83 HPE Nimble Storage Testimonials

"Every once in a while in IT, you find a product that promises everything you have been looking for to address a certain challenge. Even more unusual is finding a product that actually delivers on that promise — which is exactly what Nimble does."

"“On the day the Nimble arrays went live our performance problems went away. It was instant. In IT you never get any praise, but we stopped getting complaints."

"Even though we really hammer our Nimble arrays – they always come out without a scratch!"

"We got big storage savings with a solution that was less than the price other vendors were looking for. The management console is very easy to use. We don’t need certification or lots of training to use the storage array. Performance has nearly doubled ever since we moved off the old array and quite frankly, it’s a lightweight and easy-to-use solution."

“I don’t want my storage tool to just dump a lot of disjointed, tabular data in front of me and tell me I’m on my own. Nimble Storage InfoSight turns all of that raw data into valuable information that I can actually use."

"“We decided to adopt Nimble because of its simplicity. It is easy to use and it has excellent compression technology. It is also much cheaper than other storage solutions because you don’t have to buy additional licenses for different functionality. Replication and backup are already bundled in the machines, so they come for free."

"Staff have been able to access their drives and file shares a lot faster. Now, we have the ability to add additional data quickly without bringing the storage down. It has provided improved functionality and increased performance."

"The CS220G consumed just three rack units (RU), down from 8RU taken by the old system, while delivering a 270 percent improvement in throughput and staggering performance improvement in both random write (3,700%) and random read (1,100%) workloads."

"The IOPS for the Nimble is three times better that our previous storage SAN. We have also noticed faster boot times for all of our critical servers, and our students and faculty have experienced a 33 percent improvement in login times for their productivity and school applications."

"We can now do everything we were doing with 42U of Compellent with just 6U of Nimble Storage."

“Previously there was a lot of storage to maintain. Now we only have one system to manage and we actually don’t really need to monitor it because Nimble’s service team do it for us through the InfoSight portal. I think we made a very good choice. For our budget, our needs and for the ease of use, Nimble has done a great job.”

"One of the big attractions for us was the fact that Nimble was using flash as a front-end cache for frequently accessed data."

"With the Nimble CS260, we have reduced physical space from three quarters of a rack to the space consumed by a single server (three rack units) — a 75 percent space reduction — without causing any performance issues. We’ve also benefited from the equivalent power savings and cooling demands."

"Nimble suited us in a number of ways: it’s effi cient in the way it stores information; its ability to snapshot and replicate data across multiple locations. We liked the product and its performance because it has the simplicity we were after. Importantly it also meant that Nimble would save on maintenance costs."

"We really liked the design of Nimble’s technology and the use of flash storage to speed up responses. The hardware replication was good and so was the compression. We looked at a few different compression technologies during the review as a way of optimising our storage, but we really liked Nimble’s approach. The other thing about Nimble that impressed us was their whole support strategy."
