"It's very fast and very easy to use. It performs well and is both flexible and compatible. We like it because it's easy to use."
"The best feature is consistently lower latency, even when IOPS crank up to over 75K. The product maintains submillisecond response time, which is incredible."
"Cost, racial per terabyte, and speed is why we chose PureStorage. It was no brainer."
"The speed is the most valuable feature, along with the ease of getting it connected. We were able to get it online in less than a day."

"The solution is very easy to implement."
"The deduplication functionality provided by the solution is fairly good. The speed offered by the product is enough for our organization."

"Migrations are very easy and fast."
"I like the performance of the PowerStore. When you talk about PowerStore, it's mainly about flash systems and high-end IOPS. The 1000T is a midsize box, in terms of the way the vendor positions it, but it is more than enough for our needs."
"The most valuable features of Dell PowerStore are the support for NVMe and SCM, which provides end-to-end performance and high IOPS, minimizing latency. It is a full-fledged storage solution."

"The ransomware protection feature is housed in a separate unit, specifically addressing the top twenty most critical threats."
"The product's initial setup phase was good."
"A three wave application or multi wave application synchronization would be an improvement."
"Data reduction is an area that needs improvement. There is a garbage collection service that runs but during that time, system utilization increases."
"Just some nit picky stuff, like allowing servers and volumes to be grouped. Therefore, it would easier to work with them in the GUI."
"I had to contact customer support when a drive failed as I was doing a couple of OS upgrades."
"They are doing some stuff with containers and an object search. These could be improved, because containers is one of the main topics that we are talking with our customers about."

"The technical support is okay, but could be improved."
"The price could be better."
"The price is on the higher side."
"There is no Synchronize replication feature on the storage."
"Dell PowerStore is a good solution overall, but some models could support hypervisors better by allowing for more customization and flexibility for customer needs."
"We are happy with the service in general. The only thing would be the price of the platform."
"There are certain shortcomings with the technical support team of Dell PowerStore, where improvements are required."

"It's also only supported with a limited amount of switches."
"The setup process could be improved. We had some issues regarding configuration and the time it took to do things. It wasn't specifically the people we worked with, but more the process and how it's done. They can work on that."
"The configuration part of the product is an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"Improvements are needed in both partition recovery and scalability."
