Find out in this report how the two Modular SAN (Storage Area Network) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The solution is easy to use."
"Most valuable features are its ease of use, robust Snapshot functionality, and that you can use it in two datacenters with SnapMirror-ing."
"The SnapMirror is a good tool because, as long as you're going NetApp to NetApp, it's ultimately the fastest way to move data. We replicate everything to another site for disaster recovery."
"NetApp FAS is highly stable and reliable, especially under a heavy load. That is what I like most about the NetApp."
"It has integrated snapshot and backup capability."
"NetApp FAS Series is simple to set up."
"The migration of the volume on the cluster is very useful and easy to use."
"The most valuable feature for us is the combining of HA and SnapMirror."
"I like its storage capacity, quick access to the data, speed, and overall storage management."
"We no longer have OEM support in South Africa which is not helpful, it can be difficult. They should add an office back to the country because it was better."
"There are some technical limitations, but it would be great to have in-line deduplication and in-line compression for the FAS series as well."
"We're supposed to have used NetApp FAS Series for replication, but then one of the nodes failed, and then it's taken us some time to bring it up."
"The high cost of the product is an area of concern, so from an improvement perspective, the tool needs to be made cheaper."
"The user interface could be improved to have better graphics and the performance analyzer could be better."
"Needs more SAN support."
"If our customer needs a high-performance storage solution then we don't recommend this product."
"Technical support needs to be improved, as there are no longer partners in our country."
"The main thing Oracle can improve is the cost. It would be better if Oracle opened up the system to enable integration with other vendors. Whether it's the database, application server, or storage appliance, they should make it easy to integrate them. They need to open up more to ensure that it can work in any environment and IT ecosystem."
