Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The most valuable feature of this solution is its flexibility.""You can change it non-disruptively. You can increase the size and decrease the size online, which is a huge benefit compared to Azure disks. It just works seamlessly. You don't need to stop the instances.""Using NetApp Files got us out of a really difficult situation quickly, effectively, and at a reasonable cost.""It has saved a lot of time. Because in the older, conventional hardware system, they need to raise a ticket to go to storage engineering, then storage engineering would increased the size. Now, it's dynamic. You don't have to do anything. This improved the time by more than 50 percent.""Its security and ease of use are most valuable.""The most valuable features of the solution is replication to another region and the performance. The solution is stable. The solution is scalable. The initial setup is straightforward.""Since we have NetApp's internally, we use the SnapMirror predominantly for this process in the cloud which is beneficial.""One aspect of Azure NetApp Files that I truly appreciate is its remarkable performance capabilities."

Cons
"I would like to see multi-zone redundancy so that I don't have to worry about it. I just back up my data to that one SMB share and I know that it's replicated to a different region.""We would like to have backup functionality built-in so that we don't run into the issue where the replication process makes a copy of the corrupted data.""Reserved Instances for Azure NetApp Files would improve more use cases, making them more valuable in Azure as the cost would be reduced.""This solution would be improved with more innovation.""We would like to see more paired regions for the replication.""The pricing definitely needs to be improved.""We would like for the files which are coming in that we can version them. So, if a file is accidentally deleted, there should have a recycle bin option where we can go back, and at least once, clean it up.""The deployment process is somewhat complex compared to other storage solutions."

"We encounter issues while restoring differential and cumulative backups.""We cannot use the product with other brands.""The product's technical support services need improvement in terms of response time.""The solution needs to add an archive function.""They should base their strategy according to the country and the regulations there, and focus more on the on-premises deployment.""Oracle Database Backup Service is not a cheap solution.""Deployment is overly complex and could be streamlined.""The product can protect from external data penetration, but the in-house IT team can access it."
