We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The most valuable feature of Dell APEX for us is data availability, ensuring data resiliency and offering protection in case of data loss."
"The most valuable features of the solution are that the support is really good and the deployment is really easy."
"The two key factors are ease of deployment and flexibility in utilizing and configuring storage as needed."
"The speed of the product is quite a bit better in performance than the previous peer environment we were running on, and it seems to have a better feature set."
"The speed of the product is quite a bit better in performance than the previous environment we were running on, and it seems to have a better feature set."
"The Evergreen program is excellent, and the pricing is quite reasonable. My friends who work there are doing very well and consistently achieving strong results. Like any company, they experience occasional downturns but perform impressively overall."
"We have snapshots. We put snapshots on disks, and we can save information. In the case of ransomware, everything is in the snapshot. We have a snapshot lock on it, so it's safe."
 

Cons

"There needs to be some improvement in the response time of the tool's support team."
"In Latin America, they need to add more services to complement the solution and provide more options for managing the environment as some customers prefer not having responsibility for infrastructure."
"Dell APEX needs a dedicated support channel to raise support tickets easily."
"They all need to work on their pricing because you always want to get more for less."
"To me, I think it's a little expensive. Then again, you get what you pay for."
"I'm not sure if any improvements are needed."
"It would be nice to have support in Swedish."
"The only potential drawback is that Pure Storage might be overkill if you don't need microsecond response times."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Right now, I don't have the details of the tool's cost, but the price depends on the size of the company and what kind of services you want from the solution. There are some additional costs attached to the tool."
