We did the implementation using an in-house team. The solution does not require a lot of maintenance. I have not updated the software in a year and when it is updated it is all done online with no downtime.

HPE came and racked the solution for us. That's all we needed. 

There is not a lot of maintenance. If we need to expand the solution there is no downtime required. For some other types of upgrades, there will be some downtime but it is minimal.

We didn't use a vendor or reseller to deploy. We implemented the solution ourselves.

We had an HPE consultant. Our experience was good.

When I scaled up, the system came to me, and I did it myself.

We do use a reseller, Logicalis.

We recently implemented smaller Nimble boxes or arrays for an isolated environment, which was set up by me, within one or two days.

We need only one engineer to deploy the solution.

We deployed in-house.

We deployed it in-house.

Implementation was in-house, done by myself.

We are the solution’s integrators. 

Our other systems administrator dealt with the integration of the product.

I think we used an integrator and a consultant. They were on campus for about five days, helping us integrate everything and move everything over.

We were able to install the solution ourselves without any outside help. We didn't need any help from an integrator or consultant.

We handled the deployment in-house.

When we deployed this we were totally new to an iSCSI environment. We actually called in some professional services. They did such a good job, I’m relatively confident that I could deploy a Nimble Storage array on my own.

We implemented our first array with a Nimble engineer onsite. Our second array was done via a vendor. Both experiences were excellent.

We had install assistance from HPE, but they would probably not be required for further installs. Our experience with HPE's assistance was good.

We used a reseller, Flair Data Systems, out of Colorado Springs for our deployment. Flair has been awesome. They are partners for a lot of other things, as well as Nimble products.

We deployed this solution ourselves.

We used a reseller, CDW, for the deployment. Our experience with CDW was good, but it was our Nimble HPE rep who really did the work.

We did it ourselves.

We had the guy come in just because we had never done it before and their sales engineer really made it go a lot easier.

HPE did the implementation of the solution for us with their certified engineers and it took approximately one week.

We handled the deployment in-house.

I implemented these SANs personally, and did not make use of a vendor team.

the vendor came here at the very beginning and set all up

It was completed in-house with the assistance from Nimble when required.

Deployment and maintenance are done in-house.

We keep the versions updated.

My first unit was a demo unit that we used internally and setup on our own. Now we're a reseller of Nimble.

We used an SI to implement HPE Nimble Storage.

It was in-house.

I do all the deployment and consultant work myself.

We had the help of HP and other consultants, it took two days to install and deploy this solution.

We are certified partners. We know exactly how to set up the solution and can do so for our clients if they need assistance. 

We deployed in-house.

The resellers did the implementation of the solution, we did not do it ourselves. We have ten people for the deployment of the solution.

The first time we implemented it, we had the help of the HPE team. the second time we did it, we were able to handle the process internally on our own.

Once the solution has been delivered, I can set it up myself.

We did it in-house.

We had an HPE engineer install this solution. We purchased the installation package with it.

Very easy to set up, approximately 10 mins per system.
