We performed a comparison between Hitachi Universal Storage VM [EOL] and Reduxio [EOL] 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."The technical support is very good."
"Pure Storage technology allowed us to automate tasks, reducing something which started as a 12-hour turnaround down to about 15 minutes."
"We like the speed. It's very low latency. In virtualization, you can mask lots of problems, and even in code you can mask lots of problems, with low latency. It's just pure speed and low latency."
"The solution has probably reduced my power use substantially."
"It has improved my organization because now have lower latency, we get fewer complaints from customers, and we see a constant response time."
"Pure gives us better compression, it's easier to manage, a lot less hands-on."
"On a scale of one to ten, where ten is the most comfortable pricing, I rate the solution a nine out of ten."
"The management is simple in Pure Storage FlashArray."
"The most valuable features are simplified provisioning and management, de-duplication, and built-in encryption."
"The support has been so responsive and great, they feel like one of our staff members."
"Enables multiple hosts access to the virtual machines by providing for moving VMs due to maintenance or host failure."
"We can offer a lot more storage to our end users."
"I like the Reduxio TimeOS, specifically. That feature's pretty good. I haven't seen it in any other product. They're the only ones who have it."
"The machine installed without difficulty."
"With only a few clicks, I can provision or modify storage."
"Most storage arrays when you buy them, they call it a "forklift upgrade," where a forklift comes in there and pulls out the old storage, and brings in a new storage. But with Reduxio, it can use all your old storage arrays, whether they're NetApp, or IBM, or EMC, or HPE, as targets for doing backups."
"The down-to-the-second restore capability, native to the device is a valuable feature."
"I would like to see more cloud integration."
"What it needs to do is work a little closer with solutions, like VMware, so it understands the particular workloads that are on it. Today, it does not understand the applications which are running against it."
"Pure Storage FlashArray could improve the recent file storage capabilities because it is lacking a lot of features."
"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."
"I want to learn more about command line usage which I have not explored much yet. However, there are many automated solutions for repetitive tasks. I would like to see additional features like performance monitoring, configuring of alerts, and the customization of alert thresholds in the next release."
"I would rate this solution an eight because we have had outages. The commit times went very high in the database. The whole array went down so our customers were down for around eight hours. This was a very big outage which could have been our fault because we didn't do the upgrade in time."
"The only time that we had problems with it was that there was a bug in the VVol implementation but, outside of that, it has been flawless."
"In the next release of this solution, we would like to see automated copy data management for SQL Server."
"The exterior display needs to be improved."
"I am waiting on a feature set in the new version which should allow me to replicate between Reduxio iSCSI SANs for disaster recovery and also to 3rd party iSCSI SANs which are cheaper for an archive or DR target."
"The only thing that I would point out would be the basic administration management of the machine. Everything has rights, meaning that there's either all control or no delegated control. So to sum that up, it would be a feature request for delegated management in the administrative console."
"Maybe it should come in stainless steel, just like its DeLorean time machine predecessor."
"If Reduxio could manage multiple Reduxio systems within the same dashboard, or manage them as a single mode, it be very, very helpful for us."
"It would be nice feature if the GUI had an option to export the current unit configuration to a file or an email recipient. In case of a disaster, this way it would be quicker to get a replacement unit up and running again."
"The only thing that I'd like to see, at some point in time, is having the storage array being able to detect a ransomware attack. When you get hit by a ransomware it rewrites every block in your guest's virtual machine. So there should be a way for them to be able to detect that: "Hey, this is unusual, to see every block of this guest being rewritten all at one time," and then flag that as potential malware or ransomware."
"The ability to look at data at a file level would be useful, as well as the ability recover at that level. Right now, you can only recover whole volumes."
"Scalability is a little unusual. We came from the NetApp world where, if you needed more disk space, you just added more drives into the chassis, whereas with Reduxio, if you need more disk space, you have to buy a new chassis."
