Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It's a good product. Virtualization on it is good."
"I have found the compression capability the most valuable feature."
"Technical support has been helpful."
"It was not complex to deploy."
"One of the main features that attract customers to buy their products is the great management tool and almost zero failure rate, making it easy to use."
 

Cons

"It can have more automation. In addition, Fujitsu should have a broader portfolio, not specifically in terms of the service solutions, but more in terms of the big picture. A broader portfolio would be nice for providing different solutions for the customers."
"The initial setup of Fujitsu Primergy BX400 Series was complex."
"An area where the product lacks and needs to consider improvement is by allowing it to integrate with some AI tool for monitoring."
"For improvements, the iDRAC application isn't very intuitive to handle."
"The product’s cost needs improvement."
"The reliability needs improvement."
"The need to update the firmware and check if there is any bug in the product is one of the areas where Dell PowerEdge C falls short and needs to make improvements."
"They could automate or simplify it more."
"The price must be improved."
"A feature that needs to be added is the ability for full container storage."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"No license is required to operate the product."
"There are special licenses that are connected to the usage. We installed Fujitsu Primergy BX400 Series for a high PC solution, and for this reason, some Microsoft licenses and other special licenses were embedded or bundled to the Fujitsu solution."
"PowerEdge C is a product that is priced at a medium range, so it is not too expensive."
"I would rate the pricing 4 out of 10, in terms of its cost expense."
"The price could be reduced."
"We buy licenses for the solution's advanced features."
"There is a need to pay towards the annual subscription-based licensing model offered by the solution. The product is moderately priced. Price is a critical issue, and it is always good to have moderately priced solutions."
"When we talk about pricing it is the cheapest on the market that I have found."
"The product costs can be high, especially for disks and other components."
"I don't handle the financial aspects, so I don't know the exact costs, but in terms of the value it brings, it's worth it."
