"When I started using CloudSphere, it wasn't mature, and it had multiple issues. For example, my team experienced server issues while using the solution, but recently, I noticed how much CloudSphere has improved. There used to be some latency issues with CloudSphere. It even gave error messages in the past when you select an option such as "the web server is not responding", but it has improved a lot, and now I don't get any errors from CloudSphere. What I like best about CloudSphere is that it has a lot of beneficial features, and it has a single pane for managing multi-cloud environments, which I find very helpful, and it's the main benefit you can get from CloudSphere."
"We do not need to install any appliances or any agents."
"For the customers I work with, it provides flexibility as far as storage is concerned, so it's security and access."
"The product is helpful for the management, optimization, and utilization of resources."
"The seamlessness behind the scenes of block management."
"HPE StoreVirtual is very easy to use from the management console."
"I guess on the top of the list is certainly ease of use."
"Simplicity of not having to buy FC or FCoE SAN. Instead, we buy servers with their own storage."
"It's very stable and it's easy to use."
"he interface and the installation makes it easy as it's all in one piece of hardware and it doesn't need to be connected to anything else."
"The solution is very stable."
"Thin provisioning lets us get the most value from the hard drives."
"There are quite a number of services that can't be deployed using CloudSphere."
"The main issue I experienced from CloudSphere was recently resolved, but an area for improvement in the solution is that it lacks the functionality of migrating resources from one public cloud to another. If CloudSphere could provide that functionality, that would be very beneficial to users and companies."
"The solution must have a single management console for the resources and VMs."
"The next feature I would like to have full disclosure of what's being done with the data."
"When we start the scanning of, for example, 500 servers, it will not handle the scan. We need to differentiate the jobs - for example, one job for 100 servers, a second job for another 100 servers, et cetera."
"In our country, Qatar, most of the industry isn't using too much HP. StoreVirtual doesn't move fast. It's not a popular product."
"It would be nice if there were more parts available in Brazil and HPE could swap out faulty equipment quicker."
"Configuration of application integrated snapshots for VMware is convoluted and it did not work immediately."
"The solution needs to ensure it is on par with the industry in terms of availability of features and various other options."
"It is a costly solution."
"The initial setup could be simplified to make it easier for new users."
"The product is coming to end-of-life in the next three years."
"I would like to have this solution easily integrate with VMware."
