Find out in this report how the two NAS solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Hitachi Virtual Storage Platform 5000 Series exhibits good performance and has good IOPS: 300 IOPS. The technical support for this product is also good."
"In terms of performance and ability, the product can stand up against its competitors since the solution offers two controller systems to users."
"The customer service and support are reasonably good. The environment I work in, there always remains an element of surprise, and there are restrictions. But Hitachi has good technical people."
"It is the most stable high-end solution in this area."
"This is one of the most reliable and dependable products on the market."
"The service provided by Hitachi is good, and I get the IT support I need from the vendors."
"Data optimization, compression, and deduplication are the most important features for us."
"It's a state of the art solution in storage systems. High-availability and performance are the strongest aspects of these machines."
"This is a very flexible solution that you are able to run however you want."
"Their Google operating system is more mature, so their results are much better."
"It has solid performance and provides data locality."
"The most valuable features are the RBAC, role-based access control, and the reporting. NCI also provides a single platform, a single pane with a dashboard, to manage the entire infrastructure. We have complete information about overall utilization, performance, and a forecast for our platform in that single pane."
"In general, being able to patch and not having to pay for SanDisk is the best thing about hyper-converged."
"The most valuable features are simple management and one-click upgrades."
"We have had good feedback from our customers about this solution."
"Its low maintenance is a key feature. It is easy to install, upgrade, and scale by adding more blocks."
"The interface should be simplified and made easier to use."
"The user experience is pretty bad in Hitachi. A lot of mandatory tasks take a long time to work through."
"The snapshot and clone operation functions can be made easier."
"I would like to see an audit account set up such that the user can log in, see the configuration, and see the logs, but they cannot make any changes."
"We moved away from this product because we were looking for an all-flash solution, and with our G1500 at the time, perhaps two years ago, they were just proposing more of the same technology."
"The complex setup, ease of use, and snapshot operations of this product need to be improved."
"Hitachi should offer a distinct overview of the various storage choices."
"Hitachi Vantara has invested heavily in improving their management interface, however, they still have a way to go to catch up with many of their competitors."
"In terms of the IT different categories, I would like for the governing sections to be able to use it in the IT department. If they can have something like a one view management portal or software similar to VMware that would be an added value."
"They need to improve the look and feel of the interface. The functionality is fine, but the appearance could be better."
"There is room to enhance the micro-segmentation."
"The productivity and work efficiency of Nutanix Acropolis AOS could improve."
"They should support more VM, which is not currently supported."
"If they can simplify the software slightly for the installation, that would make all the difference."
"This product would be improved if it included a hybrid cloud solution."
"The One-Click Upgrade process could/should offer the ability to integrate with 3rd party drivers. For example, we use NVIDIA Grid graphics cards. It would be amazing if, during the One-Click Upgrade process, we could "slipstream" additional VIB drivers for ESXi into the upgrade process."
