Overall Satisfaction with Pure Storage FlashArray

Our company was in the market for a new array that would require less time to administer and less technical issues. The Pure Storage FlashArray was the clear winner after vetting out several competitors. Over the last couple of years, we have upgraded and purchased another for DR. In my 30+ years in IT, this has been an array that has delivered and been simple to patch and upgrade. We will continue to be a customer for years to come.
  • Low amount of hands-on maintenance.
  • Replication to another Pure is simple.
  • Patching is a non-event.
  • High price for extra shelves and storage.
  • Positive impact on business cost planning since the data compression has been on target.
  • YOY planning is simplified by adding more shelves each year at a fixed cost.
Pure Storage FlashArray cost was better than the others and offered more features.

Well suited for all array needs even VDI. Also very useful in DR replication since it was fairly easy to configure.
