Datacore SANsymphony review
Reviewed on 2019/01/31
Pros
It just works, configure your storage (not tied to any vendor) and you are up and running.
Cons
Older versions were not very stable running on Server 2008. That has changed with MS 2012/2016.

We are now able to provide storage redundancy for the organization which is critical in a healthcare environment. SANSymphony also makes failover between arrays easy and very convenient when we have to perform maintenance on them.
Pros
SANSymphony provides the redundancy and stability we need in our 24/7 environment, and it does so flawlessly. We need reliability and SanSymphony delivers
Cons
While the product does work as advertised, initial implementation was not without its challenges. To be fair, we did have a very complex environment with 6 different arrays so this was not unexpected.

DataCore SAN Symphony : Storage virtualization software
Reviewed on 2020/02/09
Its been a decent experience until now and its been almost 3 years since i used this product
Its been a decent experience until now and its been almost 3 years since i used this product
Pros
DataCore SAN Symphony is one of the best software defined storage virtualization software for small enterprises who can't afford SAN/NAS storage hardware. It helps in creating software defined storage environments for VDI environments which can provide optimization of storage by combing SSDs and HDD which gives you auto tiering option especially for hyper-v environments.
Cons
Works well with Windows Hyper-v however on other hypervisor platforms DataCore SAN Symphony is not a suitable option and licenses are also expensive which basically depends on the amount of storage being considered for virtualization.

Fantastic software, but not the best storage platform for ease of use.

Pros
Datacore SANSymphony is robust software, with industry leading storage management. It's very well designed by a great group of people and supported by a dedicated and intelligent group
Cons
Datacore does a bad job of marketing themselves, unfortunately. Add to that the fact that the software cost is high relative to many competitors and the fact that it's a much easier prospect to go with an appliance based storage vendor from a management standpoint (not a cost perspective).

This company is a leader in Software-Defined Storage and is constantly proving their innovative qualities.
Pros- Their product is hardware agnostic, so you are never locked in to a particular vendor. The company's storage virtualization software empowers organizations to seamlessly manage and scale their data storage architectures. They have recently announced their new Parallel I/O technology which continues to amaze with its cost savings and increased response times. They have achieved an SPC-1 world record. Definitely worth looking into.
