Find out what your peers are saying about MinIO, Red Hat, Dell Technologies and others in File and Object Storage."The tool has S3 capability. Its scalability is excellent. From a security and encryption perspective, the solution supports SSL encryption. It is a seamless solution offering data encryption, quality service, and security encryption."
"The most valuable features are its scalability and Amazon S3 compatibility because we can move back and forth with a hybrid cloud."
"It is very durable and that is particularly important."
"The cost was the main reason we chose to use this solution."
"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."
"Their REST API is wonderful, well-documented, and easy to use."
"The reliability is very good."
"On a scale of one to ten, where ten is the most comfortable pricing, I rate the solution a nine out of ten."
"It comes with a large number of features out-of-the-box, which makes it easy for us to see problems and manage capacity."
"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."
"It reduces space and the polar consumption. It also accelerates the application."
"The predictive performance analytics are good."
"As it is an S3 solution with the same protocol as the one we have with AWS, having better integration with AWS will be beneficial."
"Cloudian HyperStore needs to incorporate AI and predictive analysis. It would be helpful if the solution could analyze and predict how to manage data better. The end users should not have access to protected documents. They should be able to drop the documents. The capacity management dashboard can be better. We also want two-factor authentication using Google Authenticator or Microsoft Authenticator as MFA. Hence, the user would access the console not just by logging in with a password and username but with third-party applications as well."
"It is a cloud-based environment and at times, it is not very simple to use."
"Beyond a certain amount of petabytes, you have to have a separate system. Basically, it's not infinitely scalable."
"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 like to see data tiering to AWS."
"On a couple of occasions, the waiting time for an upgrade has been pretty substantial."
"Just some nit picky stuff, like allowing servers and volumes to be grouped. Therefore, it would easier to work with them in the GUI."
"If we suddenly dump large amounts of data onto the storage system, it takes a while to process it."
"The scalability of the solution is not as good as it probably could be."
"Had some issues with Purity not being entirely compatible with VMware ESXi."
