“Our research organization falls between the cracks for most storage vendors, with giant imaging sets and millions of tiny genetic sequencing scraps. Finding a system that reasonably handled all our complex workflows was difficult, and in the end only QF2 was the right fit.”

“Our closed-circuit television (CCTV) network is all about keeping an eye on what’s happening around the city from a safety perspective."

“I like partners to show the same level of customer interest and desire for execution that I have, and Qumulo’s team offers that in spades.”

“From the moment we installed it, the Qumulo cluster has been rock solid. I spend zero time managing the system, and that’s my metric for good storage: I don’t ever want to see it. I just set up my notifications and monitoring, every now and then do a quick health …

“If we have a long-term timeframe where we know we’re not going to use QF2, we terminate it and we tell the Qumulo support team. We’ve learned that we should tell them when we’re turning it off because they monitor it so nicely that, otherwise, when we do terminate it, …

“We use a custom AMI that has some internal automation. For that, we use CloudFormation. It gets itself on the network, mounts the Qumulo storage, sets up the Deadline Slaves, and a few other things. Right now, we start and terminate the QF2 instances manually.”

“We had compared the cost of Qumulo’s system against those of its high-end competitors, and frankly, the cost difference was ridiculously wide.”

“Replicating files between our two data centers used to take days and now takes less than a minute. It’s a 2000X improvement, and takes risk out of my organization."

“We inevitably get questions about why a given HPC compute node is slow, and it had always been assumed to be the storage. For every other storage system I’ve used, it was nearly impossible to determine the truth. With Qumulo, I can just pop into the console and say ‘oh, …

“Qumulo has given us insight on our systems and storage that we just didn’t have before.”

“Innovative and effective, with very thoughtful engineering.”

“It almost makes me suspicious how easy this is to use. There’s just one panel to check, a click of a button or two, typing in a name, and that’s it. I was very impressed with that. Very impressed.”

“I liked Qumulo’s ability to take complex data and put it into a simple GUI that lets you see various elements in real-time.”

“It’s used as an archival system so that we can go back and review what has happened in the past around an incident."

“What has us really excited about Qumulo is that now we can quickly determine what to save and what can be archived. That gives us a level of visibility into our data and storage that we just didn’t have before.”
