Find out what your peers are saying about Hitachi Vantara, IBM, Dell Technologies and others in Frame-Based Disk Arrays."The valuable features for data management include deduplication and compression without performance impact, and the ability to virtualize old storage, making migration seamless."
"Its resilience is the most valuable."
"It's a state of the art solution in storage systems. High-availability and performance are the strongest aspects of these machines."
"The most valuable features in Hitachi Virtual Storage Platform F Series are Shadowimage, easy to manage equipment, and upgrading the firewire is very simple."
"The deduplication is useful for us because we don't have that much money for our lab infrastructure. Deduplication means we have more storage available. And the IOPS are really fast."
"Data optimization, compression, and deduplication are the most important features for us."
"The most valuable features are external storage virtualization and the 100 percent data guaranteed availability."
"The most valuable feature is that you can use it with all deployment models."
"Huawei has a lot of penetration into accounts in Islamabad and the whole region, especially in Islamabad, because this is where our capital is, this is where most of the government offices are."
"This product should be easier to install and set up."
"One problem is that there are too many management tools for the F Series and for all the other Hitachi storage systems. There are four or five such solutions. Maybe these could be combined in the future."
"If they had a certain approach to layered storage, it would be better. For example, adaption to the browser, or having a centralized console."
"For the support windows to work, maybe they have to upgrade the firmware of the VSP. They changed the hardware or the disk. I don't know if it was the port blade they changed or a VM for a memory cache. Also, replacing the old target with the processor target would be fine. The old equipment is very easy to manage, and I don't have any bad commentary."
"The distributor needs more knowledgeable resources for technical support. It would be better to connect directly to the vendor in case of queries."
"There is a drawback related to Hitachi's configuration flexibility. The Hitachi storage platform solution is not flexible. That means that both the Hitachi and the partner presale guys have to do a lot of work to design a solution."
"Hitachi Virtual Storage Platform needs to improve its scalability options where there are a few shortcomings."
"The complex setup phase is an area where improvements are needed."
"It is an expensive product. They should lower the price."
