“Right now, QF2 is the closest thing to an Apple unboxing, setup, and support experience in the storage world.”

"At DreamWorks, we are a digital manufacturer and digital media files are the core asset of our business. During the production of a major animated motion picture, we often create in excess of 500 million media files. If storage fails to perform, the creativity stalls. QF2 gives us the speed …

“Data is the currency and lifeblood of scientific research. We needed to respond to the concerns of exponential data growth, how to store and present data in an intuitive and non-intrusive way, and how to manage and protect stored data without impacting daily operations.”

"I’m happy to say that Qumulo has made me look very good to my management and I appreciate it."

“Other vendors claim to ‘scale up’ storage, but there’s a fundamental difference with Qumulo: the ability to linearly scale capacity and performance. Every time I add a node I’m adding network bandwidth and I/O operations, not just a tray of disks, and that’s critical for us.”

“Everything was installed in minutes. This was incredible.”

“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 …

“Managing data with Qumulo is so simple it’s hard to describe the impact. It’s given us tremendous ROI in terms of time saved and problems eliminated, and having that reliable storage we can finally trust makes us eager to use it more broadly throughout the company.”

“Not many of the systems we looked at met our requirements. The few that did were expensive and complex, and our cybersecurity team did not feel they were secure enough."

“Before we had a number of different storage systems, and it got really cumbersome and clunky. With Qumulo it’s great to have everything in one place while supporting multiple workflows. The speed is noticeably faster and makes the digital services team’s jobs easier and more efficient.”

“In the past few years several major library systems have experienced disruptions due to network security attacks. Keeping data safe and avoiding service interruptions are a top priority for us."

“Honestly, I have never seen the type of reaction that I saw from customers in those first Qumulo meetings. Every single one wanted to buy – it was merely a question of when and how much.”
