Sure, I mean, but, anybody can say that. "We'd rather not you publish your review of our product, it's so easy for the reviewer to make a mistake and say something negative about our product. So, you are not allowed to publish any examination of our product."
- wila 11y agoYou ARE allowed to post test results, but they like to review your tests to make sure you didn't make any obvious mistakes. Quote from the .pdf file higher up in this thread: <quote> You may use the Software to conduct internal performance testing and benchmarking studies, the results of which you (and not unauthorized third parties) may publish or publicly disseminate; provided that VMware has reviewed and approved of the methodology, assumptions and other parameters of the study. Please contact VMware at benchmark@vmware.com to request such review. </ quote> For example here's a review from storagereview.com on VSAN http://www.storagereview.com/vmware_virtual_san_review_overview_and_configuration http://www.storagereview.com/vmware_virtual_san_review_overv...
