We performed a comparison between Hitachi Universal Storage VM [EOL] and Tintri VMstore 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."Having fast storage allows actual servers to perform in high capacity so we don't have slowdowns on our applications."
"FlashArray has many valuable features. It's very user-friendly and it has high availability, so there is comparatively less downtime. During maintenance, there is no shutdown procedure, so you can directly power off the Array and manage the shutdown process without any data loss, which is a unique feature. Managing replication and data migration is also very easy."
"The scalability is good."
"I find two features of Pure Storage most valuable. The first is the "safe mode" function, and the second is its simplicity."
"The connections are a lot faster than what we had in the past. One InfiniBand does what we did on all of our Fibre Channels."
"We consume less physical storage because of the solution’s deduplication and compression."
"I never have to worry about its performance or if it is the root cause of an issue."
"Pure is simple to set up and manage on a day-to-day basis."
"The most valuable features are simplified provisioning and management, de-duplication, and built-in encryption."
"Its speed has been absolutely fantastic."
"The cloning is very fast... Another aspect I like is that it's very simple. It's an easy GUI to use."
"It is fast and reliable. There hasn’t been a single failure in three years of use."
"We also find the detail per-vm reporting at the ability to see reports from the hypervisor straight back to the storage useful."
"I like Tintri's Global Admin feature and the solution's performance. It's incredibly fast storage, which was a significant upgrade for us when we deployed it seven years ago. The Tintri snapshots are brilliant and incredibly reliable."
"Simplicity of installation and management, high IOPS, management per VM, QoS, power and space saving."
"It’s very good at IOPS."
"We have been able to scale up to ten VM storages and 500 VMs through a single pane of glass."
"It was not proactive communication."
"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'd like to see a move towards individual VMs for what the performance of each VM is in a VD infrastructure. I can see the overall volume, but I would love to see things in a more granular level on the VM side."
"The price of the solution can improve."
"The support for NFS protocols right out-of-the-box need improvement. I'm used to other storage vendors who have NFS support right out-of-the-box, and Pure Storage doesn't seem to have anything."
"I would like to see data tiering to AWS."
"We haven't seen ROI."
"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."
"The exterior display needs to be improved."
"I would love more insight into each virtual machine statistic."
"Tintri need to be able to innovate faster but maintain the quality of their features."
"It would be beneficial if Tintri could identify issues through telemetry and notify us before we need to contact them."
"On the software side, I suggest adding integration with backups software like CommVault Simpana or Veeam where these products can integrate with the array and trigger things like snapshots for backup, etc."
"The Tintri Analytics site is excellent for long-term trending, but more data would be great."
"Detailed reporting is missing in the current version. We would like to see this feature added in a new release."
"Technical support is an area where we had several issues, and it was hard to get some support in a specific case we had. I'm not very satisfied with them."
"I would like it to have the ability to store data other than virtual machines. At the moment, you can only connect VMs to it, and that’s a bit disappointing."
