Upgrades are always hold-our-breath situations. I’ve been lucky, but I’ve heard horror stories. I’m also dead-ended.

I don´t find issues yet

When it comes to deployment we had our share of issues. Some of these issues are to blame on the vendor's lack of experience with the new models and ONTAP versions, but sometimes the systems themselves were faulty.

We see a lot of bugs in roll outs, and sometimes I think the first GA are late-beta deployments. My impression is they could have let it bake a little longer. But it could also be because of some of the environments it deploys in.

We've had no issues with deployment.

Unexpected costs and some systems were not compatible with cluster mode.

Deploying NetApp appliances is hard work. A lot of experience is required, mainly when your project runs a MetroCluster solution.

We've had no issues with deployment.

Nothing special.

We've had no issues with deploying it.

Not with deployment, but, again, there are sometimes bugs when we perform upgrades.
