Excellent performance, scalable, easy to install, and outstanding support
Both the pricing and the performance are excellent. I don't have any issues with this solution at all. In my use case, there is nothing I would change about it. They continue to do more with regards to usability, and then security around ransomware. That is what their recent improvements have been. They redid the code a little bit to make sure that it was more resistant towards crypto or cyberattacks, and ransomware.

A scalable solution with Veeam and Vertias alliance
I am impressed with the tool's technical alliance with Veeam and Veritas.  The product needs to improve performance while scaling out. It also needs to improve stability.  I have been using the product since seven years.  I would rate the product's stability a nine out of ten. I would rate the…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Both the pricing and the performance are excellent."
"The most valuable features of ExaGrid EX are the Veeam features and Landing Zone."
"I am impressed with the tool's technical alliance with Veeam and Veritas."
"While the challenges posed by the difficulties were significant, they prompted the replacement of problematic components, resulting in the resolution of issues. Importantly, there were no substantial ongoing concerns. Regarding the overall performance, it has been consistently excellent."
 

Cons

"I would like to see free disk space."
"The solution’s web access should be improved."
"The product needs to improve performance while scaling out. It also needs to improve stability."
"Perhaps the most notable area for enhancement lies in the web interface for management. The current limitations in LDAP editing capabilities are not addressed in the UI, and I haven't observed any recent updates. It's possible that the new version of the DXI service incorporates improvements in the GUI, but I cannot confirm. While there is room for improvement in the current GUI, it remains a relatively minor issue. Overall, the system is comprehensive, covering aspects such as reports on latency and networking, leaving little room for additional enhancements in those areas."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The renewal fee is approximately $3,500 to $3.750 for a 60 terabyte device."
"I rate ExaGrid EX ten out of ten for pricing."
"I do not oversee this aspect, as pricing is contingent on factors such as volume, technical specifications, and the desired features. Consequently, I lack information on the pricing details and structure."
