Find out what your peers are saying about Dell Technologies, NetApp, Pure Storage and others in All-Flash Storage."The reliability is very good."
"Support has been helpful."
"This is the best all-flash storage array on the market."
"The most valuable feature is its data reduction."
"The ease of use. That's what our customers love. They say it's very easy, they don't need special training, they don't need to call us or any other company or integrator to help them do their job. That's the main reason they purchase Pure."
"I like its speed. It has all the features that I need."
"I never have to worry about its performance or if it is the root cause of an issue."
"Cost, racial per terabyte, and speed is why we chose PureStorage. It was no brainer."
"The greatest advantage is the support when we encounter incidents, as HPE's support is highly responsive."
"HPE Primera is scalable."
"For over a year, I have not seen any downtime in the product."
"The high availability was most valuable because they come with what's called 100% data availability. With special terms, they license and guarantee 100% data availability. That was probably one of the key features or components that HPE was offering with that model."
"The interface is simplified."
"The most important thing that we had found when we purchased this product around six months back was its 100% availability and uptime."
"The product has better replication features than the previous products."
"There has been a lot of changes in HPE Primera OS, and most of the time any package related to it is simple to upgrade. It does not require any support for the operation. The customer can easily deploy any code directly from the GUI which is very good. Additionally, we have individual storage we can allocate and easily manage."
"It's actually shaking hands with the workflow solutions much better than any other storage."
"The integration capabilities could be improved."
"It is a bit expensive."
"The way Pure Storage does the controller storage warranty or replacement has been an issue for some people who just replace the controllers every couple of years, and that's where some of the confusion with pricing and support has come in. They should be clear on the way the controller replacements happen, as it is important to know whether or not you can get a good return on them, because it can be a little confusing."
"They are doing some stuff with containers and an object search. These could be improved, because containers is one of the main topics that we are talking with our customers about."
"The scalability of the solution is not as good as it probably could be."
"I would like to see support for NVMe, end-to-end."
"The price of Pure Storage FlashArray could be better."
"Pure Storage FlashArray could improve by being more secure."
"They could work to make scalability easier."
"The product's stale snapshots feature needs improvement."
"There are certain shortcomings in the technical support offered by HPE where improvements are required."
"There really isn't any aspect of the solution that needs improvement for the customer other than its price."
"Only HPE can manage the product."
"The pricing is very high."
"Like most storage, we want to see flash become more and more stable. Like any flash that uses MLC or TLC techniques, over time, the more writes you have, the less usable the storage becomes. They try to plan for this and have a lot of extra space in the arrays, but over time, their performance does degrade. This is true for any flash storage."
"The file server embedded in Pure, the GUI, and the tracking and reporting features are better with Pure Storage."
"It has to be flexible according to the customer's requirements. It has to be aligned with the customer business and the business environment."
