We performed a comparison between HPE Nimble Storage and HPE StoreOnce based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two All-Flash Storage solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Pure has signature security technology, which cannot be deleted, even if you are an administrator."
"Pure FlashArray X NVMe helps to improve our processing speed. It is user-friendly and easy to use."
"The Pure1 component is most valuable at this point in time when comparing it with EMC. Pure1 is where you can have your diagnostics in the cloud, so you can look at things from your mobile phone."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is its ease of use."
"The solution is scalable."
"What I really like about this program, is that it is easy to use and easy to configurate."
"Pure FlashArray X NVMe has low latency and high Ops. It is an evergreen model."
"The high availability of the product is the most valuable feature."
"Its speed, ease of use, and it has been completely reliable."
"It's easy to use, it's just like 3PAR. I made clusters of 32 hosts with 50 volumes and that took barely an hour. I scripted a lot of it, filled in the names of volumes, the names of servers."
"They could probably improve an organization with just about anything. It is all a matter of ease of use, ease of the implementation, etc."
"Our upgrades are seamless. Whether we're adding storage, or upgrading the software, we don't take an outage for those upgrades."
"The tool’s support is feasible."
"We use a platform as a service and have multiple application vendors who comprise that platform. There are moments when those application vendors put the blame on us. By working in InfoSight, I am able to say, "No, it is not us." I can actually provide proof, either by using screenshots or through reporting."
"Our virtual admins are able to take control of Nimble and know how to allocate the storage, whenever it is required, thus reducing time."
"The most useful features are high availability and the storage snapshot backup functionality."
"The solution is stable."
"The valuable feature is the ability to work with the Veeam software to reduce the backup windows."
"HPE StoreOnce is particularly useful in situations where organizations require a backup solution to store their data. Its deduplication feature is quite impressive, providing a deduplication ratio of around 25 to 26."
"The most valuable features are the deduplication and compression capabilities."
"The product's most valuable feature is stability."
"Has very good deduplication and encryption features."
"Quick recovery."
"The solution saves a lot of storage capacity."
"If the customer only needs 500 terabytes and doesn't care how much data they'll put in the server, IBM is cheaper than Pure."
"We would like to see more visibility into garbage collection and CPU performance in the GUI."
"In the next release, I would like to see real-time analytics for further insight into consumption models."
"There is room for improvement in catering to midrange storage needs, especially for customers seeking Enterprise-class features."
"The tool's portfolio is minimal. It is expensive."
"We need better data deduplication."
"It's more multi-tenant functionality in their Pure1 manage portal that is lacking."
"We would like to see VNC integration or be able to use Pure Storage with VNC."
"I would like to see the network portion of the product improve, especially with some of the things which are coming out from Aruba and HPE. Both are innovating more of an automated networking. I would like to see our Nimble meld into that and do some automated networking."
"When we’re setting up the solution, making options available regarding the replication tool mechanism would be ideal."
"An area that needs improvement is extending the life of the device after five years."
"It would be ideal if all these enterprise-class high-performance products would come at a cheaper price."
"Pure Storages have some option, which allows us the ability to directly download that host inventory and volume report. We can receive everything directly generated from the storage itself. We do not need to use some other web browser or something. If HPE Nimble Storage could do the same it would be a benefit."
"We are doing a hybrid and are moving some machines to Microsoft Azure to run in hybrid mode. We are checking the availability of extra software-defined storage so that we can configure it."
"I think the scalability of HPE Nimble Storage could be improved."
"I would like to see SSL Certification."
"The user interface of HPE StoreOnce is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"Agnostic backups."
"The user interface of HPE StoreOnce should be more user-friendly. Additionally, the configuration and troubleshooting could be better."
"The platform's price could be lower."
"This product would be improved with the inclusion of more features to security or WORM."
"The web interface, ease of use, and GUI all need to be improved."
"We're outsourced with a partner who recalls a larger amount of problems with the stability of the product."
"The latency is a bit high."
