Oliver Timm
Managing Director in MMiT GmbH
I am amazed by Open-E’s software – the Open-E JovianDSS. Countless administrative options including fully automated, round-the-clock backups have made our everyday life noticeably easier. N-TEC’s approach to this project was extremely engaging and convincing. All expectations were fully met - and in most cases even far exceeded. It’s not only our customers who now benefit enormously from this solution but we as a company too, as we were able to drastically reduce our time expenditure in many areas of activity. Especially the option of being able to restore data states - at any time, in the shortest possible time – gives us a sense of security. Our customers can rest assured that threats like ransomware attacks will remain a phenomenon that we only know from media reports.I’m looking forward to expanding our main system and purchasing our second backup server. Due to the continuous growth, we were able to upgrade all our systems with hard disks and licenses and respond as needed in an economic sense.
Naveen Srivastava
VFX Supervisor / Owner in The Vanity
We are constantly getting larger and larger files to work with. As our business grows, more artists need faster access to shared storage. Because we are constantly pushing the clock on deadlines trying to deliver the best product possible, there isn’t any space for downtime. We need speed as well as reliability. We have absolutely no complaints so far. The system is extremely fast and we've had zero downtime. What more could anyone ask for? We’re thrilled with the expanded capacity in storage. It seems like every new project shoots at higher and higher resolutions, which means more data. No one’s ever wished they’d bought smaller disks. The sheer size of the NAS makes us feel comfortable looking ahead. We are fortunate to say that a number of the top brands in North America trust and put their faith in our hands. We are taking on new challenges every day with our expanding team. The future appears to be quite bright.
Cliff Pascas
Project Manager in Status Automation
We get performance, reliability, scalability, and top of class service and support plus a bid winning price point.
Markus Gufler
Technical Director in Limitis
We sleep much better now than with the previous solution. As the system works consistently and quickly, we have significantly fewer support cases than previously when the system was reaching its performance limits.
Thomas Halbe
Managing Director in IT-Beratung HALBE
The main reason we have chosen the redundant fail-proof storage solution based on Open-E JovianDSS presented by Boston Server & Storage Solutions was the perfect harmonization of stability, performance, scalability, and flexibility (which is more and more important these days). It allows us to react perfectly to the market needs. Another noteworthy aspect is the amount of electricity saved, about 4 kWh per day, which, thanks to the modern hardware, also benefits the environment and has a positive impact on our electricity costs. Especially the transparent advice in the area of hardware design possibilities on the part of Boston Germany, along with a fair price, convinced me - à la bonne heure. With this solution, we have created the optimal set of their applications in the home office for our customers.
Bernd Neumann
Head of IT Infrastructure in Möbel Preiss
I’ve been managing the IT infrastructure of Möbel Preiss for more than 20 years. I was able to see many server systems coming and going. But the Open-E DSS V7 cluster solution turned out to be a solution tailor-made for us. In compariston to the DELL storage solution we used before, we achieved real redundancy and it was noticeably faster. In my opinion, Open-E has raised the bar even higher with Open-E JovianDSS. We are thrilled with the ease of use, the quality and stability of the storage software and we are pleased that now with the two existing storage nodes have been using for several months it led to our fullest satisfaction. Impressive was also the Open-E Support Service who despite many obstacles did their best to provide us with at least one working node the next day. What is more, we did not notice any change in performance.
Rainer Werner Kaese
Senior Manager in Toshiba Electronics Europe GmbH
The setup was installed and brought into production at e-shelter on August 30, 2017. Apart from a single planned shutdown in Nov 2018 due to a JovianDSS update, there hasn’t been a single disk failure nor a second of downtime since then. The e-shelter Innovation Lab team, partners and Toshiba Electronics Europe GmbH are very pleased with the impressive performance and stability of Open-E’s JovianDSS.
Christoph Duis
Manager IT in Mitsui & Co. Deutschland GmbH
We use Dell hardware in our company and we also wanted to run our Open-E High Availability Cluster on this platform. We were convincingly and competently consulted regarding the selection of suitable hardware as well as the subsequent configuration. The result is a High Availability Cluster with an outstanding price-performance ratio. Partly because ITgration GmbH understood how to implement the project in such a way that it perfectly met our requirements.
NWÜ Security
“The main challenge to be overcome was the responsiveness of the control center, which mainly provides mission-critical security and service. After six years of using Open-E DSS V6, the insights gained in terms of product stability, performance and the uncomplicated, solution-oriented and sympathetic service provided by Open-E there was no reason to strive for a change in product and supplier. After careful consideration of each product the conclusion was: “Never change a winning team!” and we decided for a transfer to the Open-E DSS V7 Data Storage Software.”
Memon Bionic Instruments
The employees in the terminal server sessions with the frontend of the CRM were impressed by the high performance of Open-E JovianDSS. As a test, we also ran these SQL VMs on the old DSS V7 cluster. The initial opening of an address database (about 2.2 billion addresses) took up to 22 seconds in the old system, the second opening went down to 17 seconds. The same VMs open the address database on Open-E JovianDSS system in less than 2 seconds. The second opening of all databases is obviously not measurable because of the good caching. In addition, videos for online training and internal promotional purposes run from Open-E JovianDSS Cluster did not indicate any performance slumps to date. Memon has confirmed the full success of the system.
