Find out what your peers are saying about Dell Technologies, NetApp, Pure Storage and others in All-Flash Storage."The solution is very reliable."
"I like the speed, and I like the API and how programmable it is."
"What I like most about this solution, is the speed, resiliency and scalability."
"All our junior partners can administer the storage arrays. It is simple and easy to use. We don't have to dedicate a whole team of full time people to work on it."
"Because of the encryption, we have different storage and the encryption can go over both."
"We can store more for a cheaper price as opposed to paying for larger devices and larger rack spaces which get outdated sooner and which we'd have to change every two years. It simplifies storage for us."
"We've been using FlashArray's snapshot for backups. Their replication across sites and response time are also excellent."
"Very stable; no worries about how much it can handle."
"It is a rugged, performance system; it is trouble-free and a workhorse."
"The technical support has been fantastic."
"Stability is awesome. Its performance has been steady and it stays up."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the native full mesh (multi-pathing)."
"I have a lot of applications that need higher IOPS, and 3PAR achieves this operation normally without any issues for the management."
"I am impressed with the product's online upgrades."
"It is worry-free. I do not have to sit there and tend it."
"3PAR is easy to keep running and does not require too much effort. It has been very reliable, which is key."
"It's actually shaking hands with the workflow solutions much better than any other storage."
"There are a lot of things to improve."
"As partners, we should have the option to download the software, rather than have to go back through Pure to obtain it."
"The higher education moves slowly. We are still looking forward to implementing the full list of existing features."
"A three wave application or multi wave application synchronization would be an improvement."
"It would be good to have metrics of the box's performance so we can see what it delivers, but currently, I can't see what it's actually doing."
"In the next release of this solution, we would like to see automated copy data management for SQL Server."
"It took us a year to get it to stabilize and to get the best out of Pure."
"I would like to see active replication. I know that it's available now but I haven't tried it yet. I hope that it works."
"The product is quite expensive."
"Although we experienced malfunctions where a virus was running and it failed."
"HPE 3PAR StoreServ's pricing could be cheaper."
"The configuration and flexibility should improve."
"In the next release, I would like them to make it a little easier to find where everything is in the new console. It now has the OneView look and sometimes I don't think the OneView look is enough. It's too different from the original console that was a separate system."
"Our support in the US has been phenomenal, no issues at all. But the European support was poor initially."
"We've started to see an issue with the older models that we have. We've had issues where facilities would have unscheduled power outages or scheduled power outages and the 3PARs weren't able to come up successfully. We actually had an incident recently where it wiped data that we didn't anticipate would be wiped."
"With 3PAR, there is remote copy software which isn't very good."
"It has to be flexible according to the customer's requirements. It has to be aligned with the customer business and the business environment."
