Inexpensive Storage
Rating: 8 out of 10
IncentivizedUse Cases and Deployment Scope
We are using Exablox in two ways. First, as a SMB file share for departments in the college, and second as a datastore for our VMware ESXi environment.
Pros
- Exablox is simple to setup and relatively easy to use.
- Exablox is priced very competitively and is a good value for the cost.
- Exablox has good customer service.
Cons
- Exablox is still in its infancy as a company and in some respects the product feels like a version 1.0.
- Integration with VMware ESXi has some bugs that need to be figured out.
Likelihood to Recommend
For SMB file storage Exablox is great, but as an ESXi datastore it still needs work.
