The SwiftTest Solution

There’s a better way to test

At the core of SwiftTest is a next generation platform for advanced, L4-L7 protocol emulation. The SwiftTest team’s association with the storage vendors has yielded the industry’s deepest and most accurate storage emulation. SwiftTest is now the world leader in networked storage emulation, trusted by leading Network Equipment Manufacturers as well as all the major Storage Equipment Manufacturers.

“We’re growing fast, and need test tools beyond what we can do in house. We found SwiftTest to be better than any other solution we looked at and the SwiftTest 3000 is more than filling our needs. Particularly with the depth and maturity of their CIFS/SMB tools, we can expand into new markets and support bigger customers.”
— Chris Siakos, CTO, Exinda

Our solution combines the industry’s deepest and most accurate emulation of networked storage protocols and workloads, with the highest load performance available, capable of stressing today’s largest infrastructures.
