We performed a comparison between Dell PowerStore 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."The duplication algorithm allows us to get a lot more use out of less storage. We're running a five terabyte array right now and we're running probably about 30 terabytes on it. So the duplication rate is pretty phenomenal, without a cost to performance. It still runs pretty smoothly."
"Technical support has been helpful and responsive."
"Pure FlashArray X NVMe will quickly overcome all the hurdles you face, including network and latency issues."
"The standout features for us in Pure FlashArray X NVMe are its robust DDoS protection, seamless transparent failover, and failback capabilities ensuring high availability."
"FlashArray has some fresh efficiency features. I've never seen a storage solution with a compression rating this high before. It's at least 4-to-1 on Oracle databases. It's the best flash storage for Oracle."
"The system allows for seamless learning experiences, facilitating quick and easy cloning of environments within minutes."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is its ease of use."
"Pure has signature security technology, which cannot be deleted, even if you are an administrator."
"The compression is excellent."
"This solution is very useful to us as we use it internally for all of the services that we need. We use it as a lab and we showcase new technology to the customers and how it can help them going forward."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"Overall, we're quite happy with the product because we can move the data that is stored on more than 10 of our current storage devices to a single PowerStore."
"The solution is easy to use and has good performance."
"It has its own file formatting protocol, which saves a lot of space."
"Migrations are very easy and fast."
"The solution is stable."
"You can control resources on a per VM basis to ensure that contention in resources does not hamper performance."
"We have been able to scale up to ten VM storages and 500 VMs through a single pane of glass."
"We also find the detail per-vm reporting at the ability to see reports from the hypervisor straight back to the storage useful."
"The most valuable feature is the VM management."
"Tintri VMstore is rock solid. We have not had a single issue with stability. It is also very low maintenance allowing us to concentrate on project work."
"It is great for finding problems where VMs are hogging all the performance."
"Its speed has been absolutely fantastic."
"The ability to snap machines into VMware quickly is valuable."
"In the next release, I would like to see real-time analytics for further insight into consumption models."
"They could add more support for file storage and different types of storage."
"In the future, I would like to see integration with enterprise backup systems."
"In terms of what needs improvement, the dashboard and management could be simplified."
"We have run into a couple of instances recently where we are running out of space. So we have had to buy some more packs for it and they have deployed fine and it has increased smoothly."
"I want to see Pure Storage not only be for fast storage, but I want to see it be for the entire data center."
"We need better data deduplication."
"The tool's pricing is higher than competitors."
"It was very new when we first deployed it a year ago. Even the upgrade processes and knowing what to expect, as well as documentation, could be more robust."
"While using Dell PowerStore's interface in our organization, we sometimes miss out on some information."
"More demonstration and training options are needed."
"PowerStore's management console could be improved."
"There is no Synchronize replication feature on the storage."
"We are happy with the service in general. The only thing would be the price of the platform."
"The support is not very good."
"The UI should be a little more user-friendly to manage."
"I would love more insight into each virtual machine statistic."
"The product could be improved by adding iSCSI support. We have had to rethink how we implement some of our services due to this."
"What I feel would be nice, in terms of a wishlist, is scalability. Rather than replacing the whole appliance, I would like to be able to just add another unit and scale it like that."
"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."
"I'm waiting to see the Kubernetes package. I know they're releasing one, but I haven't seen it yet."
"More cloud integration."
"It would be beneficial if Tintri could identify issues through telemetry and notify us before we need to contact them."
"The Tintri OS and GlobalCenter software do a great job of showing you troubled VMs, however it still could be a bit more helpful in diagnosing the issues."
