Find out what your peers are saying about Dell Technologies, NetApp, Pure Storage and others in All-Flash Storage."The performance and the ever-growing maintenance are the most valuable features of this solution."
"We're getting good performance, and the compression ratio is also very good in Pure Storage FlashArray."
"It worked flawlessly."
"Pure Storage technology allowed us to automate tasks, reducing something which started as a 12-hour turnaround down to about 15 minutes."
"The solution helps to simplify storage."
"The amount of throughput that we're getting is really nice."
"It upgrades in place which means we'll be using it well into the future."
"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."
"The most valuable features are simplified provisioning and management, de-duplication, and built-in encryption."
"The initial setup was extremely simple and straightforward."
"FlashArray has some fresh efficiency features. I've never seen a storage solution with a compression rating this high before. It's at least 4-to-1 on Oracle databases. It's the best flash storage for Oracle."
"The most valuable features of this solution are its ease of use and performance."
"It's helped us because we've changed fundamentally what we talk about. We don't talk about storage and different tiers of storage anymore nor do we talk about servers. We talk now about applications and how applications impact the business and end users."
"One of the best features is the support, which is excellent."
"Technical support has been helpful and responsive."
"The Pure1 component is most valuable at this point in time when comparing it with EMC. Pure1 is where you can have your diagnostics in the cloud, so you can look at things from your mobile phone."
"The solution is scalable."
"As partners, we should have the option to download the software, rather than have to go back through Pure to obtain it."
"Having something native in the Pure Storage ecosystem would make it integrated and in one single company, and we wouldn't have to work with multiple organizations."
"It goes at about 95 percent, so we have had some performance issues. It is hard to clear them."
"I would like to have an easy way to determine the cost per VM so that I can present a solution to our customers."
"On a couple of occasions, the waiting time for an upgrade has been pretty substantial."
"The 3PAR SSD arrays that we have are still failing a lot so even though we're under warranty, we still have to get someone out and usually have someone troubleshoot so that usually adds onto the cost. With Pure, we've had a disc fail and we pop it out and you pop it in and it's good to go."
"I would like some performance analytics which go deeper than today. It should be specific to some hosts and applications. This would be good."
"I would like to migrate to the cloud in the future and know how that would actually work with this product."
"The exterior display needs to be improved."
"The tool's portfolio is minimal. It is expensive."
"We have run into a couple of instances recently where we are running out of space. So we have had to buy some more packs for it and they have deployed fine and it has increased smoothly."
"They could add more support for file storage and different types of storage."
"In terms of what needs improvement, the dashboard and management could be simplified."
"If the customer only needs 500 terabytes and doesn't care how much data they'll put in the server, IBM is cheaper than Pure."
"There is room for improvement in the pricing of the product."
"We need better data deduplication."
"In the next release, I would like to see real-time analytics for further insight into consumption models."
