We performed a comparison between Dell XtremIO and Oracle FS1 Flash Storage System based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Dell Technologies, NetApp, Pure Storage and others in All-Flash Storage."Pure FlashArray X NVMe has low latency and high Ops. It is an evergreen model."
"The solution is very straightforward to set up."
"The system allows for seamless learning experiences, facilitating quick and easy cloning of environments within minutes."
"Pure FlashArray X NVMe helps to improve our processing speed. It is user-friendly and easy to use."
"One of the best features is the support, which is excellent."
"The initial setup was extremely simple and straightforward."
"It's helped us because we've changed fundamentally what we talk about. We don't talk about storage and different tiers of storage anymore nor do we talk about servers. We talk now about applications and how applications impact the business and end users."
"The duplication algorithm allows us to get a lot more use out of less storage. We're running a five terabyte array right now and we're running probably about 30 terabytes on it. So the duplication rate is pretty phenomenal, without a cost to performance. It still runs pretty smoothly."
"Xtrem10's features are more simple to implement. The integration and interface are also good."
"We've seen great enhancements from the performance point of view. There's good availability, stability, and continuity, but the performance actually has increased by 60 or 70%."
"It is great for applications like Microsoft Exchange, ERP, SQL and VDI; basically saved the VDI buy-in from users, as now performance was seamless in comparison to a physical PC."
"The most valuable features are: complete performance and ease of use."
"Linear performance – The XtremIO wasn’t the fastest in all tests against other all flash arrays, but even with a massive workload, the response time and user experience were absolutely predictable with no sharp drop-offs."
"It has very good performance for an application which needs lower latency and a better response, for example, in microseconds."
"The most valuable features are that it is fast and reliable."
"XtremIO’s capability to run any workload without much in the way of design considerations makes this very easy to use and size."
"It's actually shaking hands with the workflow solutions much better than any other storage."
"Efficiency improvements would always be welcome, but I'm not sure if they could get more efficient."
"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 have run into a couple of instances recently where we are running out of space. So we have had to buy some more packs for it and they have deployed fine and it has increased smoothly."
"You cannot tag a LUN with a description, and that should be improved. What I like on the Unity side is that when I expand LUNs or do things, there is an information field on the LUN. This is the Information field that you can tag on your LUNs to let yourself know, "Hey, I've added this much space on this date". Pure lacks that ability. So, you don't have a mechanism that's friendly for tracking your data expansions on the LUN and for adding any additional information. That's a downside for me."
"In terms of what needs improvement, the dashboard and management could be simplified."
"In the future, I would like to see integration with enterprise backup systems."
"We need better data deduplication."
"We would like to see VNC integration or be able to use Pure Storage with VNC."
"Right now, external appliances are needed to replicate XtremIO to XtremIO, or to another EMC system."
"XtremIO is coming to its end of life."
"Get rid of the Java aspect of the GUI console."
"XtremIO needs to be lower priced. It also needs better endpoints and scalability."
"This solution is geared toward enterprise-level companies. Small and medium-sized businesses would find it extremely expensive."
"Management: At the time, there was no snapshot scheduler, so I had to write XSnapCourier to address it. The sad thing is that even after the newest release, which includes a native scheduler, most customers using XSnapCourier chose to stick with it due to a more feature-rich experience."
"The management should be improved and the GUI interface could be better and easier."
"It needs a way to determine the deduplication of each LUN and what the impact would be if we were to move data from one LUN to another."
"It has to be flexible according to the customer's requirements. It has to be aligned with the customer business and the business environment."
