Case Study: ClearPointe boosts storage performance tenfold with Microsoft Storage Spaces

ClearPointe - Customer Case Study

ClearPointe, a managed IT services provider, faced performance and scalability limitations with its storage area network (SAN) while needing to support business growth. The company sought a more cost-effective and flexible storage solution for its operations, which included managing Microsoft server applications for its global clients.

Microsoft provided the solution with its Windows Server 2012 R2 operating system, specifically utilizing its Storage Spaces technology. By implementing this software-defined storage approach, ClearPointe achieved a tenfold increase in storage performance, reduced costs by a factor of six, and eliminated 20-30 hours of monthly troubleshooting, all while gaining greater scalability and doubled reliability.
