SeanJaz we are currently using your product and appreciate that your tool is the best option for us to migrate our vmware workloads to Stack HCI, unfortunately we are having several limitations which are limited to the product and as well as the HCI, few examples as below;
1. Windows 2kR2 not 100% supported.
2. LINUX & Cent OS not supported.
3. FCI / ISCSI limitation for shared disk.
4. DMZ servers not fully a robust, need lot of manual intervention.
5. Desktop VM's not supported.
6. Too many prerequisites related to the ADMIN$ share, access to MaaS URL, Port opening, UAC etc, which is not possible in secured environments.
7. The tool does a DISK conversion, and unable to resize the HDD to actual used data.
There are few more in my list, and if these are rectified the product will stand tall and unbeatable in the enterprise market and especially with lot of legacy dependent application owners like us. 🙂
