"This product has good performance."
"It's just very easy for general block storage."
"Technical support has been amazing."
"FlashArray has many valuable features. It's very user-friendly and it has high availability, so there is comparatively less downtime. During maintenance, there is no shutdown procedure, so you can directly power off the Array and manage the shutdown process without any data loss, which is a unique feature. Managing replication and data migration is also very easy."
"Pure Storage is extremely reliable — it's never failed."
"At this point, I don't know anything that they could provide in a better way."
"The all-flash disc is the most valuable feature of this solution."
"The most valuable features are the replication of data and the continuous snapshot that we can take from the disc."
"Technical support is good."
"The response time for read requests can be improved."
"Beyond a certain amount of petabytes, you have to have a separate system. Basically, it's not infinitely scalable."
"We would like to be able to connect to data tape for backup, specifically to the LTO backups."
"Pure Storage FlashArray could improve by being more secure."
"It is not possible to create a cluster on top of multiple arrays."
"Pure Storage support could be a little better."
"FlashArray's capacity for forecasting should be improved because it needs to be a bit more current. I think it's bundled with the deduplication and other compression factors. We need more user interfaces for forecasting in this software and more interfaces need to be integrated with this array management tool."
"Its price could be cheaper. It is not the cheapest one out there, but I'm not directly involved in the figures and negotiations."
"I feel like there is too much automation; the user doesn't have any manual input."
