Overall Satisfaction with IBM FlashSystem

Used across the entire business where we have a SAP ECC production environment running on devices connected to IBM Power Systems. Storage devices are exceptionally fast using NVMe Flash disks/arrays and are therefore achieving greater compression ratios by using on-board hardware compression accelerators. Even out read/write operations are faster than before which generally spends up a whole host of business functions.
  • Excellent support structure from IBM
  • Integration of the system with a host of midrange devices is super easy
  • GUI is intuitive and easy to navigate between models.
  • Some of the connective functionality with the IBM storage insights software is lacking.
  • IBM need to focus more specifically on their existing issues, rather than always seem to be pushing the bigger and newer versions.
  • Sped up operational time
  • Saved on hardware costs
  • Integrated encryption enables us to work with data more securely
Not compared against others.
It is well suited as a reliable and fast workhorse. It has a high level of integrated encryption and works well with the functionality straight out the box so well suited when you need something that works and works well quite quickly.
