Van Eck Global
"After the implementation of a geoclustered remote site offering real-time failover, Van Eck became concerned that communications with that site was hampered by a single T3 uplink from headquarters. The possibility of unnecessary failovers and failbacks loomed large, and the addition of a second T3 brought new problems. We needed different load-balancing logic depending on protocol and source IP: some traffic was to be evenly balanced across all active connections; other traffic needed to go only over a preferred connection unless there'd been connection failure; still other traffic (geocluster "heartbeats") needed a static path with no balancing.
Only Elfiq's LLB line offered the full functionality necessary, so even if price had been no object, Elfiq still would have been our choice -- but the affordability of the Elfiq was impressive as well.
During installation and beyond, Elfiq support engineers were responsive around the clock, and developers even hotfixed the OS after we found a site-specific need that wasn't in the current release.
Van Eck's experience with Elfiq on both technical and customer service levels has been nothing short of superb. We recommend their products whenever we're asked (and sometimes without being asked!)."
