- "My advice to anybody who is considering OceanStor Dorado is that it is a very reliable solution with good features."
- "The most valuable feature of this solution is the price to performance ratio."
- "There are very few features that are not available in this program: it has compression, it has duplication, it has a clone, it has the alternator, it has replication, it has the CAP, it has everything and very low latency, all integrated into one system."
Huawei OceanStor Dorado needs improvements in NAS capability and disk speed. Integration with VMware VVols 2.0 and management of non-Huawei systems could be enhanced. There are compatibility issues with some operating systems, AIX connectivity problems, and incomplete cloud integration. The user interface could be more user-friendly, and there are challenges with data compression and deduplication. Pricing is complex with over 12 licenses, and security features against ransomware could be improved.
- "There are some limitations to this product because they do not have unified storage."
- "The logistics can be improved because sometimes we have to wait a long time for the product to be delivered, despite there being stores available in Europe."
- "The speeds of the disks themselves need to be faster. The disks are not flash."
