Enabled us to move from a monolithic approach to a more flexible model

Pros

"The NetApp technology that has delivered the most value to our organization is FabricPool."

Cons

"One of the challenges we face with NetApp is identifying bottlenecks in the systems they integrate with."

Standardized storage, good speeds, and very good backups

Pros

"Before, we didn't have standardized storage, so adopting the solution across our organization has allowed us the ability to provide data across all our sites and dramatically improve our backup and disaster."

Cons

"We'd like to see them implement more subscription services into the base support model."

Since switching, our clients have reported improved performance and reduced latency

Pros

"I like NetApp AFF's deduplication. "

Cons

"I don't work on the technical side of things, so it's hard for me to highlight areas of improvement, but maybe the price could be a little better. "

Flexible with great support and high-speed multi-protocol storage

Pros

"We have a comprehensive solution that could accommodate anything. We can fly it earlier and get them in the air testing and prototyping much faster than they could have with other solutions. "

Cons

"We have to work with technology that we can deploy ourselves, run where we decide, and not necessarily anywhere, and that can survive for long periods of time disconnected from a cloud. For us, that's probably been one of the bigger cybersecurity challenges: how do we maintain security, maintain updates, patches, profiles, policies, and all that stuff without subscribing to a service from your friendly neighbourhood cloud provider? This product does a better-than-average job of that. "

Easy data storage with room to expand and has good pricing

Pros

"The usability of actually being able to scale it out has been great."

Cons

"I honestly don't have anything of note on how they can improve."

Has good management and solution consolidation with room to expand

Pros

"The mirroring of two different sites is great. "

Cons

"I know they're working well with Microsoft and VMware. However, they could integrate with more."

Centralized management with good storage and performance

Pros

"Having it separate and having a dedicated storage area network or a dedicated network attached storage, for us, just worked better. It's been faster. "

Cons

"In terms of improvements, they could have a couple more things that are usually done through the command line. "

Allows us to tier off older data at a cheaper cost

Pros

"It's helping us achieve our budget constraints while allowing us to work in other areas."

Cons

"We had a lot of issues with two-factor authentication using, for example, Okta."
