We performed a comparison between Reduxio [EOL] and SolidFire based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Dell Technologies, NetApp, Pure Storage and others in All-Flash Storage."Processes that used to take 40 minutes to two hours can be completed in five minutes."
"The predictive performance analytics is a very good feature, as our system is performing better than before."
"It does efficient work of storing data while still delivering the performance that you would normally expect from a higher priced solution."
"It has good stability for our company."
"The predictive performance analytics are good."
"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 security operating system is its most valuable feature because it's very simple, easy to use, and operate. You don't have to do very serious training to operate this equipment. It's user-friendly and pretty straightforward."
"It is easy to manage. You don't have to have the same people who used to manage the Dell EMC arrays because the solution is more intuitive."
"It has a very intuitive interface, it integrates more smoothly with our steps. With a different product from a different manufacturer, there are a lot more steps required to set up a volume, to make it available in VMware and to utilize it there."
"In the event of a deletion, corruption, or ransomware, I am never going to lose more than one second of changes."
"Any time I have needed anything, from a simple question to someone to be onsite, the customer service has been exceptional."
"Immediate data recovery: critical to business continuity in an age of unknown cyber threats."
"The down-to-the-second restore capability, native to the device is a valuable feature."
"The HTML5 UI is clean, easy to navigate, and very intuitive."
"By using the BackDating option we can restore volumes based on time. It also reduces volumes and maintenance time."
"I like the performance. I think it's what you call a hybrid SAN. It has solid state drives and, of course, regular optical drives, which would make performance a lot better, faster."
"The quality of service for minimum iOS, to maximum iOS in a multi-terminal environment is very powerful. The SQL service feature is the best part of SolidFire."
"The simplicity of it."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The provisioning process is efficient and doesn't demand higher latency, ensuring optimal data transfer performance which is particularly valuable for tasks like data mining, where quick results are essential."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is its scalability."
"Individual settings you can put on each individual volume, if you want to do that."
"Feature-wise, it is a good solution allowing users to monitor and simplify their networks. The solution also provides its users with flexibility by enabling them to utilize its extensions."
"SolidFire provides seamless performance across your storage system when you need to scale up. Other storage systems do not do that."
"We would like to see better troubleshooting aspects. It helps us if we can find out where the problem is. Right now, it's difficult. Sometimes it's difficult to pinpoint the issue. If they had more visibility and more troubleshooting feature built into the tool that would really help."
"I would like to see more detailed reporting on the data. However, it would be nice to know what are the exact VMs usage after deduplication and/or what that VMs actual latency and bandwidth is, outside of VMware."
"In some cases, we get into very in-depth conversations around movement of specific data and, what's more, chunk sizes. The documentation lacked any description or information on that."
"I can't see where they can make anything better, unless, of course, they lower their prices even more."
"They should work on their upgrades, they're not smooth."
"There are a lot of things to improve."
"I would like to migrate to the cloud in the future and know how that would actually work with this product."
"The price of this solution could be improved."
"Would love to have role-based access and an active directory integration."
"A centralized management would be nice, the ability to manage all cluster in one management portal."
"I am waiting for the vSphere Plug-In with individual VM level control."
"Integration is needed with other virtual vendors like VMware, Veeam, Hyper-V; that integration needs to be deeper, not just the way that they're using it now. I know that it's under development, but I think this is one of the disadvantages, for now, as a young company. They have to work with the other players on the market."
"I would love an iPhone app to monitor my system from outside the firewall."
"If Reduxio could manage multiple Reduxio systems within the same dashboard, or manage them as a single mode, it be very, very helpful for us."
"I am waiting on a feature set in the new version which should allow me to replicate between Reduxio iSCSI SANs for disaster recovery and also to 3rd party iSCSI SANs which are cheaper for an archive or DR target."
"Scalability is a little unusual. We came from the NetApp world where, if you needed more disk space, you just added more drives into the chassis, whereas with Reduxio, if you need more disk space, you have to buy a new chassis."
"It's a very good Windows-type solution. But we do a lot of legacy systems and the like. So it's getting that incorporated into it that would help us."
"I would like to see integration with the cloud, number one. Being able to spin SolidFire in the cloud."
"A little better segregation of the multi-tenancy. Right now, it's just VLAN-specific, that's all you can do."
"The user interface needs to be improved. Much of the client feedback involves comments such as "Oh, it's hard to navigate through.""
"The inclusion of more protocols and interfaces would make it easier to integrate with other products."
"We had some false positives, power supplies failing, and that's really been about it. We had a couple of glitches during some upgrade processes but nothing that was really concerning to us."
"You don't have business continuity with SolidFire. I think it could be a nice feature to have in the future."
"SolidFire could improve in terms of hardware robustness."
