"The high availability of the product is the most valuable feature."
"The latency is good."
"It has benefited my organization because it has reduced time to insights."
"The performance is very good."
"Hitachi Virtual Storage Platform 5000 Series exhibits good performance and has good IOPS: 300 IOPS. The technical support for this product is also good."
"Its scalability and performance are the most valuable. It is quite scalable and has a huge capacity."
"It is the most stable high-end solution in this area."
"The product has great data storage performance with a 100% data security and availability guarantee."
"Overall, the solution is strong, easy and fast."
"The most valuable feature is that you can use it with all deployment models."
"The product's reliability has been crucial for our company's operations."
"This is an all-flash storage array. It is the best solution for large batch processing. There are some customer databases that have tens of millions of records in one large database. That's where VIOLIN performs the best. VIOLIN stands out for million of IOPS with ultra-low latency. VIOLIN can provide about two million IOPS in a 3U unit. We have a latency of less than one millisecond."
"In terms of what needs improvement, the dashboard and management could be simplified."
"The software layer has to improve."
"We would like to see more visibility into garbage collection and CPU performance in the GUI."
"In the next release, I would like to see real-time analytics for further insight into consumption models."
"We have run into a couple of instances recently where we are running out of space. So we have had to buy some more packs for it and they have deployed fine and it has increased smoothly."
"We would like to see VNC integration or be able to use Pure Storage with VNC."
"The tool's portfolio is minimal. It is expensive."
"In the future, I would like to see integration with enterprise backup systems."
"For mission critical issues the performance is low."
"The initial deployment was somewhat complex when it came to the installation because of the network connectivity. It was more difficult, in this specific case, than with other platforms."
"Hitachi should offer a distinct overview of the various storage choices."
"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 complex setup phase is an area where improvements are needed."
"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."
"The complex setup, ease of use, and snapshot operations of this product need to be improved."
"One improvement I am hoping for in the next release is unified storage."
"Its overall usability can be improved. It takes some time to know small things here and there to make sure it is working properly."
