We performed a comparison between Hitachi Universal Storage VM [EOL] and Hitachi Virtual Storage Platform based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Hitachi Vantara, IBM, Dell Technologies and others in Frame-Based Disk Arrays."The best feature is consistently lower latency, even when IOPS crank up to over 75K. The product maintains submillisecond response time, which is incredible."
"It does efficient work of storing data while still delivering the performance that you would normally expect from a higher priced solution."
"I never have to worry about its performance or if it is the root cause of an issue."
"It simplifies the overall management. We don't have to worry about storage anymore."
"Having an intuitive user interface to get things running is great."
"Scalability is one of the best features. You can quickly add more. You can swap out the drives with larger sizes, you can add more shelves. All of that is perfect - the whole concept of keeping it modular..."
"The most valuable feature of Pure Storage FlashArray is the complete set of functions it provides."
"The stability is perfect. The reliability is 100% and the latency is always lower than 1 millisecond."
"The most valuable features are simplified provisioning and management, de-duplication, and built-in encryption."
"Storage is the most valuable feature."
"I am happy about the storage system and availability."
"The product offers high stability."
"Data optimization, compression, and deduplication are the most important features for us."
"The active-active option seemed to be working well and overall, it was a solid product."
"The deduplication is useful for us because we don't have that much money for our lab infrastructure. Deduplication means we have more storage available. And the IOPS are really fast."
"It is the most stable high-end solution in this area."
"Its scalability and performance are the most valuable. It is quite scalable and has a huge capacity."
"When we were doing some tests, we found that there was an I/O freeze when they were switching the controller."
"Its price needs improvement. Its price is almost double than any other flash storage solution."
"It would be good to have metrics of the box's performance so we can see what it delivers, but currently, I can't see what it's actually doing."
"The number of Filesystems is limited, which it is not on the EMC VNX."
"We would like to integrate it more with our backup solutions."
"The setup needs to be improved the most. They can do a little more with the user interface, but the setup is what I would like to see made a bit easier."
"The price of Pure Storage FlashArray could be better."
"Pure Storage FlashArray could improve the recent file storage capabilities because it is lacking a lot of features."
"The exterior display needs to be improved."
"The installation procedure it a bit difficult, because it is a high-end solution. With this type of product, the original company is interested in doing the setup for customers in the area, but because of sanctions we were not able to get support in our area. We faced many issued trying to learn to run this product."
"One improvement I am hoping for in the next release is unified storage."
"In terms of new features, I would be interested to see deduplication added in their next release."
"The deployment could be a bit easier, because it's a bit tricky"
"The solution is stable. However, there have been some software crashes where we had to restart the system. They could improve the hardware to prevent this type of issue."
"In the next version I would like to see additional features like artificial intelligence and an increase in the amount of data it can store."
"The controllers in the product do not provide options for scalability."
"The complex setup, ease of use, and snapshot operations of this product need to be improved."
