Find out in this report how the two All-Flash Storage solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The technical support is very good."
"This solution has improved our organization in the way that we used to see latency but now with this solution we don't. It also has good performance. Latencies have come down for our performance in the SQL databases. We can put a lot more in a lot less in terms of space savings. We also save data center space have good deduplication."
"The solution is easy to scale. I'm running two environments right now, so I need to scale. I'm running a part technology. I've got an A-side and a B-side."
"The ease of management is one of the most valuable features of this solution. I would have also said that it's pretty fast but now our SQL servers are starting to beat it up pretty bad."
"The initial setup was really straight forward."
"Simplicity and reliability are the most valuable feature of Pure Storage FlashArray."
"The most valuable feature is that maintenance is free."
"The most valuable features of Pure Storage FlashArray are simplicity, ease of use, and dashboard management."
"This is a very robust product and it offers everything that we are looking for."
"It is easy to use and understand. It is also very stable."
"It has a really powerful tool to measure data, how it is working, the performance, and if we have any bottlenecks."
"The reliability. We're able to replicate our array to our DR site with minimal work. It's just turn it on and we're ready to go. It reduces risk for the business."
"HPE 3PAR StoreServ is easy to use and has good performance."
"The most valuable feature of HPE 3PAR StoreServ is its online upgrades."
"Technical support for both 3PAR and Dell EMC in my country, Iran, is very difficult because we are under sanctions."
"The solution has helped our organization reduce time to deployment by about 60 to 70 percent, because I am able to spin up new systems within four to six hours, where it used to take me two to three days."
"The cloning is very fast... Another aspect I like is that it's very simple. It's an easy GUI to use."
"Its speed has been absolutely fantastic."
"Tintri VMstore is rock solid. We have not had a single issue with stability. It is also very low maintenance allowing us to concentrate on project work."
"Fast deployment for virtual machines"
"Simplicity of installation and management, high IOPS, management per VM, QoS, power and space saving."
"The most valuable aspect of the solution was how fast it worked on behalf of VDI desktops."
"Among the most valuable features are its granular replication, the ability to define asynchronous or synchronous replication, which gives us very definable RTOs and RPOs around that type of service, and granular quality-of-service configuration, which allows for cases where you've got multiple customers on a single Tintri, but you want to be able to offer strong quality-of-service metrics and KPIs."
"Support from our vendor and Tintri are brilliant. They have always answered all of our questions promptly."
"I would like some form of QoS implemented. As a service provider, it would be beneficial to have it."
"We would like to see more development on their Copy Automation Tool (CAT) for Oracle, as well as better integration for our customers running Oracle VM."
"We would like more extended historical data to help with some of the capacity planning. This is something that we are asking for all the time. E.g., what was the historical performance of this particular volume? So, we would like more historicals."
"The system has dual controllers but does not have a high level of resiliency built-in."
"The price of this solution could be improved."
"As long as they always improve on IOPS speed, that's all we're really looking for. The faster the storage can be the more we can do speed of application and speed of use."
"It was not proactive communication."
"The connectivity needs improvement. You do not have the possibility to have a file and block connectivity at the same time on the same machine. It has limited ability to do so."
"The solution lacks reliability."
"The tool needs improvement in the utilization report at the granular level."
"I would like to see improvement in the product's scalability. As a partner, I had serious problems because of the competition from Dell EMC and Pure."
"As long as they can keep the solution stable, it will be good. Stability is very important to us."
"The onsite techs have caused outages."
"I would like to have support for On-The-fly reallocation Data when using VVoL."
"HPE 3PAR StoreServ could have better integration into the cloud and converged infrastructure."
"I give it an eight because of the support, that I can't get support in my country. This is the worst part. Support cannot be sold until we are out of the sanctions."
"In sync and automated mirror between two Tintris is missing."
"Tintri's Cloud Connector currently only goes to AWS and IBM Cloud, and we don't use either because we're Microsoft Silver Partners. It would be great to get the Cloud Connector feature with Azure. If it's not already on Tintri's roadmap, that's something I'd like to see."
"We need more options to integrate with cloud storage options other than the current AWS and IBM that it currently supports."
"Their current replication is really just enough to "check the box" that they do replication. We'll probably implement Actifio, Zerto or EMC RecoverPoint for VMs for more critical data replication."
"The Tintri Analytics site is excellent for long-term trending, but more data would be great."
"What I feel would be nice, in terms of a wishlist, is scalability. Rather than replacing the whole appliance, I would like to be able to just add another unit and scale it like that."
"Detailed reporting is missing in the current version. We would like to see this feature added in a new release."
"I would love more insight into each virtual machine statistic."
