The data migration tools are excellent. Once you have clusters in Blue XP, everything is easy. It's perfect for the guys in our office who don't understand storage as much because they don't need to go into system manager. They can use BlueXP to drag and drop things instead of configuring things the old way. It's a great graphical difference. BlueXP offers a unified control panel that does just about everything we need right now. Everything is integrated so well.

It's a very expensive product. However, there are no other options if you go ahead with the NetApp product. You can't use other solutions to do this type of activity under NetApp. NetApp does not make it easy for you to integrate with other outside solutions. The speed of the solution could be better. Sometimes it is pretty slow, depending on the environment. In the first few versions, we were not able to browse and look into other storage types that replicated from on-premises. However, they've since updated the software.
