Overview

Visual Storage Intelligence™ (VSI) is a SaaS that provides a visual health analysis of your complex SAN environment in minutes.

As the complexity of a storage environment grows, so does the complexity of visualizing and assessing storage utilization. Accordingly, IT departments spend hours assessing, compiling, and trying to predict current and future storage usage – often adding time and money to analyses.

VSI quickly helps you visually map out your SAN storage utilization, configuration, and free space. Without installing anything, VSI’s technology provides a true in-depth analysis of a SAN environment. Users have taken what they thought was a properly-configured SAN and used VSI to identify current and future issues – all of which saved them time, money, and effort.
