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."The most valuable features are the replication of data and the continuous snapshot that we can take from the disc."
"This solution has helped my organization by cutting down on provisioning time. I used to have to provision a VM and it would take ten minutes. Now, it takes thirty seconds."
"It simplifies storage."
"Before we used Pure Storage it took 93 days of employees who run the database to back up and restore databases. The scale of deployment basically went from several days to a few minutes."
"The ease of use. That's what our customers love. They say it's very easy, they don't need special training, they don't need to call us or any other company or integrator to help them do their job. That's the main reason they purchase Pure."
"The stability and performance are the best things about the solution."
"The predictive performance analytics are good."
"The speed is one of the most valuable features of Pure Storage FlashArray."
"I have an every second undo button for all my applications. I call Reduxio "the ransomware killer"."
"One of the beautiful parts about it is the whole user interface. It's almost too simple. As an IT professional, you think, "Where are the works, how am I assured that this is actually protecting my data?" The ease of use in terms of deployment, and also the metrics that it feeds back to you are also among the many attractive features of the whole platform."
"The BackDating feature which allows us to go back to any point in the past at one second granularity, is an amazing feature and allows us to recover from any mishap to our data – whether it's a malware attack, an application error or a human error. We have never seen this capability in any other storage product."
"By using the BackDating option we can restore volumes based on time. It also reduces volumes and maintenance time."
"In the event of a deletion, corruption, or ransomware, I am never going to lose more than one second of changes."
"Immediate data recovery: critical to business continuity in an age of unknown cyber threats."
"The unit has been running at 100% without an issue."
"The pre-processing dedupe engine they have instead of post-processing."
"We can add a node, we add compute, we add storage, and we've had really good luck with 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."
"Greater IOPS, speed, it's all-flash. So seeing that everything is going to all-flash, all SSDs, SolidFire fits right in there with the emerging trend in IT."
"SolidFire has seamless performance for the nodes and extensions. I also like the tool’s scalability. The product’s performance does not get affected when we scale either up or down. This is not the case with other products."
"The scalability and being able to implement it quickly."
"Being able to provide quality of service as promised."
"The system efficiency is excellent overall."
"It is very easy to scale up SolidFire."
"I had to contact customer support when a drive failed as I was doing a couple of OS upgrades."
"I would like to have support available in Spanish."
"There are many features which need to be added, particularly on the replication side."
"Part of our company works on Dell EMC because Pure Storage did not have synchronous applications when we were purchasing our products."
"A minor issue that comes to mind is that, every once in a while, a hard drive will go bad."
"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."
"Historical analytics would be useful. At the moment, they don't have any type of application built for historical analytics."
"The product should improve its response time. I have also encountered issues with its configuration."
"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."
"It would be helpful to have the ability to recover virtual machines individually without having to restore the full LUN."
"I am waiting for the vSphere Plug-In with individual VM level control."
"Scalability. Reduxio has only one product, they don’t have an option, for now, to expand the storage product."
"There is only thing I can think of at the moment, that would be detailed printable reports."
"t would be helpful to have a mobile app to monitor the storage array remotely."
"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."
"A centralized management would be nice, the ability to manage all cluster in one management portal."
"It would be good to provide administrative access at the root level to be able to do things with the system, if need be."
"There is room for improvement with a focus on creating a centralized storage system, functioning similar to AWS."
"The user interface needs to be improved. Much of the client feedback involves comments such as "Oh, it's hard to navigate through.""
"Though it is a stable solution, its users may face some security issues at times...The security provided by the solution is one area that can be improved."
"SolidFire could improve in terms of hardware robustness."
"We have a large fiber channel infrastructure, and that's one area that we haven't seen implemented in SolidFire, its more iSCSI."
"This solution would be improved if it were made to be more compatible with other products."
"The tool should improve its initial cost which is expensive compared to other products."
