We performed a comparison between HPE 3PAR StoreServ and Reduxio [EOL] based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Dell Technologies, NetApp, Pure Storage and others in All-Flash Storage.
"It is fast and reliable. It works."
"Most of the problems that we had in the past with the performance in IOPS have disappeared. It has been a great improvement for our customers' services."
"The most valuable feature of Pure Storage FlashArray is its high stability level."
"The initial setup was very straightforward and very quick. It was up and running in our data center within 24 hours of receiving it."
"I like the speed, and I like the API and how programmable it is."
"They have really good baked in analytics to show you trends for growth history, so it does help with future planning for data growth."
"Having fast storage allows actual servers to perform in high capacity so we don't have slowdowns on our applications."
"Technical support has been amazing."
"HPE 3PAR StoreServ has been stable."
"This solution has allowed for massive performance acceleration of all workloads and massively increased availability (with peer persistence/transparent failover feature)."
"The solution’s deduplication functionality works great. We are getting about a 16:1 dedupe ratio on our VM workloads."
"The optimization features move chunklets or hot spots to faster drives."
"The most valuable feature when we purchased it was that it was a four-node system."
"If there is a problem then the HPE facility will detect it and immediately contact me."
"So far, we have yet to have a disk fail on either system, other than one I forced to fail when we first got the system in. So the reliability of the 3PAR system has been outstanding."
"I do not have to worry about cross systems talking to each other or multiple systems trying to interact with each other. Our entire vCenter infrastructure is one large stack, which is nice."
"Ease of use, time to market and scalability are all advantages. We can install new software and new applications in no time. That means we don't need buy a new shelf or new disks, just create a virtual machine and the system does everything behind the scenes."
"One of the beautiful parts about it is the whole user interface. It's almost too simple. As an IT professional, you think, "Where are the works, how am I assured that this is actually protecting my data?" The ease of use in terms of deployment, and also the metrics that it feeds back to you are also among the many attractive features of the whole platform."
"The TimeOS support and I/O performance. For instance, recovery of data from any point in time, and the speed of the unit, are incredible compared to other devices we reviewed."
"The ability to target existing remote storage with NoRestore is going to allow us to leverage existing storage without an increased financial investment."
"The always-on deduplication and compression is also effective and allows us to achieve about 3x savings on space utilization."
"Enables multiple hosts access to the virtual machines by providing for moving VMs due to maintenance or host failure."
"By using the BackDating option we can restore volumes based on time. It also reduces volumes and maintenance time."
"Reduxio delivers a self-contained system with all of the features rolled in and functional."
"We haven't seen ROI."
"Currently, the solution fails to support file screening."
"We did have one hiccup with the integration of vCenter. When we were installing Pure Storage, we were using vCenter 6.7, which defaults to the HTML5 Web Client. The current plugin for Pure Storage doesn't show up in that client at all. You have to go and use the legacy FlexFlash client to see the Pure Storage plugin in vCenter."
"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."
"We would like to see more development on their Copy Automation Tool (CAT) for Oracle, as well as better integration for our customers running Oracle VM."
"I would like to see more cloud integration."
"The price of the solution can improve."
"A year ago they promised that they would be able to read through the database encryption with more metric and they have not delivered on that patch, which is significant because it gives us back so much more storage room. We want to be able to read through the encryption."
"HPE has a product that I am very interested in, but it lacks of integration with 3PAR - HPE SimpliVity."
"With 3PAR, there is remote copy software which isn't very good."
"This solution is now at end-of-life."
"We had a minor error when we were configuring this system, which initially detracted from its overall stability."
"We have had some challenges in the Arabic implementation and in migration, but for daily work, it's fine."
"HPE 3PAR StoreServ should increase the storage capacity."
"HPE 3PAR StoreServ has limited flexibility in building replication solutions. There are limitations to the number of IOPS the system can do. It's not bad as it is doing its job. However, for the application, if you need a toolbox, you can build everything concerning periodic replication modes of synchronous or asynchronous three-site, four-site, with supported cascading which requires you to buy an IBM product. It also takes a few hours to one day to upgrade the system and sometimes; it takes more time because, in some HPE 3PAR StoreServ 20000 Storage, you have an eight-node system. If you do an upgrade, you do it node by node and every node might take more than an hour."
"There is a slight difference between what we expected and what was delivered."
"the only thing I would say negative about Reduxio is the cabling was a little bit confusing at first, but now that we understand it, it's easy. It was just so different from what we've seen before. That was the only hard part to get used to. The storage array is fully redundant, so there are some cross-connect cables that you have to run, from the A side to the B side, and the B side back to the A side, and we've just never seen anything like that before. But now that I understand the design, it makes complete sense. But initially it was confusing."
"We had a brief hiccup, a brief outage, during one upgrade process, but it wasn't too extreme."
"Needs to be made easier to use with slightly older versions of VMware."
"Needs some hooks into cloud storage for backup. Also they should update the system to use additional secondary storage as a resource."
"If Reduxio could manage multiple Reduxio systems within the same dashboard, or manage them as a single mode, it be very, very helpful for us."
"A centralized management would be nice, the ability to manage all cluster in one management portal."
"The ability to look at data at a file level would be useful, as well as the ability recover at that level. Right now, you can only recover whole volumes."
"I would love an iPhone app to monitor my system from outside the firewall."
