Find out what your peers are saying about Dell Technologies, NetApp, Nasuni and others in NAS."The biggest benefit of the Hitachi platform is 100 percent storage uptime. It's also highly cost-effective."
"This is a good product with high capabilities and high reliability."
"I am happy about the storage system and availability."
"The product provides a good storage space."
"In terms of performance and ability, the product can stand up against its competitors since the solution offers two controller systems to users."
"The most valuable feature is that it has 'eight nines' availability, 99.999999 percent of the time. That is the main selling point."
"There are no significant challenges in terms of scalability, and it can accommodate larger storage capacities compared to other storage solutions."
"One of the features, for us, that is important is the monitoring platform integrated into the solution. It has all the elements that we need to see, at all times, to be sure the platform is working right."
"Mostly, their support is also great at reacting to issues but moreover, proactive to prevent issues."
"This product has good performance."
"The user interface should be made simpler because it is difficult to manage."
"The initial setup was difficult, as we don't have access to assistance. We had some issues around configuration. We needed to know things like what kind of rate is the best, or what kind of replication is ideal. We had to seek out answers online to get the information we needed."
"Hitachi should launch some small machines in Brazil. The smallest machine here in Brazil is VSP 350, which can be quite big for some of the customers. In China, Hitachi has small models of this equipment, but those models are not available in our region. Its pricing is a big issue for us. We are resellers, and we face some competition from other vendors. Hitachi doesn't always have a good position in terms of the price. Its user interface is also not as good as some of the other competitors, and it can be improved."
"The user experience is pretty bad in Hitachi. A lot of mandatory tasks take a long time to work through."
"One problem is that there are too many management tools for the F Series and for all the other Hitachi storage systems. There are four or five such solutions. Maybe these could be combined in the future."
"For mission critical issues the performance is low."
"In the next version I would like to see more intelligence."
"Its usability can be improved. It can have more management features. Its management tools lack features."
"The response time for read requests can be improved."
"InfiniBox, right now, offers only asynchronous replication between two storages."
