Setting up HPE StorageWorks MSA, including the NTA, is straightforward, thanks to HP's user-friendly configuration process. The step-by-step wizard simplifies the process, and even without it, configuration is manageable. Good support from HP adds to the ease of setup, making it accessible for those familiar with the process.

I was involved in the initial set up. We had to build from scratch, so we had to have all the servers and all the MSAs put into place. It is definitely a straightforward process. Very easy to use and configure.

The initial setup is quite straightforward. It's very easy to deploy in general. It's not complex at all. A company shouldn't run into any problems during the process.

We were able to integrate it with different operating systems without a problem.

The entire implementation took about one day. It wasn't too long of a process.
