Why IT leaders are choosing NetApp over Everpure

Don’t let rigid storage hold you back. While Everpure focuses on selling you more hardware, NetApp delivers a unified, software-defined approach that modernizes your operations without disruption.

Security

NetApp is backed by NSA certification, and sets the gold standard for secure storage with hardware and software encryption. It's the most secure storage on the planet.

Everpure fails to meet the NSA certification standards and also lacks hardware-based drive encryption.

Ransomware protection

NetApp delivers unmatched ransomware defense with real-time detection, automated intrusion response, and proactive recovery.

Everpure lacks real-time ransomware detection and depends on third-party tools, leaving critical gaps in protection against modern threats.

Availability

NetApp offers a 100% Data Availability Guarantee for ASA systems, ensuring zero downtime for mission-critical workloads. This eliminates costly disruptions, protects revenue, and preserves business continuity.

Everpure markets its products as having 99.9999% availability, but offers no guarantee or financial penalty to back it up.

Hybrid cloud integration

NetApp leads with native AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud integration, delivering seamless hybrid and multicloud operations via ONTAP.

Everpure's cloud capabilities are limited to a block-only marketplace offering. It doesn't have a native, first-party service.

Data tiering

NetApp Tiering can reduce your primary flash storage needs by up to 80% by seamlessly moving cold data to lower-cost storage. Our efficient snapshot technology captures only incremental changes, optimizing storage capacity while maintaining robust data protection and fast recovery.

Everpure lacks the ability to tier active data from flash to lower-cost media, leaving all your data, even the cold data, on its flash media, leaving businesses with higher costs and less flexibility.

Lowering storage cost

NetApp offers a cost-effective approach by combining spinning disk, hybrid flash, and flash storage to balance performance and affordability. This flexibility allows businesses to optimize costs without compromising performance.

Everpure's all-flash storage model drives up costs, as it lacks the ability to effectively leverage spinning disk or hybrid flash media, making it an expensive option for businesses looking to lower storage expenses.

Flexibility

NetApp offers a wide range of media, any protocol, and any deployment type, eliminating silos and providing a unified solution for all storage needs.

Everpure requires multiple products and vendors to address different storage needs, creating complexity and data silos.

Clustering for scalability and load balancing

NetApp ONTAP clustering enables businesses to scale seamlessly and efficiently balance workloads across systems. This delivers uninterrupted performance and growth without downtime, empowering organizations to meet evolving demands with confidence.

Everpure's FlashArray doesn't support clustering, and therefore can't scale the way most modern architectures can. This hinders business growth and agility.

Frequently asked questions

  1. Step: 01

    How does NetApp’s cost optimization compare to Everpure?

    NetApp optimizes costs with significantly lower TCO through automated tiering. You can move cold data to lower-cost object storage automatically with NetApp, whereas Everpure’s approach locks most of your data on expensive primary flash.

  2. Step: 02

    How is NetApp AI-ready?

    NetApp is AI-ready with a seamless data pipeline for AI, from data preparation to model training and inference. Our high-performance flash storage feeds GPUs efficiently, and our hybrid cloud integration allows you to leverage cloud-based AI services easily—something proprietary on-premises hardware struggles to match.

  3. Step: 03

    Can I manage my hybrid cloud environment from one place with NetApp?

    Absolutely. Managing your hybrid cloud environment is easy with NetApp Console. You get a single control plane to manage, monitor, and protect your data across your data center, AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud.

  4. Step: 04

    How do NetApp’s security capabilities compare to Everpure’s?

    NetApp security has a competitive advantage by building it into the DNA of our software, not adding it as an afterthought or a required integration. We offer real-time, AI-driven ransomware detection and immutable snapshots that allow you to recover petabytes of data in minutes, maintaining business continuity even under attack.
