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."I like its speed. It has all the features that I need."
"The all-flash disc is the most valuable feature of this solution."
"The most valuable feature is how it simplifies the management of the SAN."
"The most valuable feature is its speed."
"It is fast and reliable. It works."
"NVMe data storage platform that's easy to set up and easy to use. It's stable, with a lower response time, and quick technical support."
"There was a dramatic improvement in operating costs just as a result of the environmentals and space, let alone the cost of the unit itself."
"The most valuable features of Pure Storage FlashArray are management and administration user-friendliness, provisioning, and performance."
"The solution is easily manageable."
"The platform’s most valuable feature is the ability to process huge amounts of data."
"The initial setup is easy compared to other vendors."
"IBM FlashSystem provides the same software on each box, including virtualized solutions."
"Its ease of use, performance, and hardware compression is very useful feature."
"The solution is more available for IOPS warehousing, resolving issues, and reporting than other products."
"There are many valuable features of IBM FlashSystem 9100 NVMele I have found to meet my needs. Specifically, the maintenance cycle is a standout feature of this solution. The main component of the IBM FlashSystem 9100 NVMe is the maintenance of the batteries, which have a predetermined and reliable four-year life cycle. This is in stark contrast to other solutions that may use spinning disks, which can fail unexpectedly, causing unwanted downtime and maintenance. Having a predictable maintenance cycle is a significant advantage and has made this solution a preferred choice for me."
"What I like about the product are its high availability, maximum efficiency in performance, and its ability to handle a high level of I/O operations."
"Good performance with a user-friendly UI."
"IBM FlashSystem 9100 NVMe is one of the leading storage systems in the world...I rate the solution's stability a ten out of ten."
"IBM FlashSystem 9100 NVMe is easy to use and comes with good performance."
"I would like to see support for NVMe, end-to-end."
"Part of our company works on Dell EMC because Pure Storage did not have synchronous applications when we were purchasing our products."
"Pure Storage FlashArray could improve in the area of cryptographic information in the consoles. The user-friendliness could improve. The Pure Storage FlashArray team should come and log into the system with their maintenance credentials and then pull out the information as evidence of cryptography."
"There are a lot of things to improve."
"On a couple of occasions, the waiting time for an upgrade has been pretty substantial."
"It is a bit expensive."
"I would like to get a weekly report of how our storage has been used, and if there is any storage sitting there not being used."
"CIFS and SMB Shares cannot be mounted directly."
"The support, visibility, and reporting features must be improved."
"The product’s ability to recover information and generate reports needs enhancement."
"The product is expensive. I rate the pricing a nine out of ten."
"The pricing should be more competitive."
"The efficacy of the GUI in IBM FlashSystem 9100 NVMe could be enhanced, and it would be beneficial to include a feature that can prevent ransomware attacks."
"There could be a possibility of not requiring to buy a new box while upgrading to a newer version."
"In the future, the limitation is upgrading the same storage by adding a shelf to the desk. There is a limitation in the backend connection between the storage and extended shelf."
"Deduplication and compression should be improved."
"I would like to see IBM products become more affordable because they can be quite expensive, which limits their accessibility to a broader customer base."
"The support could be better."
"Other vendors have included a block and file system. IBM doesn't include a file system. And yet, it's very necessary for all organizations' networks to have file systems. We have other systems for the file system, however, ideally, we would like to have one system with these features."
