Storage Engineer at Movate4.5I use Nexenta for file systems as its NAS solution is flexible and secure, featuring Fusion. It's a well-established, updated product with resolved SMB issues. I prefer it over Panzura, despite Panzura's superior snapshot feature.
Network Administrator at a financial services firm with 51-200 employees2.5Initially, this SAN offered great value and performance, consolidating our workloads effectively despite needing tweaks. However, support deteriorated significantly. I would now advise exploring newer storage options instead.
