"With flexible storage arrays and a highly responsive design, Nimble Storage has proven to be a great partner for Ask’s growing storage needs and will be critical to supporting our future needs as well."

“In retail, everything happens so quickly. From one day to the next, we don’t know where we are going to be or how the company may expand. Expansion is always on the horizon for us. But we know that if we do acquire another company or develop future brands, we …

“I haven’t had to touch the Nimble since it went into production. It is really easy to manage and it has been problem free. You plug it in, set it up, and it just works — it’s been ticking away faultlessly.”

"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 …

"It almost seems like Nimble designed and built the arrays specifically for the needs of our organization. I really appreciate that!"

"Storage is no longer the bottleneck that it used to be. With other systems, you have to schedule backups and make sure you don’t ever fall into a ‘lag timeframe’ between the time you dump the data on the appliance and the time you actually dedupe it. But with Nimble, …

"The spectacular ROI result was a huge surprise. I kicked myself for not doing something about the issue in the years prior. But the traditional SAN array usually means sending someone away for weeks training and the configuration of it can be quite a long and arduous project of itself."

"We have deployed 300 VDI users, improved performance, spent less time managing storage, and we have an improved business continuity plan, all at lower costs than we ever imagined."

"We were looking for a storage array that could cope with our rising data volumes and the company’s planned expansion into new markets. Nimble delivered exactly what was required."

"By moving data to the Nimble arrays, our storage IOPS limitations simply went away. Our customers’ Oracle environments are now running 60% faster and we are experiencing much lower latency on the VMware hosts."

"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."

"Nimble has given us redundancy and disk savings through compression. All our data is protected to a higher level and although we are only using about a quarter of the total disk space at present because we haven’t migrated all our data yet, we are already saving around 1.5 terabytes …

"To be honest, after seeing the Nimble arrays in action, the product really sold itself."

“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.”

"“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 …
