83 HPE Nimble Storage Testimonials

"We found Nimble Storage to quite simply be the best value for money in terms of its price versus performance but that value was enhanced even more with additional features and services offered such as InfoSight.”

"The fact that we have so many different workloads running on one SAN is astounding. And the ability to reach our storage goals with such a small number of disks is simply stunning."

“The Nimble solutions were compelling. They offered better performance and support than the others and were definitely less expensive. But what really sold me on Nimble was the remote management and support. They would monitor the system and know about any problems before I did. If any issues arose, they would alert me. This meant I wouldn’t have to have a dedicated storage person.”

"Everything appears to respond a lot quicker. On top of that, we’re not even using 30 per cent of the total capacity of the arrays because of Nimble’s compression."

“We had high expectations of Nimble’s innovative product to begin with, and the successful proof-of-concept confirmed the deliverables we needed could easily be attained. Performance and budgetary figures were quickly validated, and switching to Nimble made good business sense."

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

"We don’t spend time babysitting our backups anymore. With Nimble, data protection is robust and reliable, and the management overhead is almost zero. If we do look at the Nimble console during a backup, it’s just for curiosity’s sake, not because we need to!"

"The average response time for SAP requests immediately dropped from 1,400U on NetApp’s product to under 400U on the Nimble platform. Our SAP users went from wanting to hang me, to wanting to thank me!"

"A modestly skilled IT person who has read the administration guide and had some practice time on the Web interface can be very functional at managing the Nimble array."

“We set out to find a solution that provided the performance and scale required to support our 106,000 residents in a timely manner. Public service and safety are issues we take seriously so our evaluation process needed to be extremely comprehensive. The performance of next-generation storage systems are above and beyond our legacy storage, but there were several factors that led us to selecting Nimble – namely ease-of-use, InfoSight predictive analytics and the Timeless Storage support guarantee.”

"With the space-efficient Nimble snapshots, we have been able to increase the product portfolio we offer to our customers, resulting in more revenue for our organisation and longer retention periods for our clients."

"With our former SAN, I felt that performance was lagging, but I couldn’t gain any visibility into the SAN to actually verify what was going on."

"We had been very impressed with the performance of a small entry level Nimble SAN we had previously purchased. After reviewing the market, other customer feedback and along with our experience of our existing Nimble SAN, we felt confident in making further investment to support our entire production environment and we’re extremely pleased with the results."

"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."

“Nimble blew away the competition. At the outset we achieved approximately 15 times the performance of our previous systems, and substantially greater performance than other systems we had considered. And we’re getting data compression of 40 percent across the board. That’s phenomenal.”
