Seamless upgrades have boosted reliable block performance and simplified data center operations
Using block storage with Everpure Evergreen One has helped my production workloads primarily through performance and reliability. The performance is excellent because of Pure's simple architecture with just two controllers. Everpure Evergreen One offers exceptional features, including hardware that is compact and does not occupy multiple racks in data centers. The cooling and electricity savings are significant, and the ease of management means that even someone without any experience can manage Pure. The ease of management has helped my team because storage provisioning is straightforward. You can provision storage with just two clicks without waiting. There is no spinning, no loading, nothing—just one action, assuming you have already completed the zoning and added the hosts and host groups. Everpure Evergreen One has positively impacted my organization because the Evergreen model provides a hardware refresh every three years, essentially giving you new hardware and better performance, which is one of the coolest things. From these hardware refreshes, I have seen specific outcomes including no downtime at all. I performed a controller upgrade from M series to X, and it was seamless—no downtime, just one controller replacement at a time, with no performance issues and data still accessible.

Flexible monthly infrastructure has simplified management and improved client cost control
Some valuable points about HPE GreenLake are that it is a managed solution in the same pane of glass. HPE GreenLake integrates well with the existing infrastructure, and it is straightforward. HPE GreenLake positively impacts my organization because it saves money and time, and it improves my sales because I have another solution to reduce costs for the client. The client may need to pay two thousand dollars to change every infrastructure in one payment, but not all clients have the total amount available. However, if it is possible to pay month-to-month for the solution, it is much easier for the client to accept the proposal. HPE GreenLake's real-time monitoring tools are good, and I really need them to improve the services.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Everpure Evergreen One helps us to grow our business and sales; those are the two big points that we continue to offer the brand."
"We have snapshots. We put snapshots on disks, and we can save information. In the case of ransomware, everything is in the snapshot. We have a snapshot lock on it, so it's safe."
"The most valuable features in Pure Storage Evergreen One are the SLAs, which are tied to the kind of services that we are going to run, and these SLAs govern the consumption and the reporting as well."
"My advice to others looking into using Everpure Evergreen One is that if you're looking for low maintenance on the technical side and happy upper management, Everpure Evergreen One is probably the best option to keep your business flowing smoothly without any interruptions, making everyone happy, including the customers who are paying."
"Pure Storage has the highest Net Promoter Score in the market."
"The Evergreen program is excellent, and the pricing is quite reasonable. My friends who work there are doing very well and consistently achieving strong results. Like any company, they experience occasional downturns but perform impressively overall."
"Everpure Evergreen One has impacted my organization positively because, as an SI company, when we buy it in bulk and share it among multiple other customers, it helps us with the shared model and how we can handle the entire workload."
"Everpure Evergreen One has positively impacted my organization as I can share specific outcomes or metrics from partnering with Everpure, for example, it has helped attract more clients and improve our demo success rates."
"It sort of lines up with our direction to move to the cloud. By using a hybrid cloud service to get us there, this allows us to run our legacy workloads on-premise. Those which are not really suited to a proper cloud."
"In case the client needs this resource, it is available, and it is the best option in the market right now."
"Absolute flexibility for scaling storage needs on demand."
"It is the flexible way to pay for everything that you need and pay as you go."
"It has made our organization's capacity management efforts so much better. Usually, engineers need to take time to worry about firmware updates and and getting that stuff done. However, that falls to the wayside, knowing with GreenLake's data center management and data center support that all the firmware has been tested for all the equipment that you have. When you apply the updates, nothing should go wrong, because it has already been fully tested."
"We have a service and cost model based on utilization for specific KPIs, measured by memory and storage, with no costs for CPU consumption. This approach has allowed us to manage and optimize utilization and consumption effectively."
"In the next four years over the lifespan of the first segment, it's going to be saving us approximately $1.2 million in just hardware purchases and software support costs."
"The fact that we can now add storage on the fly without any downtime means better productivity and scalability on demand."
 

Cons

"Customers are very happy with Everpure Evergreen One solutions; however, it could be improved with better prices and availability of new storage or flash arrays."
"Everpure Evergreen One could be improved by being slightly more flexible with the pricing model."
"The only potential drawback is that Pure Storage might be overkill if you don't need microsecond response times."
"I would love to explore more options on what Pure Storage Evergreen One can offer in general, mostly from the cybersecurity perspective and air gap."
"It would be nice to have support in Swedish."
"Many customers report that the starting price is quite high. However, the overall total cost of ownership can be reduced over time due to features like the Evergreen architecture, which allows savings through less management and environmental benefits."
"I'm not sure if any improvements are needed."
"To me, I think it's a little expensive. Then again, you get what you pay for."
"Part of the integration, with cutting things over to Unisys, may have hurt us a bit."
"The time to receive a price when I am going to a proposal is too long."
"Unfortunately, HPE GreenLake can be sold only in Bahrain, UAE, and the Middle East, meaning it can be sold in only three or four countries because it requires certain approvals from countries where it has to be used."
"I don't think we have seen an actual return on investment or that the return is not directly related to the product."
"I would like to have more detail in the monitoring."
"I don't think we'll know until we get to the end of the contract if the service has saved us money."
"HPE GreenLake can improve by making some of the user's experience better. It can take some time to learn."
"I think the solution has cost us money. It hasn't decreased the time it takes to deploy IT projects."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is very good."
"If you are looking to turn some of your capital expense into operational expense, this allows you to do it. It is a good idea."
"Our first year costs were approximately $1.2 million instead of spending five to six million dollars."
"HPE GreenLake has been growing in popularity due to its subscription model. The flexibility of the solution allows it to adapt to the changing market trends towards more edge performance and workloads."
"Right now we're paying about $180,000 per year."
"The price could be more flexible."
"Pricing is based on usage plateaus. The more you use, the more you pay."
"If you're used to buying HPE servers, it's less expensive than that. I don't really compare competitor servers because HPE has never given me any reason to look otherwise. However, if you get good pricing on HPE servers, you get better pricing on GreenLake."
"In terms of pricing, it's a bit on the higher side."
