Helps improve security, latency, and our speed to market

Pros

"The latency and the security are the most valuable features of Dell PowerStore."

Cons

"Dell PowerStore can improve the integration with VMware."

It has a very strong NAS that can support a lot of big, heavy environments

Pros

"It provides a big benefit when upgrading a new VMware environment. For example, in a big environment with 10 to 30 ESXs, you can take everything and put that into PowerStore. So, it is cost-effective, which is very important and has been massive for us. You reduce almost 80% from the hardware and work directly from PowerStore. Building hardware, especially in a big VMware environment, is a big issue for my organization."

Cons

"The storage could be improved. I would like a feature for how to best secure an appliance and the storage since we are connecting the container to the public cloud. I would like them to develop another level of security, making it more secure than from what they have now. "

Reduces the footprint, is easy to use, and can handle heavy workloads

Pros

"The simplicity and ease of use have been very valuable features. I have a very small team, and only half of the team is well versed in the HP product. Whereas if I bring PowerStore in, everyone can learn it because it will be new on the floor."

Cons

"Reporting is an area that could be improved. It's very simplistic sometimes, and some of the very technical guys on my team want to see more of the details and be able to massage the report a little bit better."

Significantly saved on rack space, power, and cooling

Pros

"The biggest improvement we found when moving into Dell PowerStore was the deduplication and compression."

Cons

"Sometimes, you have to go back and forth with the technical support team, where they want you to do something you've already done."

Easy to implement and extend with good reliability

Great replication and deduplication with helpful new features about to come out

Pros

"Currently, the features of replication and deduplication have been very important to us."

Cons

"It was very new when we first deployed it a year ago. Even the upgrade processes and knowing what to expect, as well as documentation, could be more robust. "

Straightforward with great snapshots and no complicated configuration

Pros

"There is no complicated configuration for queries and calls. You just create a model and go."

Cons

"The pricing could be lower. It is very expensive."

A solution offering exceptional stability to its users along with an extremely efficient technical support team

Pros

"The solution's technical support is excellent. I rate the technical support a ten out of ten."

Cons
