We performed a comparison between Dell XtremIO and Huawei OceanStor Dorado 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."It is easy to deploy and it's all-flash, so it's very fast."
"The console is simple to use. It has good performance. It is easy to install, understand, and manage, with a good ratio of deduplication and compression. It is doing its job."
"NVMe data storage platform that's easy to set up and easy to use. It's stable, with a lower response time, and quick technical support."
"The predictive performance analytics is a very good feature, as our system is performing better than before."
"It does efficient work of storing data while still delivering the performance that you would normally expect from a higher priced solution."
"Pure gives us better compression, it's easier to manage, a lot less hands-on."
"It has improved my organization because now have lower latency, we get fewer complaints from customers, and we see a constant response time."
"The ease of use. That's what our customers love. They say it's very easy, they don't need special training, they don't need to call us or any other company or integrator to help them do their job. That's the main reason they purchase Pure."
"Snapshots are valuable because of their seamless nature, as well as the minimal space each snapshot takes."
"Xtrem10's features are more simple to implement. The integration and interface are also good."
"The solution's most valuable feature is its high performance."
"The most valuable features are: complete performance and ease of use."
"I like the deduplication and auto-tiering features."
"The feature I like most about Dell Xtremio is its hardware quality compared to other vendors. It's clear they're continuously improving their research and development."
"Speed and reliability:"
"It has very good performance for an application which needs lower latency and a better response, for example, in microseconds."
"Most of the features which all enterprises storages solutions have are available in Huawei OceanStor Dorado."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the overall simplicity."
"The most valuable aspects encompass a comprehensive set of common features, such as NetFlow technology, hyper-micro, and hyper-application functionalities."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the price to performance ratio."
"Two things really stand out for me. First, there's group cloning, which is very nice. It simplifies managing multiple clones across the group. Second, Huawei's multi-controller architecture with load balancing is a good part."
"The most valuable features are the five chips architecture and the purpose-built NVMe hard disk drive. Additionally, the IOPS feature is good."
"The product offers good performance."
"Has good capacity, is effective and easy to manage."
"I would like to see data tiering to AWS."
"I would like to see them lower the costs."
"The internal garbage collection process has been fixed recently in some OS updates so it is more efficient but that could be just a little better."
"I can't see where they can make anything better, unless, of course, they lower their prices even more."
"They have a product, FlashBlade, which is their object storage integration, and that's something that we haven't integrated with yet. This might be an area for additional focus as it would play into scalability, because the very nature of object storage is that it's infinitely scalable."
"Currently, the solution fails to support file screening."
"We've had it in place for about a year and a half and have had zero complaints, other than that box-to-box replication is not encrypted."
"We would like to see more development on their Copy Automation Tool (CAT) for Oracle, as well as better integration for our customers running Oracle VM."
"The implementation isn't exactly complex, but the solution should have some enhancements in it to make the process more centralized."
"Dell's technical support could be better."
"The product could be improved by reducing the pricing and having better organization in their technical support team."
"The solution needs to be simplified. When you integrate your storage with other systems, could use a little bit of automation."
"Right now, external appliances are needed to replicate XtremIO to XtremIO, or to another EMC system."
"It needs a way to determine the deduplication of each LUN and what the impact would be if we were to move data from one LUN to another."
"Management and reporting need improvement."
"I would like to see the ease of deployment and built-in Metro clustering."
"The product could always be faster."
"Huawei OceanStor Dorado's biggest weakness is its lack of cloud integration."
"The user interface of Huawei OceanStor Dorado could be more user-friendly. Other solutions, such as EMC, have a better user interface."
"This solution does not support VMware VVols 2.0."
"The data compression and deduplication ratio of Huawei OceanStor Dorado is not as good as other solutions, such as EMC and Pure Storage. It is important when looking at capacity effectiveness."
"The solution's price could be better."
"The technology and the features need improvement."
"In additional features, it would be easier to do snapshots on a regular basis. So, like, a new feature that would allow you to take snapshots every hour."
