We performed a comparison between Dell XtremIO and Oracle FS1 Flash Storage System based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Dell Technologies, NetApp, Pure Storage and others in All-Flash Storage."With Pure Storage, we don't see any latency or IOPS. It has been a very seamless integration."
"The speed is the most valuable feature of this solution."
"Pure Storage FlashArray's overall speed is its most valuable feature."
"The most valuable feature is replication."
"The most valuable feature is that maintenance is free."
"It is all-flash. This makes it a lot faster than the rest of what we have, as it is able to drive high I/O loads, which is big for us."
"Their support system has insight into errors on our SAN fabric that we can't see. They've brought attention to and raised awareness for us about things that we couldn't see, when we were experiencing problems."
"The initial setup is very straightforward. You simply plug it in and turn it on."
"It was very easy and straightforward to setup."
"Dell XtremIO is good for databases and huge workloads."
"The feature I like most about Dell Xtremio is its hardware quality compared to other vendors. It's clear they're continuously improving their research and development."
"The solution's most valuable features are the inline data reduction and deduplication."
"Speed and reliability:"
"The most valuable feature of Dell EMC XtremIO is the data protection (DP) group, it is one of the most advanced features in these types of arrays. The dedupe and compression that this array provides both do a superb job."
"Linear performance – The XtremIO wasn’t the fastest in all tests against other all flash arrays, but even with a massive workload, the response time and user experience were absolutely predictable with no sharp drop-offs."
"I like the deduplication and auto-tiering features."
"It's actually shaking hands with the workflow solutions much better than any other storage."
"Going forward, don't complicate things for the customers."
"If they could make it cheaper, that would be something."
"I think replication is one area that still needs improvement. Earlier, Pure Storage FlashArray only had IP-based replication. There was no API-based replication, but they have enhanced the feature now. However, they need to work on API replication for C-type of arrays."
"I would like the ability to swap out the network adapters into it. So, without taking out the whole controller, I would like to be able to swap adapters. This would make things easier."
"The scalability of the solution is not as good as it probably could be."
"As long as they always improve on IOPS speed, that's all we're really looking for. The faster the storage can be the more we can do speed of application and speed of use."
"The system has dual controllers but does not have a high level of resiliency built-in."
"Self-backup is the only feature lacking in this solution."
"They can improve the product by providing an HTML5-based interface instead of the Java GUI based application."
"If you are looking at flash storage solutions, XtremIO doesn't offer any unique features. Most of my customers are migrating their workload from XtremIO to other formats because of this."
"The product could be improved by reducing the pricing and having better organization in their technical support team."
"One thing that should be improved is the reporting and monitoring tools. It should use real time monitoring for storage, IOPS, latency, etc."
"In the next release, the solution could have better integration and if we can host assets on the cloud, such as NetApp has the NetApp volumes, which we can host on the cloud directly called NetApp CVO (cloud volume ONTAP). Dell EMC should come up with something purely on the cloud rather than manage services."
"I would like to see the ease of deployment and built-in Metro clustering."
"I would like to see more scalability."
"XtremIO needs to be lower priced. It also needs better endpoints and scalability."
"It has to be flexible according to the customer's requirements. It has to be aligned with the customer business and the business environment."
