"This product is very competitive."
"It's my understanding that the initial setup is straightforward."
"I like that the solution is easy to scale and that's its stable."
"The stability is the most valuable aspect of the solution."
"The performance is good."
"It's definitely good for unstructured data. In earlier days, we had Centera, so for the DR it's really good. It has load balancing facility, and we're using it with the Kemp Load Balancer."
"What I like best about this product is that it is a complete solution, both hardware, and software, by the same vendor."
"It is 100% stable. It is also scalable."
"PCF is open, so the applications run really smoothly and with little downtime."
"Stability is not a concern with this product."
"The most valuable features are the monitoring and the deployment is easier."
"The solution needs to provide better integration between this solution and all other kinds of systems."
"You should be able to calculate so that when it's full it's 100% full, not just 90%."
"The disaster recovery could be improved because there should be something in-built within the ECS. Search and recovery should be in-built. Right now, we have to use some external tools for performing the recovery itself. For example, we're using Atempo or deploying Golden Superna, so it has dependency on the external third party vendors."
"Technical support needs to be improved."
"In Taiwan, they don't have professional technical support."
"The solution could be more cost-effective and secure."
"Its security can be improved."
"They do not have complete documentation, which is very weak and could be improved."
"It is not straightforward to setup."
"The user interface should be simpler to navigate because it t can take time for users to learn it."
"In the next release, I would like to see easy integration with external tools."
