"This is one of the most reliable and dependable products on the market."
"The first thing that attracted this model to us was the non-disruptive migration. We had a very large database application that was on older gear and needed to be migrated to these arrays. We had experience with virtualizing behind an array and moving applications and data but this made it even better."
"It's a state of the art solution in storage systems. High-availability and performance are the strongest aspects of these machines."
"The feature I like best is the stability of the hardware."
"The product has great data storage performance with a 100% data security and availability guarantee."
"The product provides a good storage space."
"The most valuable feature of Hitachi Virtual Storage Platform G Series is the platform and overall usage has been good. We have not had very many issues."
"It is very stable."
"HPE has reliable support for HDD replacement."
"There have been no fail-stop failures for the last five years."
"In terms of ransomware, Pure Storage is probably a couple of steps ahead of Hitachi, but Hitachi does not rush in terms of features. They want to be really sure that the hardware works properly without any kind of problem in new environments, and the implementation or improvement does not affect the customer installation. They really want to make sure that customers are not affected in any way."
"We have not been able to procure more discs for upcoming projects and this has been a problem for us. Not having additional storage is going to be an issue. The solution is at its end of life and will be replaced soon."
"Hitachi Vantara has invested heavily in improving their management interface, however, they still have a way to go to catch up with many of their competitors."
"I would like the fan noise to be automatically adjusted based on the drive's current workload."
"They should look at the cost because there are other vendors who offer the same cost with more features."
"If they had a certain approach to layered storage, it would be better. For example, adaption to the browser, or having a centralized console."
"In terms of what could be improved, it could use a better, faster web console and other consoles. It is so boring waiting, waiting and waiting for it to refresh."
"The user experience is pretty bad in Hitachi. A lot of mandatory tasks take a long time to work through."
"Performance could probably be improve with faster controllers, but it is already an old device. We do have performance problems now, but it is a rather old device, so we have what we have."
