Find out what your peers are saying about Dell Technologies, NetApp, Nasuni and others in NAS."The storage capacity is really one of the most valuable features. Also, the GUI is very friendly and the switches gives high performance. The technology used in storage is RAID which as helped us a lot to expand and store various items ."
"It has many options for scalability, and it is stable."
"The most valuable features in IBM FlashSystem are IOPS, performance, duplication, and compression."
"Data deduplication is one of the most valuable features of this solution."
"IBM FlashSystem is a stable solution."
"Stability-wise, this solution is fine."
"IBM FlashSystem is the best solution for storage virtualization."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is replication...Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten."
"The all-flash storage has tier replication capabilities."
"The performance of the All-Flash System is very good. There is more enhanced performance and data production in the solution, which I appreciate."
"The call charges and the management cost should be more friendly. They can also include monitoring and management."
"The handling of data deletion and bulk servers setup could have been more straightforward and easier when dealing with data removal or setting up servers. I believe Huawei could enhance their solutions, especially managing storage, to provide a better experience for customers."
"Our model does not support compression or deduplication."
"The solution is not easy to use and could improve."
"It has room for improvement in the area of stability."
"A big area for improvement is that the data reduction pool feature is not recommended for use in a production environment because it has stability and performance issues."
"The interface of this solution could be improved."
"I would like to have a larger disk. Right now, you can get 57 terabytes in a shelf. Once they get the larger disk and you get larger capacities, it'll be even better."
"The GUI for monitoring performance metrics could provide better visibility. For example, it doesn't let me segregate the IOPS per volume."
"The installation is not easy. You need to have extensive knowledge to handle it."
IBM FlashSystem products are enterprise computer data storage systems that store data on flash memory chips. Unlike storage systems that use standard solid-state drives, IBM FlashSystem products incorporate custom hardware based on technology from the 2012 acquisition of Texas Memory Systems. This hardware provides performance, reliability, and efficiency benefits versus competitive offerings.
