"The product provides the fastest technology.""Integrating Hitachi Content Platform with existing systems is not challenging.""The most valuable features of the solution are the versioning and the ransomware protection.""As an architect, I like the management features that come with Hitachi Content Platform because it makes things easy.""We are using Content Platform for data migration, and it integrates with our HNS platform. This is good because we can integrate it with our existing HNS and SAP solutions. The GUI is also user-friendly. It doesn't take much time to do anything. If we know the architecture and the steps, we can do what we need with a few clicks.""Feature-wise, it has a lot of features. The most valuable features include de-duplication, encryption, version controlling, support, and tamper-proof data.""The way that they handle the DR is very good because when there is a failover, it is seamless to the users.""The Hitachi Content Platform is a stable and reliable solution."

Cons
"Cloudian HyperStore needs to incorporate AI and predictive analysis. It would be helpful if the solution could analyze and predict how to manage data better. The end users should not have access to protected documents. They should be able to drop the documents. The capacity management dashboard can be better. We also want two-factor authentication using Google Authenticator or Microsoft Authenticator as MFA. Hence, the user would access the console not just by logging in with a password and username but with third-party applications as well.""As it is an S3 solution with the same protocol as the one we have with AWS, having better integration with AWS will be beneficial.""It is a cloud-based environment and at times, it is not very simple to use."

"Hitachi Content Platform is a complicated solution. You need to put several pieces of the hardware together in order to achieve the capacity or the performance needed.""At present, it is complicated to use the CLI command.""This product's ability to track logs for access still needs to be improved.""When you want to replace a disk, we need to start the maintenance from the S nodes. We have to automate maintenance so any onsite engineer can replace it after that, but we don't need to do this on VSP platforms. An engineer can come in and replace that specific disk. If also we could do that on Hitachi Content Platform, it would be great for us.""There is room for improvement in the capacity for integration with other platforms.""The user interface isn't as user-friendly, and the management platform UI isn't as intuitive as others. So it can be more user-friendly.""They should improve the user interface. It's a little bit complex. It does not have a self-learning method. You need to know how to use it before you touch the system. The user interface is not self-explanatory.""Two things that can be improved are pricing and configuration. Mostly the pricing is an issue. And if I were to add anything, I would say more integration with backup solutions such as Veeam Backup."
