"The high availability of the product is the most valuable feature."
"The solution is scalable."
"Offers excellent features like efficient data reduction, a reliable SafeMode, and a great support model for continuous assistance and updates."
"Pure FlashArray X NVMe will quickly overcome all the hurdles you face, including network and latency issues."
"The valuable features include encryption of data, hybrid performance, firmware updates, and overall simplicity."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"Deduplication and compression."
"They have really thought through their solution. They've covered everything."
"It's very easy to set up. It's very stable, and it has got great deduplication, especially for hypervisor users."
"The scalability is straightforward."
"It is easy to use. Not too complicated."
"It's very stable and fast, and I am very happy with the deduplication. It saves a lot of space, which is great."
"This has been one of the most reliable storage systems that I have ever used."
"The solution is useful for machine learning and scientific applications, including computer simulations."
"There is room for improvement in catering to midrange storage needs, especially for customers seeking Enterprise-class features."
"We've seen that when we create a POD in synchronous mode, it increases the latency."
"The UI for this solution needs to be improved."
"I would like to see replication and DR features in the next release of this solution."
"Efficiency improvements would always be welcome, but I'm not sure if they could get more efficient."
"If the customer only needs 500 terabytes and doesn't care how much data they'll put in the server, IBM is cheaper than Pure."
"They could add more support for file storage and different types of storage."
"In the next release, I would like to see real-time analytics for further insight into consumption models."
"When sizing the array based on requirements the option to add more network cards for throughput would be something to help clients."
"I'd also like to see them incorporate tools that let me get granular with the VMs. I want to see an individual VM, I want to Snapshot and recover an individual VM."
"They keep talking about doing one-to-many replication. This is what we'd like to see, just to help with data replication."
"I would like to see greater integration with Microsoft's Hyper-V platform."
"There should be faster interfaces."
"We would like there to be more enhanced features."
"Its pricing could be better. It's expensive."
"I want to see the full integration with OneView. I know they have started it, but I haven't had a chance to look at and evaluate it."
"The read/write ratio is an area in the solution with some flaws and needs improvement."
"The write performance could be improved because it is less than half of the read performance."
