Find out what your peers are saying about Dell Technologies, NetApp, Pure Storage and others in All-Flash Storage."The solution is scalable."
"The latency is good."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is reliability."
"The high availability of the product is the most valuable feature."
"It has good, reliable, fast storage."
"It's incredibly easy to use and greatly simplified our ability to both deploy and manage our storage subsystems."
"It is very easy to install and configure. It has got excellent diagnostics. If you really need to see how the box is performing, the console gives you a lot of information. You can set thresholds as well as alerts based on the thresholds, which is a very powerful functionality. They are very proactive. They know how to monitor and manage the systems. They see a problem, and they are all over it before us. They see the problem before we see it, which is very good."
"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 program is very stable."
"Thin storage allocation"
"Snapshots are valuable because of their seamless nature, as well as the minimal space each snapshot takes."
"Dell XtremIO is good for databases and huge workloads."
"The Metro clustering and solid-state performance, are the most valuable features of this solution."
"XtremIO’s capability to run any workload without much in the way of design considerations makes this very easy to use and size."
"The performance is good, which is important."
"XtremIO is very stable."
"It's actually shaking hands with the workflow solutions much better than any other storage."
"In the next release, I would like to see real-time analytics for further insight into consumption models."
"Many options to check performance, like read, writes, random writes, and random reads, are missing in Pure FlashArray X NVMe."
"We would like to see more visibility into garbage collection and CPU performance in the GUI."
"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."
"The UI for this solution needs to be improved."
"Efficiency improvements would always be welcome, but I'm not sure if they could get more efficient."
"The tool's portfolio is minimal. It is expensive."
"There is room for improvement in catering to midrange storage needs, especially for customers seeking Enterprise-class features."
"Ease of use is key in the converged and hyper-converged world that requires administrators to have both hypervisor and storage skills."
"Management: At the time, there was no snapshot scheduler, so I had to write XSnapCourier to address it. The sad thing is that even after the newest release, which includes a native scheduler, most customers using XSnapCourier chose to stick with it due to a more feature-rich experience."
"I am not too impressed with XtremeIO because we had a major failure."
"The physical architecture could use some higher levels of redundancy."
"The product could be improved by reducing the pricing and having better organization in their technical support team."
"Sometimes we don't get an immediate response from the support team. The initial POC also took a lot of resources."
"It is very expensive to scale. You have to buy an additional system to extend from one disc, for instance. It is scalable, but extremely expensive to do so."
"In some cases where we don’t need the flexibility of the virtualization layer, we could free up resources on the VPLEX by using the storage replication."
"It has to be flexible according to the customer's requirements. It has to be aligned with the customer business and the business environment."
