Built for the SMB reality, not adapted to it.
Most enterprise platforms are designed for large teams and large budgets, then awkwardly slimmed down for SMB. Netframe is designed to work on both ends of the spectrum from day one.
Costs that scale with you
Per-core licensing. No surprise mid-term uplift. Start small, grow when you need to.
Production capability out of the box
HA, live migration, snapshots, and backup integration ship with the platform. No additional SKUs to bolt on later.
Operationally lightweight
Designed to be operated by small teams. Clean UI, fewer agents, and predictable behaviour you can teach in an afternoon.
Real support when you need it
Email and portal support backed by SLAs on paid tiers. You speak directly to engineers, not a triage queue.
Three nodes. Shared storage. Full HA.
The most common Netframe SMB topology is a three-node cluster with NFS shared storage, running Manager as a small VM, and Backup writing to a NAS or object store.
That topology gives you VM HA, live migration for planned maintenance, point-in-time backup, and a single operational console. It is built on commodity hardware that you likely already have.
Scale up by adding nodes. Scale to a second site by replicating with Backup. The platform grows with you.
- 3× Netframe Core hosts3 hypervisor nodes with VT-x / AMD-V (3-node minimum)
- 1× shared storageNFS shared storage (Netframe requires NFS shared storage; iSCSI, FC, Ceph, and local-only are not supported)
- 1× Manager VMSmall VM (4 vCPU, 8 GB RAM) hosted on one of the Core nodes
- 1× Backup targetNAS, object store, or dedicated backup server
- Network1 GbE management + 10 GbE storage (recommended)
"We migrated 180 VMs from vSphere in under two weeks. Netframe's Converter tool made the process painless, and we haven't looked back. The savings on licensing alone paid for our implementation in the first quarter."
Try it on the hardware you already own.
