We performed a comparison between HPE Nimble Storage and Tintri VMstore T7000 based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two All-Flash Storage solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI.
"It has benefited my organization because it has reduced time to insights."
"It's incredibly easy to use and greatly simplified our ability to both deploy and manage our storage subsystems."
"The Pure1 component is most valuable at this point in time when comparing it with EMC. Pure1 is where you can have your diagnostics in the cloud, so you can look at things from your mobile phone."
"We're able to get higher-density workloads on the same infrastructure, and we have a smaller physical footprint. The performance is excellent – during our test the bottlenecks are never on the X array, it just keeps picking up the pace to match what you need. The real-time visibility is a differentiator in my opinion."
"It has good, reliable, fast storage."
"Pure FlashArray X NVMe has low latency and high Ops. It is an evergreen model."
"The most valuable features of this solution are its ease of use and performance."
"The solution is scalable."
"Performance, reliability, InfoSight, the ability to upgrade the O/S on the SAN without taking it down, and cost."
"The fact that they offer free training is awesome. There are not very many vendors that do that."
"The replay and IOPS work well."
"Good architecture and produces a lot of IOPS."
"We have seen our average latency go from four milliseconds to point four. Therefore, we are getting 10 times better performance down to the end user on everything. We have seen an increase in our IOPS by ten times."
"It's given us more time to do the important things, less time worrying about SANs and failures and picking up the pieces. It just works."
"The capacity for data storage and compression is good."
"I have found the convergence rate and deduplication the most valuable features."
"The data encryption feature adds a valuable security enhancement with no impact on performance."
"Upgrades are super easy and can be done during business hours without interruptions in production."
"You can control resources on a per VM basis to ensure that contention in resources does not hamper performance."
"It is a set and forget environment with a very good tooling to view performance and delivers the IOPS we need for our VDI environment."
"The most valuable feature is the VM management."
"The cloning is very fast... Another aspect I like is that it's very simple. It's an easy GUI to use."
"Support from our vendor and Tintri are brilliant. They have always answered all of our questions promptly."
"A very good support team that is available 24/7. They have real technical staff with strong knowledge."
"The tool's portfolio is minimal. It is expensive."
"We would like to see VNC integration or be able to use Pure Storage with VNC."
"We've seen that when we create a POD in synchronous mode, it increases the latency."
"I'd like to see the product implement active replication for vehicles such as VMware."
"Efficiency improvements would always be welcome, but I'm not sure if they could get more efficient."
"The tool's pricing is higher than competitors."
"Every time I think of something that needs to improve, they're one step ahead, which I love. The only area I wish to see improve, I believe is coming, is in the FlashBlade product. Blade implementation fell short on a few of the services."
"In the next release, I would like to see real-time analytics for further insight into consumption models."
"I think the scalability of HPE Nimble Storage could be improved."
"It would be ideal if all these enterprise-class high-performance products would come at a cheaper price."
"A feature that would be a nice addition to the next release would be a filer option. A filer option so that you could connect the sim or NFS or chips like NetApp does for NAS functionality."
"I wish they would put the InfoSight page back the way it was. I got in it for the first time about two years ago, and it looked the same for about a year and a half. Then, about six months ago, it changed. There are different options now. I can still get to where I need to go, but it feels like it takes longer, where before it didn't. Also, I felt like I had a lot more options before. I have to do a lot more to digging now to get to where I need to go. I just wish they had their old page back."
"The solution requires a higher availability."
"The backup solution that they are using now probably has not been deduped."
"I'd like to see more granular quality of service rules. Currently, I think currently there's not much room for maximum IOPS, but there's not an option for minimum IOPS for a given volume."
"The solution that I have is a hybrid, not a full flash. The hybrid version could be improved."
"On the software side, I suggest adding integration with backups software like CommVault Simpana or Veeam where these products can integrate with the array and trigger things like snapshots for backup, etc."
"I would like to be able to add more storage capacity to our 2 units down the road with out buying an additional seprate array."
"The Tintri Analytics site is excellent for long-term trending, but more data would be great."
"In sync and automated mirror between two Tintris is missing."
"Speed of our VDI machines. We have a very high log in and log out ratio and machines are being refreshed instantly so we have a constant boot storm on our storage."
"More cloud integration."
"We need more options to integrate with cloud storage options other than the current AWS and IBM that it currently supports."
"I would like it to have the ability to store data other than virtual machines. At the moment, you can only connect VMs to it, and that’s a bit disappointing."
