|---|---|---|
| Chief Consultant and Architect at Tahir Professional Services | 5.0 | I find Vblock a stable, centrally managed solution that avoids headaches. However, I wish its different components had truly unified management and that technical support communication was better. |
| Senior System Specialist at Burns & McDonnell | 4.0 | I've used VBlock for ten years as a reliable, highly available virtualization host. Setup was easy, and support is good, but paid support is expensive. I want a smaller footprint and better disk performance. It's aging, though. |
| Sr Private Cloud Engineer at a pharma/biotech company with 10,001+ employees | 4.5 | I find this integrated, plug-and-play solution easy to deploy, though user control and scalability are limited. Upgrades should be simpler, and I'd like a hypervisor. Support is good, but newer solutions offer more features. |
| Senior System Specialist at Burns & McDonnell | 4.5 | Our VBlock system offers rock-solid reliability and performs well for diverse workloads, streamlining our infrastructure with its compatibility matrix. While largely satisfied, I'm concerned about its future post-Dell acquisition. |
| Senior IT Architect - Enterprise at a manufacturing company with 1,001-5,000 employees | 4.0 | I find this solution offers excellent component integration and stability, easing maintenance. However, it's expensive, and its integration with other vendors' products is inflexible, requiring attention to compatibility and licensing, particularly in complex environments. |
| Technical Consultant/Instructor at SIGMA IT | 4.0 | I found the solution attractive for its rapid, bundled deployment and single-vendor support, ideal for modern data centers. However, I noted its high cost and current lack of KVM hypervisor support. |
| Solutions Manager at a tech services company with 201-500 employees | 3.5 | I find this solution offers easy operation, speed, and good support, consolidating IT from previous multi-vendor environments. However, it's quite expensive, has a complex initial setup, and needs clearer licensing, along with improved switching and VDI options. |
| Manager, Supply Chain Application Development at a retailer with 1,001-5,000 employees | 4.5 | We upgraded our infrastructure, achieving measurable performance gains and improved business information delivery. We are very satisfied, though tighter alignment among teams would speed up implementation. |
