|---|---|---|
| Senior Storage Architect at a healthcare company with 1,001-5,000 employees | 4.0 | We used Qumulo primarily for file sharing and archiving in our marketing department. Its reliability and cost were appealing. Though software upgrades initially caused downtime, improvements reduced it significantly, making early morning updates feasible without major disruptions. |
| Senior System Engineer at a transportation company with 501-1,000 employees | 4.0 | We use Qumulo for end-user and application storage, valuing its rolling updates and availability. Although implementing failover required extra steps, it improved disaster recovery over our previous Windows Server, which lacked high availability. Some permission issues need addressing. |
| IT Specialist Server Operations at DSD | 4.5 | I use Qumulo to store live organization materials from major companies like Disney and Warner Bros. The solution offers easy management and efficient permissions. Although iMac support needs improvement, switching from Dell EMC Isilon has shown a positive ROI. |
| Streaming Engineer at a retailer with 51-200 employees | 4.0 | We use Qumulo for on-premises centralized media storage, valuing its ease of use, uninterrupted updates, and high IO speed. It offers cost savings and complements our existing Dell EMC and IBM Quantum solutions. Improved terminal control would be beneficial. |
| Ejecutivo de cuentas at a computer software company with 51-200 employees | 3.5 | I've used Qumulo for three years for archives and surveillance. Its data protection algorithm and backup integrations are valuable, but I wish for improved availability, data services, and more cloud API integrations. I'd rate it 7/10. |
| Director of Product Management at a tech services company with 51-200 employees | 3.5 | I use Qumulo for object-based storage, finding its cost-to-feature ratio excellent and stability good. Setup took a week, and pricing is mid-range. I'd like more automation and orchestration, rating it 7/10. |
| Product Manager at a tech services company with 10,001+ employees | 4.0 | As a reseller, I praise Qumulo's real-time analytics and scalability for software-defined file storage. It's stable and easy, but expensive and missing from Azure. I recommend this good product, rating it 8/10. |
| CTO / Co founder at a tech vendor with 11-50 employees | 4.0 | As a solution provider, I implement Qumulo for clients, appreciating its excellent analytics, easy setup, and responsive support. While it needs non-disruptive updates, I prefer it over Isilon for small to mid-sized companies, rating it 8/10. |
