Find out what your peers are saying about Dell Technologies, NetApp, Pure Storage and others in All-Flash Storage."Pure FlashArray X NVMe has low latency and high Ops. It is an evergreen model."
"Pure FlashArray X NVMe will quickly overcome all the hurdles you face, including network and latency issues."
"Technical support has been helpful and responsive."
"The system allows for seamless learning experiences, facilitating quick and easy cloning of environments within minutes."
"One, it's easy to use and understand. You don't have to be an engineer or an expert to use this storage solution. That's the bad part of Dell PowerMAX. You have to go through very expensive education for one or two weeks and pay ten thousand dollars just to be able to use the product. With Pure Storage, you have a half-day workshop, and you know everything you need to know."
"Overall stability is very good. It is a very stable solution."
"One of the best features is the support, which is excellent."
"The high availability of the product is the most valuable feature."
"The most valuable feature is test performance. It helps us store large amounts of data along with providing us faster retrieval of data."
"Provides fast access and is user-friendly."
"The solution is very reliable."
"It has good stability for our company."
"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 most valuable feature is that maintenance is free."
"The most valuable features of Pure Storage FlashArray are simplicity, ease of use, and dashboard management."
"The top-tier support and reliable storage are the most valuable features of this solution."
"The HTML5 UI is clean, easy to navigate, and very intuitive."
"Ease of use, time to market and scalability are all advantages. We can install new software and new applications in no time. That means we don't need buy a new shelf or new disks, just create a virtual machine and the system does everything behind the scenes."
"The down-to-the-second restore capability, native to the device is a valuable feature."
"We can offer a lot more storage to our end users."
"The Reduxio unit is superior in its ability to recover from any second."
"I like the Reduxio TimeOS, specifically. That feature's pretty good. I haven't seen it in any other product. They're the only ones who have it."
"Enables multiple hosts access to the virtual machines by providing for moving VMs due to maintenance or host failure."
"It needs integration with cloud vendors for remote storage, and to be able to restore a single machine from a specific volume."
"In terms of what needs improvement, the dashboard and management could be simplified."
"The tool's portfolio is minimal. It is expensive."
"The software layer has to improve."
"We need better data deduplication."
"I'd like to see the product implement active replication for vehicles such as VMware."
"I would like to see replication and DR features in the next release of this solution."
"Our use cases require more multi-tenant capabilities and additional VLAN interfaces for separating different customers. We currently use it to provide storage, sometimes shared storage, to different customers, but it is less flexible in comparison to a dedicated solution."
"It's more multi-tenant functionality in their Pure1 manage portal that is lacking."
"It took us a year to get it to stabilize and to get the best out of Pure."
"I would like to see data tiering to AWS."
"Some services could be inserted directly into the SAN, so Pure Storage could complete with the HyperFlex."
"Pure Storage FlashArray could improve some aspects. There are certain features that are good and there are some features that I see some issues with at the technical level. Those issues are related to replication. They need to resolve those issues, which I have already highlighted to the Pure team. Additionally, there are some issues in the active cluster that could improve."
"I would like a feature to integrate with external or cloud solutions. For example, if I want to use this storage for a backup from the cloud, I want to have integration with the cloud vendors, such as Microsoft, Oracles, or Amazon. It could be available as an API to allow seamless integration. Additionally, the solution could improve by having native integration with a cloud provider, such as VMware or Microsoft, this would reduce the need to use third-party solutions to complete the task."
"In the next release of the solution I would like to see Vormetric native block encryption."
"We do have an issue with the vCenter integration. Pure Storage says it has a lot of free space, but vCenter says its completely full. This is because their dedupes are saved as space, but Vcenter still detects the disk as completely full. So, we do have an issue with that."
"I would rate this solution an eight because we have had outages. The commit times went very high in the database. The whole array went down so our customers were down for around eight hours. This was a very big outage which could have been our fault because we didn't do the upgrade in time."
"It would be helpful to have the ability to recover virtual machines individually without having to restore the full LUN."
"The only critique that we have is it needs the ability to have local users added. You have to log in as one built-in admin account. You can't create your own."
"Maybe it should come in stainless steel, just like its DeLorean time machine predecessor."
"I would love an iPhone app to monitor my system from outside the firewall."
"There is only thing I can think of at the moment, that would be detailed printable reports."
"I would love to see deeper integration with VMware vSphere/vCenter. Right now, I can edit existing Reduxio datastore sizes in the vSphere web client. Provisioning new datastores that way would be nice."
"The user interface for the web console could be more user-friendly, while it is flashy, how to find functions is not necessarily obvious."
"t would be helpful to have a mobile app to monitor the storage array remotely."
