Gives an end-to-end view of your environment and has a very good interface for report creation and customization

Pros

"What I found most valuable in NetApp OnCommand Insight is that it gives me a complete view of the environment, particularly an end-to-end view. I can locate my searches and view my storage devices. I can also find my recent servers and other host devices. I can then map all those into a single view, so that I can learn about the performance of my devices, or if there's a bottleneck at a particular place. I like that I can view all those information in NetApp OnCommand Insight. I like that very much. I also like that NetApp OnCommand Insight has a very good interface that allows you to create and customize reports, and it also offers a bundle of reports as well."

Cons

"NetApp OnCommand Insight is a pretty good tool, and the only concern I have with it is the price. Its price is quite high and could be improved because the licensing feature of this particular tool is on a per GB basis instead of the price being for the complete tool itself. The more you discover, the more you need to pay, and this makes NetApp OnCommand Insight more costly when compared to other tools which are available in the market."

These products are extremely durable and last over time. They are designed to take a beating.

Pros

"I am very happy with the stability. When your customers don't notice anything wrong, that's the biggest win for a product. "

Cons

"When we first went to Cluster Mode, we had a lot of problems. Setup took a few months. We had people onsite, including one of the top guys from NetApp for a while. Going from 7-Mode to Cluster Mode was rough. "

Significantly improved our mean time to resolution, give us the ability to integrate with multiple systems

Pros

"This gives me better performance numbers and gives me more information about where my loopholes are, where I need to target my customers, where I need to go back and retain storage. "

Cons

"A little bit more from technical support would give us a little bit more insight."

The key is being able to get a visual overview of the environment, see if a node is being hammered or a storage is filling up

Pros

"Being able to immediately look at my data. See the sizing, where I'm at on different virtual machines. "

Cons

"You can build those out, but initially when you bring up the dashboard, that was one thing they couldn't take away. They couldn't change that. It just looks kind of kludgy. I'd like it to look a lot more clean when I first login. "

It gives us the ability to look at our storage and figure out what we are doing with it

Pros

"Once we gathered and saw what we were doing with everything, we saved close to a petabyte worth of data by being able to delete old data and move stuff around. Thus, we became more efficient."

Cons

"The initial setup is complex. There is a lot of stuff to set up. I had to teach my guys a lot of things, so there was a lot of learning."
