"This product has good performance."
"Mostly, their support is also great at reacting to issues but moreover, proactive to prevent issues."
"Most of the problems that we had in the past with the performance in IOPS have disappeared. It has been a great improvement for our customers' services."
"One of the lesser sung advantages was when we started running our interface engine on Pure Storage. The ability to process messages and pass them through in our organization skyrocketed purely because of a disk that I owned which we were getting out of Pure Storage."
"The sales and executive support have been outstanding compared to the rest of the market... My upgrade paths have been simple on the Pure... It's a lot simpler to implement and a lot simpler to manage."
"Data reduction and compression. Sub millisecond latency."
"The best feature is consistently lower latency, even when IOPS crank up to over 75K. The product maintains submillisecond response time, which is incredible."
"FlashArray has many valuable features. It's very user-friendly and it has high availability, so there is comparatively less downtime. During maintenance, there is no shutdown procedure, so you can directly power off the Array and manage the shutdown process without any data loss, which is a unique feature. Managing replication and data migration is also very easy."
"The solution is very reliable."
"It has made working with storage as easy and simple as it should be."
"The response time for read requests can be improved."
"InfiniBox, right now, offers only asynchronous replication between two storages."
"Historical analytics would be useful. At the moment, they don't have any type of application built for historical analytics."
"I would like to see data tiering to AWS."
"I would like to get a weekly report of how our storage has been used, and if there is any storage sitting there not being used."
"From a scalability perspective, it is a very small storage solution, so it's not very expandable."
"CIFS and SMB Shares cannot be mounted directly."
"It's not so scalable. It's got moderate scaling capabilities right now. The clustering technology needs a bit of work, they need to improve that."
"The solution could improve by having a multi-tenant feature."
"The one major gripe I have is that there is no snapshotting enabled by default on the SAN."
