Return on Investment
- Pure Storage FlashArray has had a great impact on our databases and applications. SQL jobs that used to take hours now take minutes - which has allowed our company to move new product offerings forward faster.
- The ease of use of Pure Storage FlashArray has allowed our Storage Admins to focus on other duties and not have to "babysit" the SAN.
Return on Investment
- [Pure Storage has turned] days and hours into seconds and minutes. We are dramatically more productive from development to servicing our clients.
- Consistent costs.
- No down time for upgrades and maintenance.
Return on Investment
- We have moved from a couple of older XtremIOs and a Unity array to 2 Pure arrays. This has saved us a great deal in power, as well as rack space, etc.
- In addition to our savings our end users have been impressed with performance.

Return on Investment
- Implementation of this array has greatly increased our database performance, along with all VM performance overall. This increased I/O performance has been a great improvement for our line of business applications.
March 23, 2021
Return on Investment
- We have been able to expand our storage at a great cost savings and still benefit from SSD speeds

March 23, 2021
Return on Investment
- When compared to what we have had to pay to get into some of our legacy storage arrays, Pure Storage has already put us in the black. The ROI writes itself when implementing a Pure FA.
- We have been able to scale back the need for a specific storage array admin, as our whole team can administrate a Pure FA due to its simplicity and ease of use.
Return on Investment
- Positive improvement in speed and deployment of VMs
- Good ROI if priced over 5 years +
Return on Investment
- The price per GB for an emerging market is too high.

March 23, 2021
Return on Investment
- The performance of the application has increased dramatically after we started using the All Flash Array.
- Overall SQL licensing cost reduced due to better latency and IOPS.
- We got more Data reduction and compression on array than what was promised
- Performance of storage is rock solid
- its been more than 3 years and not disruption noticed during firmware upgrade
June 15, 2021
Return on Investment
- We basically handed off support to Pure themselves so that already frees up a lot of our engineers' time.
- The contract was based on the previous storage solution, so Pure had to throw in some extra storage for free which obviously adds value to the solution.
March 26, 2021
Return on Investment
- The most positive impact has been the predictability of support costs beyond the 3-year mark. One year of EMC support after year 5 on our previous array was more expensive than THREE YEARS on our Pure Storage M20 (now and M50) array, AND it included the new controllers at the beginning of year 4.
- Reduction in power consumption for heating/cooling of the data center as well as general power just to run the array has also been a massive improvement since moving to all-flash with Pure.
March 25, 2021
Return on Investment
- The level of data reduction that we saw with our VDI workloads exceeded expectations and brought down the per/GB cost of the disk even lower than anticipated, resulting in greater cost savings over our previous storage solution.
- Better visibility to our workload in terms of performance, growth, etc.
- Evergreen controller upgrade was performed with zero downtime and extended the useful life of our system.
Return on Investment
- So far the overall investment has definitely been worth it.
- We are looking into using this product in more areas since it has resolved issues we were having with our large databases and the lack of flexibility we had due to speed.
June 11, 2021
Return on Investment
- We never have storage performance issues.
- The array was set it and forget it, admin time can be spent on other areas of the business.
April 21, 2021
Return on Investment
- Initial procurement costs were high, but it was expected since we were replacing all of our storage arrays at all the datacenters. Pure was very aggressive in pricing to make sure we were able to replace our environment with enough space to grow
April 01, 2021
Return on Investment
- Scalability.
- Reliable.
March 29, 2021
Return on Investment
- In our commercial objectives, Pure Storage FlashArray is a positive impact since the queries to the database are really fast now.
