We performed a comparison between Fujitsu and Hitachi Virtual Storage Platform based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two NVMe All-Flash Storage Arrays solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We also like the compactness, the small footprint. It takes up very little space in a data center and uses little power."
"It is an SSD array that has awesome performance, low submillisecond latency, and does what it is supposed to do. It just works, which is difficult for things to do anymore."
"Very efficient storage"
"Simplicity and reliability are the most valuable feature of Pure Storage FlashArray."
"The solution has probably reduced my power use substantially."
"The performance of the storage is just unbelievable."
"We've had to use tech support on a number of occasions. They did everything remotely and talked us all the way through. They fixed the issue within 30 minutes. Every single time we contact them, they're perfect. I would give their technical support a ten out of ten."
"At this point, I don't know anything that they could provide in a better way."
"It stands out for its affordability and the ability to provide unified storage."
"It's a state of the art solution in storage systems. High-availability and performance are the strongest aspects of these machines."
"The efficiency ratio is just as high as advertised. It's very high relative to other storage solutions as well. The compression and deduplication capabilities are also very high."
"There are no significant challenges in terms of scalability, and it can accommodate larger storage capacities compared to other storage solutions."
"This is one of the most reliable and dependable products on the market."
"The valuable features for data management include deduplication and compression without performance impact, and the ability to virtualize old storage, making migration seamless."
"The high performance of flash storage is especially valuable to us."
"What I like best about Hitachi Virtual Storage Platform G Series is that it's a fast storage solution. It also has reliable models. The sales support is also good for this product. Even the pricing for it is good."
"The first thing that attracted this model to us was the non-disruptive migration. We had a very large database application that was on older gear and needed to be migrated to these arrays. We had experience with virtualizing behind an array and moving applications and data but this made it even better."
"It took us a year to get it to stabilize and to get the best out of Pure."
"The time-to-market could be better at times, but I think that's true for all vendors of hardware."
"The integration capabilities could be improved."
"We would like more extended historical data to help with some of the capacity planning. This is something that we are asking for all the time. E.g., what was the historical performance of this particular volume? So, we would like more historicals."
"In some cases, we get into very in-depth conversations around movement of specific data and, what's more, chunk sizes. The documentation lacked any description or information on that."
"I would rate this solution an eight. To make it a ten it would have to be a little cheaper."
"The primary drawback is the cost, which can be prohibitive for small configurations."
"The GUI could improve, it could be more intuitive. There is hidden functionality."
"The graphical interface is somewhat lacking, and it doesn't cover all the necessary tasks, often requiring users to resort to the command line for completion."
"We've only faced some minor issues. For example, the documentation of some features isn't as detailed as we would like."
"I would like the fan noise to be automatically adjusted based on the drive's current workload."
"Hitachi Virtual Storage Platform needs to improve its scalability options where there are a few shortcomings."
"The distributor needs more knowledgeable resources for technical support. It would be better to connect directly to the vendor in case of queries."
"I would like to see an audit account set up such that the user can log in, see the configuration, and see the logs, but they cannot make any changes."
"The installation procedure it a bit difficult, because it is a high-end solution. With this type of product, the original company is interested in doing the setup for customers in the area, but because of sanctions we were not able to get support in our area. We faced many issued trying to learn to run this product."
"In the next version I would like to see additional features like artificial intelligence and an increase in the amount of data it can store."
"For mission critical issues the performance is low."
