We performed a comparison between IBM PurePower System, IBM VersaStack, and Vblock [EOL] based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Dell Technologies, NetApp, Hewlett Packard Enterprise and others in Converged Infrastructure."We never have any issues or glitches."
"The solution has high IOPS and the I/O is important because it gives us more transactions per second."
"The combination of Cisco's architecture and IBM's flash technology. Cisco provides FI technology which provides one simple architecture. IBM's flash technology is fast."
"Replication and DR implementation became faster."
"The most valuable features are reliability and high availability."
"Systems run solidly."
"The high redundancy of components has minimized frequent service degradation/failure."
"The component integration means I don't have to worry about technology mismatches."
"It's an integrated box Mac solution, so it's a plug and play. The deployment and build is pre-made and ready to deploy. It makes it easy to apply."
"Capability for scale and growth within a single rack brings strong possibilities for capacity planning."
"The most valuable feature is that it is centrally managed, as it is quite easy for our customers to manage everything, end-to-end."
"The XtremIO All-Flash array delivers performance, reliability, and deduplication."
"The management is really difficult when it comes to systems with traditional services."
"Raw data mapping for storage should be a given option."
"The solution should improve deduplication to get a lot of savings."
"Tighter alignment could simplify and speed up the configuration and delivery process."
"It needs more customer/client involvement in back-end management."
"I would like to see them improve their switching infrastructure and rely on Cisco configurations. They are a bit more complex and technical, but result in a slightly reduced cost in terms of switching on the network side of it."
"Improve the patching process and timeliness of updates/releases."
"With respect to the technical support, there is room for improvement."
"While most public clouds are deployed on Linux, there is current no certified Vblock working on KVM hypervisors."
"OEM services requires too much planning and low availability of certified engineers."
"The implementation and support could be better."
