We performed a comparison between Dell PowerStore and Tintri VMstore T7000 based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two All-Flash Storage solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature of this solution is its ease of use."
"FlashArray has some fresh efficiency features. I've never seen a storage solution with a compression rating this high before. It's at least 4-to-1 on Oracle databases. It's the best flash storage for Oracle."
"It has good, reliable, fast storage."
"Technical support has been helpful and responsive."
"The system allows for seamless learning experiences, facilitating quick and easy cloning of environments within minutes."
"The initial setup was extremely simple and straightforward."
"The Pure1 component is most valuable at this point in time when comparing it with EMC. Pure1 is where you can have your diagnostics in the cloud, so you can look at things from your mobile phone."
"The solution is scalable."
"The solution is extremely stable."
"Overall, we're quite happy with the product because we can move the data that is stored on more than 10 of our current storage devices to a single PowerStore."
"It has its own file formatting protocol, which saves a lot of space."
"PowerStore is easy to use. All the drives use soft encryption. To upgrade it, you download the app, and it runs by itself. It's very easy to deploy, share, and create volumes."
"The product's initial setup phase was very easy."
"Migrations are very easy and fast."
"The support is very good."
"The solution is easy to use and has good performance."
"It is great for finding problems where VMs are hogging all the performance."
"The management dashboards keep improving and allow for quick and easy tracing of issues."
"The ability to snap machines into VMware quickly is valuable."
"I like Tintri's Global Admin feature and the solution's performance. It's incredibly fast storage, which was a significant upgrade for us when we deployed it seven years ago. The Tintri snapshots are brilliant and incredibly reliable."
"I've worked on both EMC and NetApp SANs, and this is by far the easiest system to maintain"
"Performance, cost, and ease of storage management."
"You can control resources on a per VM basis to ensure that contention in resources does not hamper performance."
"Fast deployment for virtual machines"
"If the customer only needs 500 terabytes and doesn't care how much data they'll put in the server, IBM is cheaper than Pure."
"We would like to see more visibility into garbage collection and CPU performance in the GUI."
"It is on the expensive side."
"It's more multi-tenant functionality in their Pure1 manage portal that is lacking."
"There is room for improvement in the pricing of the product."
"We need better data deduplication."
"The software layer has to improve."
"Every time I think of something that needs to improve, they're one step ahead, which I love. The only area I wish to see improve, I believe is coming, is in the FlashBlade product. Blade implementation fell short on a few of the services."
"Horizontal scaling has room for improvement."
"The UI should be a little more user-friendly to manage."
"It doesn't support SSD or Flash."
"It's also only supported with a limited amount of switches."
"When it comes to Dell PowerStore, I would like to see more integration and more security features included. It's unfortunate that the solution does not feature Flash trace."
"Data reduction needs improvement."
"I do not like having to use VPLEX for synchronous replication, as opposed to having the store software built-in."
"More demonstration and training options are needed."
"I would like to be able to add more storage capacity to our 2 units down the road with out buying an additional seprate array."
"I'm waiting to see the Kubernetes package. I know they're releasing one, but I haven't seen it yet."
"More cloud integration."
"Their current replication is really just enough to "check the box" that they do replication. We'll probably implement Actifio, Zerto or EMC RecoverPoint for VMs for more critical data replication."
"I would love more insight into each virtual machine statistic."
"Detailed reporting is missing in the current version. We would like to see this feature added in a new release."
"Tintri need to be able to innovate faster but maintain the quality of their features."
"In sync and automated mirror between two Tintris is missing."
