Find out what your peers are saying about Dell Technologies, NetApp, Pure Storage and others in All-Flash Storage."One of the best features is the support, which is excellent."
"Overall stability is very good. It is a very stable solution."
"The solution is scalable."
"What I really like about this program, is that it is easy to use and easy to configurate."
"The latency is good."
"The system allows for seamless learning experiences, facilitating quick and easy cloning of environments within minutes."
"Pure has signature security technology, which cannot be deleted, even if you are an administrator."
"Pure FlashArray X NVMe helps to improve our processing speed. It is user-friendly and easy to use."
"Dell EMC Unity XT has good integration with VMware."
"Inline data reduction is pretty impressive."
"I like its performance and support."
"It has good performance."
"Provides good provisioning, allowing us to save space."
"After migration to Unity 300F, we were able to put more DBs on flash, reducing latency. The results were visible in the front-end systems, and all users noticed the improvement."
"The most valuable feature is that the solution is a hybrid system, so you can do both block and file storage."
"We can sleep at night because the support is great."
"It's actually shaking hands with the workflow solutions much better than any other storage."
"Right now, the box itself is just strictly working as a backend storage system. It would be fantastic if we could access it directly like a NAS device through network access or SIS drives. I think they have an interface, but I am not sure how good it is. If we could address a box directly on the network without having to go through a server, it would be great. The replication schemas could be improved. We are not using replication on the storage level right now. We use a different type of replication. If their replication would be as good as the one that we have, I would probably run the replication schema because it might be faster, but I don't know that for a fact. So, I cannot say that they have good replication. All I can say is that they need to inform us better."
"We need better data deduplication."
"The UI for this solution needs to be improved."
"I want to see Pure Storage not only be for fast storage, but I want to see it be for the entire data center."
"It is on the expensive side."
"Our use cases require more multi-tenant capabilities and additional VLAN interfaces for separating different customers. We currently use it to provide storage, sometimes shared storage, to different customers, but it is less flexible in comparison to a dedicated solution."
"It's more multi-tenant functionality in their Pure1 manage portal that is lacking."
"They could add more support for file storage and different types of storage."
"It could be a little easier to attach it to a network file system."
"There is room for improvement in manufacturing."
"We are running VMware, and with the VNXe it was possible to restore. We're using Veeam for VMware backups and with the predecessor, it was possible to mount a backup or restore a backup from a storage snapshot. With the Unity 300, this is not possible."
"It could go faster. Make it bigger, better, and faster at a lower price, and I am there."
"The reporting should be better. In other systems, you can create many different kinds of reports but this is not the case with Dell."
"A customer had to buy VMX because Unity didn't have WORM."
"The solution should include a free process in the HPE portal that uses serial numbers to verify that hardware is genuine."
"The uses of tools to communicate with EMC directly. With EMC, I am not able to connect and resolve issues without assistance, so they can't do unattended maintenance on devices, which would be a massive benefit if they could."
"It has to be flexible according to the customer's requirements. It has to be aligned with the customer business and the business environment."
