I would suggest to look at the ROI. If you need something that's extremely reliable, very easy to manage, has fantastic support from the vendor, and you can afford it, I would definitely recommend it. Unless all your requirements are solely based on throughput, it may not be the solution for you. But if you need something that you can manage with a minimal number of people and it's going to provide you with an extremely reliable, well-supported, and robust infrastructure, then I would definitely recommend it. For us, reliability is the most important aspect. I'd have to give this solution a nine out of ten. Over the eight years we've been using NetApp with ONTAP, we've never lost a bit of data, and we've only experienced a few minutes of downtime in that entire time.
My recommendation of the product to others depends on the project, the solution needed, and the budget of the customer. I rate the overall solution an eight out of ten.
I rate the solution a nine out of ten. The solution is good, but the initial setup process can be improved. I recommend the solution to new users depending on their projects.

Make sure that everything is ready from the customer's side, such as the management network. If you're using SAN, make sure that this only is working parallel with the customer because you have to provide the VPNs from the storage and you must have the host also already. I would rate NetApp NVMe AFF A800 a ten out of ten.
In summary, this is a good product, it is serving our purpose well, I am satisfied with it, and I absolutely recommend it for others. At this point, I can't see any requirements that need to have functionality or capabilities added. I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.
We're just customers and end-users. We don't have a business relationship with the company. I'm not sure which version of the solution we're using. Overall, I would rate the solution at an eight out of ten. The ease of use and flexibility are great, however, it loses points due to its relatively high cost.
Flash storage is a data storage technology that delivers high-speed, programmable memory. It is called flash storage because of the speed at which it writes data and performs input/output (I/O) operations.
