"The amount of throughput that we're getting is really nice."
"The tool is simple and easy to use. It has neat features like protection from device removal. Moreover, you can undo the deletes. The solution is easy to work with and not as complicated as CAC"
"The initial setup was straightforward in the way that it was a database vacuum storage."
"The availability and ease of use are the big features."
"It helps to simplify storage. For most of our customers, when they move to Pure Storage, storage becomes an afterthought."
"There was a dramatic improvement in operating costs just as a result of the environmentals and space, let alone the cost of the unit itself."
"Cost, racial per terabyte, and speed is why we chose PureStorage. It was no brainer."
"The most valuable features are simplified provisioning and management, de-duplication, and built-in encryption."
"We get storage access without the need for more human monitoring of those resources."
"The solution runs pretty fast."
"I have found the convergence rate and deduplication the most valuable features."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"The stability is awesome. The product has always been reliable. It has been 100 percent up. We have never had any downtime with it. Even if a controller fails due to our firmware or whatever, it rolls over to the second one and keeps us running."
"I use InfoSight quite a bit. It works well. It allows you to get some insight into what's happening in your environment immediately, instead of having to send things off and having them analyzed and sent back to you."
"HPE Nimble Storage is very stable and performs well."
"The most valuable feature is data mirroring."
"I would rate this solution an eight. There's always room for improvement, nobody is perfect to get a ten out of ten. They do what they do well. It's not cheap but we it's for uses that we needed."
"I would like to see some improvements on the FlashBlade side around the CIFS space support. I am not super familiar with all the different NAS protocols that they run on their box, but there could be some improvements made on SMB CIFS side."
"It took us a year to get it to stabilize and to get the best out of Pure."
"The GUI could improve, it could be more intuitive. There is hidden functionality."
"I would like to see the NAS add-on component become more fault-tolerant than just a single virtual machine running inside the array. I'm unwilling to use it for that reason."
"I would like to migrate to the cloud in the future and know how that would actually work with this product."
"Larger capacity and more storage ports would be the two things I'd like to see."
"The price should be lower."
"The exterior display needs to be improved."
"We would like there to be more enhanced features."
"I want to see the full integration with OneView. I know they have started it, but I haven't had a chance to look at and evaluate it."
"It would be ideal if all these enterprise-class high-performance products would come at a cheaper price."
"If they could reduce the cost, that would be ideal."
"The solution requires a higher availability."
"More reporting is probably the only thing that is really lacking. It would be helpful to go to the business and say, "This is how we've evolved with our solution, and this is why we need more." Being able to put forward a business case with data to back it up, essentially."
"Nimble requires its DNS to work in order to interface with VMware vCenter is a little thorn in my eye, but I am being nitpicky here."
"The quality of technical support depends on which member of the support team you speak with."
