“The Nimble team is the best support organization I’ve worked with in 20 years of IT.”
"Before Nimble, if we had storage failures, our developers might just as well have sat on their hands while waiting for recovery of, say, 100 gigabits of data from the server. Now, simply recovering from a snapshot, or bringing those developers onto our replicated system, saves the company time and money."
“Aggregate requirements were mounting with our databases, user access, and virtualized servers. Things were not breaking yet, but it was getting to the point where application performance was beginning to degrade.”
"Although the reason we went with Nimble Storage was to support VDI and improve application performance — a great side benefit for us was the dramatic cost savings compared to our previous storage platform. Better performance at a lower price is a rare combination for any IT solution."
"With the old system we were using two racks of infrastructure for storage. Now, we are using less than half a rack and our capacity is much greater. Before we had 100 terabytes and were running out of space. Now we are sitting on a quarter of our total capacity. This has given us a huge degree of comfort."
"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."
“Nimble has proven to be vastly simpler to administer and manage. We can see the details of everything from performance and disks to the caching and IOPS. It allows us to very easily monitor and manage the system.”
"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."
"One of the big attractions for us was the fact that Nimble was using flash as a front-end cache for frequently accessed data."
"Nimble has simplified storage management and upgrades to the point it is essentially ‘set it up and forget it.’ For a lean IT department like ours without a dedicated storage administrator— that benefit alone is worth its weight in gold."
"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.”
“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.”
“Nimble is thinking outside the box. The storage market is evolving quickly, and Nimble is the ‘leader of the pack’ with their approach and how they use the technology.”
"With Nimble, the economics of storage are vastly in our favor. I once said that if we could get the functionality, performance and operational stability we needed, but with a significant reduction in TCO that we’ve seen with Nimble, it wouldn’t be a home run, but a grand slam."
"It was great for us to find a device capable of providing primary storage, snapshotting, and offsite replicated backups, all in one easy system."
