In terms of NetApp products, I've worked on seven earlier and now mainly onto the cluster mode devices. I've worked on multiple heterogeneous storage monitoring tools such as EMC ViPR SRM, NetApp OnCommand Insight, OnCommand Unified Manager, and even work automation and other related tools. I would love to give NetApp OnCommand Insight full marks or a perfect rating, but I'm giving it a nine out of ten. I've analyzed multiple tools and I need to give suggestions to the customer to do the POC, and I also need to identify the differences within the multiple tools, so I evaluate five or six different tools for heterogeneous storage monitoring, alerting, and reporting, and then there's NetApp OnCommand Insight.

OCI is a very strong product, it has so many features and a handful of features that are really good, such as analytics and the reporting. We are not yet using the machine-learning features of this solution but we would like to. One feature we are using is the ServiceNow integration for infrastructure mapping but we're facing some troubles with it. ServiceNow has recently implemented sending an automated trigger or incident creation to ServiceNow from NetApp, and we are facing trouble due to the APIs. In terms of MTTR, we haven't calculated it yet, since it's not in production. We have only done the PoC. We have plans to implement, or at least evaluate, products like StorageGRID and FlexPool. If a colleague was concerned about being burned by legacy storage management products that don't work as promised, I would tell him to migrate to the cloud. It's a better way to manage the data. We can't escape on-prem. Legacy is one of the best use cases for on-prem, but cold data could be moved to the cloud. OCI is one of NetApp's best products. I would rate it at nine out of ten.

NetApp is a major player. You should look into them. Their service around the world is incredible along with their support. OCI is moving at light speed. They are doing a good job on the trends. I am looking at he NFS in the cloud and Cloud Volumes.
If you are using legacy products, you should upgrade. Look into different solutions. This is one of the best solutions out there. However, each company has their different standards and requirements. Our company does use ServiceNow as part of our infrastructure mapping. This is a very good product. I give it a thumbs up.

I would rate this solution a ten because of its ability to integrate with multiple systems. 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. OCI is by far a really nice product as compared to competitors. I know that this solution is better than others.
NetApp OnCommand Insight management software delivers consistent insight across your data center so you can monitor and manage your hybrid IT multivendor storage, compute, and switching infrastructures.
I would rate OnCommand Insight eight out of ten.

IBM is very stable, but I prefer NetApp because it's more stable and secure.

Absolutely go with this solution. I manage the team using the product, but I don't have hands-on experience with it.
