"The most valuable feature of this solution is reliability."
"The system allows for seamless learning experiences, facilitating quick and easy cloning of environments within minutes."
"FlashArray has some fresh efficiency features. I've never seen a storage solution with a compression rating this high before. It's at least 4-to-1 on Oracle databases. It's the best flash storage for Oracle."
"Pure FlashArray X NVMe will quickly overcome all the hurdles you face, including network and latency issues."
"There are a lot of redundancies in all the right areas, so it is pretty stable."
"Any updates are just part of your subscription, so you don't have to buy add-ons for new features. You're continually adding value to it."
"We use InfoSight predictive analytics. It helps us from a performance perspective by identifying potential bottlenecks."
"The most valuable features are its cost-effectiveness, performance, and its deduplication deficiencies."
"The capacity for data storage and compression is good."
"The management software that runs in the cloud is called InfoSight and it is very good. It is similar to machine learning software that monitors your hardware."
"The fact that you can manage the requirements is one the most valuable features of HPE Nimble Storage. The other is the rapid deployment time."
"InfoSight. It's AI for the data center. It's very easy, it does a lot of the work for the customer... InfoSight and the whole system, help them to deal with troubleshooting."
"Mostly, their support is also great at reacting to issues but moreover, proactive to prevent issues."
"This product has good performance."
"Our use cases require more multi-tenant capabilities and additional VLAN interfaces for separating different customers. We currently use it to provide storage, sometimes shared storage, to different customers, but it is less flexible in comparison to a dedicated solution."
"The UI for this solution needs to be improved."
"It is on the expensive side."
"They could add more support for file storage and different types of storage."
"The software layer has to improve."
"There is room for improvement in the pricing of the product."
"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."
"In the future, I would like to see integration with enterprise backup systems."
"There should be faster interfaces."
"There is a new version of the Nimble and 3PAR systems called Alletra and they have a lot of new features."
"The solution that I have is a hybrid, not a full flash. The hybrid version could be improved."
"The only thing I'm really looking for in my next array is some hyperconverged, so if they had something in that space... But I know they have SimpliVity so that is probably not going to happen."
"I would like to see more advanced analytics in the next release of this solution."
"The backup solution that they are using now probably has not been deduped."
"The way the market is going, supporting NVMe storage would be useful as a step up."
"There is no active-active controller, which means that we can only have one controller online at a time."
"InfiniBox, right now, offers only asynchronous replication between two storages."
"The response time for read requests can be improved."
