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."What I like most about this solution, is the speed, resiliency and scalability."
"The most valuable features are the replication of data and the continuous snapshot that we can take from the disc."
"Non-disruptive upgrades: You can upgrade at anytime without worry."
"We consume less physical storage because of the solution’s deduplication and compression."
"They are quite responsive and our local team was pretty good."
"The speed is one of the most valuable features of Pure Storage FlashArray."
"Simplicity and reliability are the most valuable feature of Pure Storage FlashArray."
"The best feature is consistently lower latency, even when IOPS crank up to over 75K. The product maintains submillisecond response time, which is incredible."
"In the event of a deletion, corruption, or ransomware, I am never going to lose more than one second of changes."
"The ability to target existing remote storage with NoRestore is going to allow us to leverage existing storage without an increased financial investment."
"The machine has been easy to use."
"The down-to-the-second restore capability, native to the device is a valuable feature."
"In terms of ease of use, the GUI is quite amazing and seems to be taken from a computer game. Literally within 30 minutes, we had learned almost everything there is on the management UI and started managing the device."
"We love the fact that we do not have to worry about ransomware and can rollback to any point in time."
"It's very intuitive, has a very modern interface. Instead of making the user set up a million parameters for things that the system knows better anyway, they put all the intelligence in the product and made the controls much easier."
"Takes advantage of deduplication and compression through as much of the content of VMs which are similar."
"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."
"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."
"It is very easy to scale up SolidFire."
"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 dashboard is such that you don't need to be a storage expert to administer it."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"SolidFire provides seamless performance across your storage system when you need to scale up. Other storage systems do not do that."
"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."
"I would like to have support available in Spanish."
"Storage. There could be better storage."
"I would like to see more cloud integration."
"We understand that they're thinking about it, but one of the things that would be nice is if they added some basic file-level capabilities to the platform. The idea is that they would run a basic NFS or CIF share from the controllers. FlashBlade is the powerhouse for File and Object storage, but if you don't need all that power, a lightweight file function would make FlashArrays more versatile."
"The file functionality could be better."
"I can't see where they can make anything better, unless, of course, they lower their prices even more."
"On a couple of occasions, the waiting time for an upgrade has been pretty substantial."
"I would like to see data tiering to AWS."
"I am waiting for the vSphere Plug-In with individual VM level control."
"A centralized management would be nice, the ability to manage all cluster in one management portal."
"The only thing that I would point out would be the basic administration management of the machine. Everything has rights, meaning that there's either all control or no delegated control. So to sum that up, it would be a feature request for delegated management in the administrative console."
"We had a single failure of the device but believe that it was tied to the server losing contact with our NTP server due to DNS issues. As Reduxio is very time-dependent, losing sync made the entire array unstable."
"It would be helpful to have the ability to recover virtual machines individually without having to restore the full LUN."
"It would be nice feature if the GUI had an option to export the current unit configuration to a file or an email recipient. In case of a disaster, this way it would be quicker to get a replacement unit up and running again."
"The ability to look at data at a file level would be useful, as well as the ability recover at that level. Right now, you can only recover whole volumes."
"Needs some hooks into cloud storage for backup. Also they should update the system to use additional secondary storage as a resource."
"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."
"A little better segregation of the multi-tenancy. Right now, it's just VLAN-specific, that's all you can do."
"For example, the ease of use with the reporting. Right now it's not impossible, but you have to know Sequel. It's a little time consuming to get those customized reports in there."
"One of the challenges we faced while using SolidFire was that the product line that we were using in our company was discontinued."
"The inclusion of more protocols and interfaces would make it easier to integrate with other products."
"You don't have business continuity with SolidFire. I think it could be a nice feature to have in the future."
"They could make the mNode more user-friendly. Now you need to configure and add nodes by CLI and it’s not really easy to manage. If they created a web interface to do the management of the mNode, that would be great!."
"I think there is room for improvement needed with its storage capability. A bigger node is needed."
