Customer service for Tintri VMstore T7000 is mixed, with responsiveness in crises but inconsistent knowledge, especially on older products.
Rather than Pure just saying it's Cisco's problem, call Cisco, they actually got on with a TAC engineer and talked us through it.
The guys in South Africa, and they're very, very good.
What I like about Pure Storage technical support is that when you enter a request, you immediately get a response.

Paul Pearson - PeerSpot reviewer
Works well, is easy to implement, and has upgrade analysis capabilities
We love the product. Pure Storage works really well. The CAT tool and also the ability to upgrade the unit's place grades are great. It allows for in-place control or upgrades. It's a very simple implementation. They have a good tool to analyze upgrades. The stability is good. Technical support has been excellent.

Has a fantastic feature-set and works well with workflow solutions
I would suggest, if you heavily depend on the Oracle solution from the database you should consider Oracle All-Flash because, from my understanding, it is from a single OEM, it's a single solution. It would be a homogeneous environment. I think it would be definitely a better option for customers considering other all-flash storages. It would be better if you consider a solution from Oracle, from the database studio, the storage part. I would rate it an eight out of ten. To make it a perfect ten, in the next release, I would like for it to be NVMe compliant storage.
John Ruggeri - PeerSpot reviewer
We were able to push a button—it really is that simple—and flip primary and secondary storage locations
Our biggest bump was going from the 4x software to 5x software and getting them to understand the nuances of how we did real-time replication. They have an automated failover that requires a third-party server to be a watchman over the storage cluster, which is very common. When we were doing that upgrade, it turns out we didn't need that. We were doing manual failovers but we still installed that watchman because we thought we needed it to do our upgrade from 4x to 5x. But once we got it up to 5x, we never had to tell our existing replication settings to use the watching node and to do automated failover. It took multiple phone calls and conversations until we finally got to our local sales engineer who has known the product for a longer period of time than some of the support people we were dealing with to clear up that inconsistency.
