"The storage has been good."

"Dell PowerVault is user-friendly and easy to deploy."

"For us, the initial setup was easy."

"The initial setup was easy and simple."

"I am impressed with the tool's technical alliance with Veeam and Veritas."

"While the challenges posed by the difficulties were significant, they prompted the replacement of problematic components, resulting in the resolution of issues. Importantly, there were no substantial ongoing concerns. Regarding the overall performance, it has been consistently excellent."

"If the solution came with a synchronous application, it would be particularly advantageous for small businesses operating across multiple sites."

"Dell PowerVault is block-oriented storage only."

"The tool needs to improve its UI."

"I would like to see improvements made to the user interface."

"We could set up the installation through a web server, but it's not very reactive on the web server. For example, when you launch a task, and you don't know exactly if the task has begun or if the task is in progress, or if it's finished. You have to wait for three to five to ten minutes to be sure that the task is running or in progress or finished. So at that point, it's not very good."

"I would like Dell to improve on the configuration of the disk groups. Only one group is expandable. Once you configure the other disk group types, you cannot expand them. It limits scalability. If you want maybe to grow a disk group, you lose information, and then you need to build it up again, which is not a good use case for customers."

"Sometimes integrating into a cluster can be difficult as you have to do it manually."

"PowerVault could be improved by increasing its memory cache capacity and adding the ability to export data to the cloud."

"The product needs to improve performance while scaling out. It also needs to improve stability."

"Perhaps the most notable area for enhancement lies in the web interface for management. The current limitations in LDAP editing capabilities are not addressed in the UI, and I haven't observed any recent updates. It's possible that the new version of the DXI service incorporates improvements in the GUI, but I cannot confirm. While there is room for improvement in the current GUI, it remains a relatively minor issue. Overall, the system is comprehensive, covering aspects such as reports on latency and networking, leaving little room for additional enhancements in those areas."

"They are offering a wide range of support models for the customers such as basic support that is budget-friendly, but they also provide a professional support solution that is a bit costly"

"The price of Dell PowerVault could be reduced. It is more expensive than some IBM solutions."

"I rate the solution's pricing a seven to eight out of ten."

"The cost, compared to other solutions, is on the higher end."

"The product is inexpensive."

"Dell PowerVault's price is the tool's main attraction."

"The solution is more cost-effective than the competitors. It’s an affordable option for small businesses."

"I rate Dell PowerVault a six or seven out of ten for pricing."

"I do not oversee this aspect, as pricing is contingent on factors such as volume, technical specifications, and the desired features. Consequently, I lack information on the pricing details and structure."
