Find out what your peers are saying about Dell Technologies, NetApp, Pure Storage and others in All-Flash Storage."The all-flash disc is the most valuable feature of this solution."
"It's simple, powerful, and ready to use."
"As soon as we introduced our first Pure Storage FlashArray, the first benefit was at least twice the performance increase. Our production databases simply ran twice as fast with no other change."
"Support has been helpful."
"Performance is the most valuable feature."
"Pure Storage is extremely reliable — it's never failed."
"We have seen savings in our storage. The speed of deployment has gone from several days to a few minutes. This product has reduced that time into minutes, simplifying storage for us."
"It comes with a large number of features out-of-the-box, which makes it easy for us to see problems and manage capacity."
"It has good dedupe and compression. Also, the built-in data migration capabilities are pretty good, as is the federation. When we started migrating the workloads from different storage platforms, like NetApp and XtremeIO, it helped us in moving to that direction."
"The solution is stable; we've had no problems at all."
"The flexibility of this solution has been valuable for our business."
"We see very low latency with very high IOPS for mixed workloads."
"In terms of stability, it's good enough. It's okay."
"The setup is straightforward."
"The Dell support is helpful and the response is quick. The agents' knowledge is very good."
"It is just as stable as any other high-end solution."
"It's actually shaking hands with the workflow solutions much better than any other storage."
"I feel like there is too much automation; the user doesn't have any manual input."
"Data reduction is an area that needs improvement. There is a garbage collection service that runs but during that time, system utilization increases."
"I would love for them to have a hyper-converged solution."
"CIFS and SMB Shares cannot be mounted directly."
"The price should be lower."
"In terms of the future, I have been excited by some of the copy data management stuff that they're talking about building into the environment. There are feature sets where I've done a lot of automation work. So, I am always looking forward to extensions of their API. They're also talking about a phone home centralized analytics database being used as a centralized management console with a list of new cloud features, but this doesn't seem finalized."
"I can't see where they can make anything better, unless, of course, they lower their prices even more."
"Pure Storage support could be a little better."
"The interface could be improved. It should have an application point of view."
"The administration and support (on the way that they delivered) was a little bit slow."
"While the price is competitive, in the next release it would be better if they could reduce the fees."
"The price could be improved."
"From a performance point of view, it's getting a bit old."
"Dell could improve the upgrading process."
"The ease of use could be improved. It took me a while to learn it."
"Technical support should respond more quickly because the turnaround time is very high."
"It has to be flexible according to the customer's requirements. It has to be aligned with the customer business and the business environment."
