Overall Satisfaction with EMC VNX

EMC VNX is one of the primary storage arrays that is used across the whole organization. It provides the storage platform that all corporate servers are running on.
  • Stable platform.
  • Good support.
  • It occupies a large floor space in the data center.
  • Unisphere management interface uses Java, which is problematic to run.
  • Due to its stability, it is very rare to have downtime—meaning business operations are not interrupted from an infrastructure level.
  • Support and maintenance can be expensive.
EMC VNX is currently EOL, so we are in the process of migrating to EMC Unity and VMAX. We stayed with the EMC portfolio of storage solutions due to their proven record and history of good performance.
With the VNX being EOL and the emergence of EMC Unity, I would suggest using EMC Unity instead.
