“Hitachi VSP G700 Provides Reliable Performance But Lacks Unified Management Platform”

4.0
Mar 30, 2026
I have been using Hitachi VSP G700 for the last 5 years now. I have never experienced any performance degradation or outage. Also, no disk failure detected till date. It has separate HNAS controllers as well as HNAS management tool which makes it difficult to manage NAS and SAN from multiple management tool, not a single platform to manage both NAS and SAN. For universal Data replication from DC to DR site, it needs to be configured with separate journal pool at both sites which is a challenge sometimes.

“G1000 assessment from 2015”

Jun 25, 2020
The transformation program was not as simple as the vendor had indicated.The non disruptive migration at the time was quite com-lex and intrusive. The vendor did not apply the co9rrect due dilligence therefore we had platforms unable to be deployed due to incompatibility
