Cloud storage has simplified SAN and NAS management and now optimizes costs and provisioning
The best features of Everpure Cloud include a consumption-based model, where there is no need for on-premises storage space. I only pay for the size I use, and there are continuous moderation sessions, so hardware upgrades and software enhancements are not required. All of these are managed in the back end, suggesting necessary updates. The consumption-based model benefits my team and organization by allowing us to easily buy the required space and sizes for cloud-based storage. I do not need to add any nodes or controllers to the array side, which helps us reduce costs. Additionally, with this moderation session approach, I might use a storage array for three to five years before needing to buy something else, which I can avoid with cloud storage. The main advantage of the features is that I can buy and pay for whatever model I choose, making budgeting easy and cost-efficient. Everpure Cloud positively impacts my organization by enabling me to provision LUNs and manage everything from the cloud side conveniently. If any hardware issues arise, I need to contact the data center team; however, having everything on a single platform allows me to resolve issues easily and minimizes downtime.

A sustainable product that has ultra-low latency and reliable security features
Initially, we had some challenges with massive amounts of customer data. We have an airport segment where the passenger data are required, and it’s huge data. We needed a system that could store bulk data with low latency and provide a good customer experience. The solution is very famous. Ultra latency provides miraculous performance and productivity. It also enables advanced virtualization for good scalability. Anyone can opt to use the product. Overall, I rate the tool an eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Everpure Cloud is cost-effective, and in our comparisons with the Dell PowerMax solution we were able to negotiate better commercial terms while achieving performance that is similar and close to the same performance we get on PowerMax."
"Everpure Cloud positively impacts my organization by enabling me to provision LUNs and manage everything from the cloud side conveniently, and having everything on a single platform allows me to resolve issues easily and minimizes downtime."
"The virtualization layer has been great; we have SAN Volume Controller, and below that we can use any kind of storage, which is perfect for us because if we run out of storage, we can add more storage from any of our vendors."
"The most valuable features of IBM SAN Volume Control are the copy services, performance metrics, and analysis. Additionally, they have upgraded and introduced visual volumes."
"With SVC it is very easy to manage and to use for migration, meaning that when we want to move or to keep control of the volume or update a server database, it is very easy. That's why we use it."
"The virtualization layer has been great."
"The solution is easy to use, easily configurable, and easy to upgrade, manipulate, and add new storage."
"The product has an ultra-low latency."
 

Cons

"I would like to see improved unified storage capabilities. Although they call it unified storage, Everpure Cloud is lagging behind for file workloads."
"IBM SAN Volume Control could improve by better integrations with other vendor systems. IBM SAN Volume Control can store the environment and are able to integrate with Veeam, but I don't know if they can integrate as well with SVC or other vendors' systems."
"IBM support can be very slow. Sometimes they take a lot of time to solve a problem; this is an issue with IBM."
"Patch management and upgrades must be made easier."
"IBM support can be very slow."
"They just need to put in the snap volume because now they use what is called a flash copy. This means that you have to take all the volume instead of NetApp which uses their snapshot."
"I would like to see the usage of virtualized storage boxes improved. I'd like to see this feature fixed, especially for SVC controller, and to be able to hold more storage."
