Cons
"The call charges and the management cost should be more friendly. They can also include monitoring and management.""The handling of data deletion and bulk servers setup could have been more straightforward and easier when dealing with data removal or setting up servers.

"Some anti-theft permissions do not transfer well to Qumulo.""In the next release, I would like to see the ability to have more control at a terminal level of the file system.""One aspect of Qumulo that I hoped to see improved was its software upgrade process, which did see significant progress during my usage. Initially, upgrading the software resulted in several minutes of system downtime. However, by the time I departed last summer, the downtime had reduced to mere ten seconds. Although I am unsure if Qumulo has yet achieved a completely outage-free upgrade, I simply performed the upgrades early in the morning before the marketing department began its workday, so any downtime was inconsequential.""The support for iMac and protocols should be improved, not all features are available.""In the future, I would like to see non-disruptive updates.""The solution could improve availability and improve data protection or data services such as compression of deduplication. In a future release, we'd like to have more cloud API integrations.""Qumulo should continue to expand automation and orchestration capabilities.""The price of the software is a bit expensive, so a reduction in cost would make it more competitive."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "It is cheaper than other solutions."
  • "The installation is expensive as they often come as a comprehensive package. The design is more integrated, and everything is bundled together as part of the solution. This is what contributes to the higher cost of their solutions because when you purchase one element, it often comes with additional features and components, and you end up paying for the entire package."

  • "The price of Qumulo is reasonable."
