Find out what your peers are saying about Dell Technologies, NetApp, Pure Storage and others in All-Flash Storage."The solution offers amazing performance."
"Pure Storage FlashArray's overall speed is its most valuable feature."
"The performance is very good."
"The code upgrades are very smooth."
"We can store more for a cheaper price as opposed to paying for larger devices and larger rack spaces which get outdated sooner and which we'd have to change every two years. It simplifies storage for us."
"The most valuable features are extremely low latency, high IOPS with VMware, inline deduplication and compression."
"I use all the features of this solution and I find them to be easy to use and functional, such as the compression and capacity to expand."
"All our junior partners can administer the storage arrays. It is simple and easy to use. We don't have to dedicate a whole team of full time people to work on it."
"It has reduced our electricity usage by reducing the amount of disks needed for the virtual environment."
"It provides a combination of all the protocols that you need, without losing deduplication and compression."
"Data Compression: Up to 80% space reduction in the database"
"High performance and ease-of-management are the most valuable features."
"It performed great originally, and when it performed great, it was awesome."
"EasyTier/hotcaching: Valuable because it allows greater performance than standard SAS disks"
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"It's very fast. We were seeing read latencies of less than one millisecond. It is robust."
"The most valuable features are simplified provisioning and management, de-duplication, and built-in encryption."
"I can't see where they can make anything better, unless, of course, they lower their prices even more."
"Its price could be cheaper. It is not the cheapest one out there, but I'm not directly involved in the figures and negotiations."
"Larger capacity and more storage ports would be the two things I'd like to see."
"CIFS and SMB Shares cannot be mounted directly."
"Automation could be simplified."
"I would like to see support for NVMe, end-to-end."
"This product has only two active controllers, whereas other solutions can have more. This is something that needs to improve."
"Beyond a certain amount of petabytes, you have to have a separate system. Basically, it's not infinitely scalable."
"They need to offer better integration for a virtual platform to enable you to create hyper-converged solution."
"It's somewhat scalable, but maybe not so much as some of the competition."
"We had just one small stability problem with power flapping and it did not start up again automatically. We had to access service ports and manually restart the storage processors."
"Performance is horrible now. Our original intent was to buy new storage in about two years. But since it became a critical urgency for us, we decided to purchase a new one in two or three months."
"In the proxy section you can’t choose a user account and password, so it is not allowed at the moment to go out, if customer has such constellation."
"It only keeps one hour of real-time data without the ability to do deep analysis of each element."
"Technical support is bad. It'd grade them at 30% or 40%. The response time is terrible."
"Snapshots are not as easy to access as on a NetApp device."
"The exterior display needs to be improved."
