Gives an end-to-end view of your environment and has a very good interface for report creation and customization

Pros

"What I found most valuable in NetApp OnCommand Insight is that it gives me a complete view of the environment, particularly an end-to-end view. I can locate my searches and view my storage devices. I can also find my recent servers and other host devices. I can then map all those into a single view, so that I can learn about the performance of my devices, or if there's a bottleneck at a particular place. I like that I can view all those information in NetApp OnCommand Insight. I like that very much. I also like that NetApp OnCommand Insight has a very good interface that allows you to create and customize reports, and it also offers a bundle of reports as well."

Cons

"NetApp OnCommand Insight is a pretty good tool, and the only concern I have with it is the price. Its price is quite high and could be improved because the licensing feature of this particular tool is on a per GB basis instead of the price being for the complete tool itself. The more you discover, the more you need to pay, and this makes NetApp OnCommand Insight more costly when compared to other tools which are available in the market."

These products are extremely durable and last over time. They are designed to take a beating.

Pros

"I am very happy with the stability. When your customers don't notice anything wrong, that's the biggest win for a product. "

Cons

"When we first went to Cluster Mode, we had a lot of problems. Setup took a few months. We had people onsite, including one of the top guys from NetApp for a while. Going from 7-Mode to Cluster Mode was rough. "

Significantly improved our mean time to resolution, give us the ability to integrate with multiple systems

Pros

"This gives me better performance numbers and gives me more information about where my loopholes are, where I need to target my customers, where I need to go back and retain storage. "

Cons

"A little bit more from technical support would give us a little bit more insight."

Security is the key for our clients: When we identify a vulnerability it's easy to mitigate

Pros

"The most valuable feature is the security. When we identify a vulnerability, it is easy to mitigate it. NetApp provides the solution. It's also easy to create and move volumes."

Cons

"I would like them to develop voice commands so that I can say to the product, "Create a volume.""

Data analysis and reporting help us identify data for cold and hot storage

Pros

"The most valuable feature is definitely the reports, the complete analysis of the data. We also like the scalability, since it can work with Hitachi, Isilon, etc."

Cons

"From 7-Mode to C mode a migration happened and many features, like FTP and SFTP, were dropped. We have been using it, but there needs to be better communication when features are dropped because there are end users using it who might find it a shock: "Oh, why was that dropped?""

It's stable and gives good feedback on performance

Pros

"It's stable and gives good feedback on performance."

Cons

"I would like to see better graphics. We have seen regular graphs and pie graphs. I am sure that there are better ways to show this information."

It gives us the ability to look at our storage and figure out what we are doing with it

Pros

"Once we gathered and saw what we were doing with everything, we saved close to a petabyte worth of data by being able to delete old data and move stuff around. Thus, we became more efficient."

Cons

"The initial setup is complex. There is a lot of stuff to set up. I had to teach my guys a lot of things, so there was a lot of learning."
