Find out what your peers are saying about Dell Technologies, NetApp, Pure Storage and others in All-Flash Storage."Support has been helpful."
"It is all-flash. This makes it a lot faster than the rest of what we have, as it is able to drive high I/O loads, which is big for us."
"The deduplication in the array combined with its snap technologies allows the product to be remotely/manually controlled or scheduled."
"The product cheaper compared to other solutions concerning the technology that they are using."
"It helps to simplify storage. For most of our customers, when they move to Pure Storage, storage becomes an afterthought."
"Pure gives us better compression, it's easier to manage, a lot less hands-on."
"Scalability is one of the best features. You can quickly add more. You can swap out the drives with larger sizes, you can add more shelves. All of that is perfect - the whole concept of keeping it modular..."
"We put a fair amount of stress on it because we run sequel workloads and we run web applications where the same web files are hit over and over. We have had almost zero stability issues with that SAN, that has been really great for us."
"The most important thing that we had found when we purchased this product around six months back was its 100% availability and uptime."
"The product is stable."
"The high availability was most valuable because they come with what's called 100% data availability. With special terms, they license and guarantee 100% data availability. That was probably one of the key features or components that HPE was offering with that model."
"HPE provides good support through their customer service."
"The most valuable feature of HP Primera is that you don't have to buy an additional product for application replication. It's a stable product. The tool is scalable. I recommend HPE Primera because it's one of HP's most stable product."
"It is stable and reliable."
"It is a stable and scalable solution with quick and efficient storage capability."
"One of the most valuable features is the ease of deployment."
"It's actually shaking hands with the workflow solutions much better than any other storage."
"They could improve the price."
"We would like to see more cloud support, which we know is coming, although it's not out yet. It's going to be released in the next versions. That would be the biggest win, if additional cloud support is built into the array."
"It was a little costly. The price was ultimately higher than both of the other solutions that we evaluated. I'd say that's the only downside."
"A three wave application or multi wave application synchronization would be an improvement."
"I would like the ability to swap out the network adapters into it. So, without taking out the whole controller, I would like to be able to swap adapters. This would make things easier."
"They should work on their upgrades, they're not smooth."
"It is a bit expensive."
"The product should improve its response time. I have also encountered issues with its configuration."
"They could work to make scalability easier."
"Some application solutions can be more acceptable on the HPE Primera site."
"The price of the product is an area of concern. From an improvement perspective, the solution should be made more affordable in terms of price."
"HPE Primera's pricing model is an area of concern and can be considered for improvement."
"The reporting console can be improved with out of the box reports."
"The solution could improve by having seamless migration from other storage systems. The process should be made easier."
"One of the drawbacks of the model we purchased is that it is not running NVMe drives. Even though they say that it is NVMe-ready, it is still on the SSD drives. The model that we purchased has only eight hard drives, and only the ones on the top could work on NVMe. The rest of them are still on the SSD. Its competitors, such as EMC and Pure Storage, are moving or have already moved to NVMe. HPE should improve this solution for NVMe. HPE should also improve IOs in this solution. IOs in HPE are weaker than Hitachi and Pure Storage."
"Price is always important in Turkey, so HPE could lower the price to keep it competitive. It's not as competitive as other solutions in this market."
"It has to be flexible according to the customer's requirements. It has to be aligned with the customer business and the business environment."
