct (S2D) with Hyper-V as its hypervisor. However, the company faced persistent issues with stability and support. Storage outages were frequent, and Microsoft’s lack of effective support left the team stranded in diagnosing and resolving these problems independently. This instability posed a significant risk to its production environment.

We saved $20K with StarWind VSAN. The infrastructure works very well now. Going forward, we will be replacing all of our legacy SAN solutions with StarWind

SOLUTION

SabreTech Consulting LLC chose StarWind VSAN among other solutions due to its stability, economic feasibility, and excellent ProActive Premium Support. Unlike proprietary SAN options, StarWind allowed the company to utilize readily available hardware and scale its infrastructure efficiently.

The deployment of StarWind VSAN brought remarkable stability to SabreTech’s infrastructure. The company experienced scenarios that would have caused outages with S2D, yet StarWind remained available and resilient. Moving forward, SabreTech plans to replace all legacy SAN solutions with StarWind.The resulting infrastructure is not only stable but also capable of meeting production demands without being bottlenecked by software limitations.
