"NetApp Review"
Cloud storage, data backup, and VM storage are easy to use. Customer service can be problematic, with complex issues taking too long to resolve. Provides nearly unlimited storage solutions and data protection.

"Great Enterprise Data Management"
The UI is highly intuitive and interactive, offering flexible storage options for applications with easy volume creation. Security is excellent, and backups are quick and simple. It performs well even on slow internet connections, helping us migrate applications from bare metal to cloud with minimal changes. However, it's a standalone product that's hard to integrate with third-party apps, and more templates would be useful. We use it for migrating legacy NFS volumes to AWS and as a transition platform for moving file services to OneDrive and SharePoint Online.
E

"Optimize Cloud Costs and Performance"
It offers the flexibility to use cloud compute instances while being managed through NetApp Cloud Manager, helping to reduce storage consumption and significantly lower cloud costs. However, it doesn't support all ONTAP features like disk sanitization and flash pools. We use it as a cloud file storage solution and for NoSQL databases.
S
Senior Software Engineer
"Cloud Control"
Cloud Volumes ONTAP gives me better control over file and block storage in the cloud, allowing me to optimize cost, data protection, and application performance. There are minor limitations with different cloud vendors, but nothing significant. It works as expected and helps deploy cloud volumes with more control over cost and performance, giving full storage control without owning physical equipment.
M
Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)
"Senior System Admin Review"
ONTAP is straightforward to use, and customer support is responsive. I've recently started using it and have found it useful so far, without any issues yet. It provides block storage capabilities.
P
Principal Supply Chain Architect
"Solution Architect Perspective"
I rely on NetApp Cloud Volumes ONTAP to bridge on-prem applications with batch file integration and to link on-prem and cloud solutions. However, setting up new mounts and paths on NAS is cumbersome, and distinguishing between Windows and Linux configurations is tricky. Assigning AD user access and maintaining naming standards adds complexity. Establishing new NAS mounts and folders involves multiple teams: storage team to provision, compatibility setup for Windows or Linux, and security team involvement. I wish it worked universally without such hassle.
A
Admin
"ONTAP Review"
The interface is user-friendly, and the CLI is powerful. Performance, availability, and solutions are well-oriented for NAS. The GUI updates frequently, but the CLI suffices for NAS area solutions.
S
Software Engineer
"Great for Cloud Storage"
I like that data is stored in the cloud instantly without a lengthy process, making file storage organized easily. I can't pinpoint a downside because it's continuously improving, which is positive. It should be faster to help users move and store files more quickly. The key benefit is secure data storage without worry of loss, and accessing large files from any system by signing in.
T
Technical Support Engineer II
"Cloud Data Management Efficiency"
A cloud storage solution that offers secure, efficient handling of diverse workloads and a unified view across multiple clouds. Its deduplication and compression features cut storage costs and improve performance. But it may be challenging for newcomers to cloud or NetApp technologies, and some users find initial setup and configuration difficult. It addresses key needs like multi-cloud data management, security, cost optimization, and streamlining tasks.
C
Cibersecurity specialist
"Cloud Integration and Data Management Review"
Integrates smoothly with major cloud providers, making hybrid and multi-cloud data handling straightforward. The transition to cloud is seamless while still leveraging on-prem benefits. Offers strong data management tools like deduplication, compression, thin provisioning, and tiering to cut costs and boost performance. Prioritizes data safety with replication and snapshot features for solid disaster recovery. However, setting it up requires technical know-how, especially for those new to storage or cloud tech, and there's a learning curve to fully utilize its capabilities. It simplifies managing data across on-prem and cloud, enhances storage efficiency, and provides robust data protection and scalability.
