"We haven't seen ROI yet."
"The integration capabilities could be improved."
"There are a lot of things to improve."
"We understand that they're thinking about it, but one of the things that would be nice is if they added some basic file-level capabilities to the platform. The idea is that they would run a basic NFS or CIF share from the controllers. FlashBlade is the powerhouse for File and Object storage, but if you don't need all that power, a lightweight file function would make FlashArrays more versatile."
"The price could be better."
"The speed has room for improvement."
"Unfortunately, this product doesn't support Flash Disks, but it's IOPS capacity is a great compromise."
"The technical support has been a let down for us. It's something the company has to work on. We haven't been satisfied with their level of service."

"The overall price of the solution should be reduced."

"The management is not a good feature in all of Huawei products. It's not easy or simple. Huawei has some problems with management and handling storage information from one interface."
"I'd like it to be more API-based."
"In the future, I would like to see multi-tenancy in Nutanix Acropolis AOS."
"I would like to see official compatibility with Red Hat in the future."
"Nutanix has a complex infrastructure, we have customers that consider VMware instead. Additionally, the performance could be better."
"The latency needs improvement"
"One of the improvements I would like to have is related to naming. It is getting confusing because they are using three-letter acronyms, which are more or less misleading. What I do not like is that they changed names and reused names. They had a meaning in the past and they are still using the names for something similar."
"The product requires a lot of resources."
"In Thailand, there really isn't a cloud version of Nutanx available to us."
