"They have a feature called Live Migrate; it's been very, very useful."
"Connecting it up, you can run it within a few hours."
"There's some new stuff coming with 7.3, which just got released, where they're spreading the sparing across the whole array, rather than having a dedicated spare disk, and have it sit there and do nothing until one of them dies, and then it kicks in - and having to rebuild all of that. Now, they'll do the sparing across all the disks and they say that is going to add not only space but performance to the array, with 7.3."
"It is just as stable as any other high-end solution."
"I find this version to be more budget-friendly compared to products from other vendors. This aspect greatly benefits my customers. It's highly advantageous due to its affordability.

"The initial setup is somewhat complex and should be made simpler to do."
"In terms of additional features, I would like to see some kind of I/O meter, to indicate what we are using in terms of performance. I would like to see automation with that, where it would give me the trends. I want to know those things easily, to help me know where issues are going to occur."
"This product should be a lot more user-friendly."
"Snapshots in VMware. You can’t do snapshots since the storage itself does that. Therefore, some apps (Veeam, for example) don’t work well with this kind of tiering storage."
"There's always room for improvement in the operating code."
"The SC Series doesn't support NVMe storage."
"I don't think the solution is very scalable."
"In some customer cases, customers experienced more performance or latency."
"It is an expensive product. They should lower the price."
