Senior Sells at ITVIKINGS
Has improved compliance tracking and reduced recovery time for on-premise environments
The product includes a compliance management feature. Through the Dell account manager, customization is made, as the automated orchestration feature in the product helps to minimize human error during the recovery process. We send a Live Optics invitation to customers, and this file collects data from the customer, including input and output per second and the uses of capacity, disk, and core used in the environment. We collect this data by the Live Optics tools and send this report to the account manager, who can size the solution after that. The installation process for Dell Cloud Disaster Recovery is easy, and we already have the experience for installation and implementation. If we need any help, we have engineers in the distributor company in Egypt. We already have the Dell deployment option, which can be offered from day one from the Dell configurator, so implementation is not a problem.

Technical asst. at a educational organization with 501-1,000 employees
Integrated backups and orchestration have protected critical workloads with zero downtime
Pricing is always a consideration because nowadays the price has increased a lot. We bought our system five years ago and we paid in advance, so we are not yet affected by the price increase. However, we are planning to buy another solution in the very near future because the old one is now phasing out. We are planning to buy a replacement of the existing infrastructure and we are facing a lot of cost issues because they increased the price. Previously it was per socket. Now they moved to per core with many other restrictions. Our experience over the last five years has been very positive, but nowadays we find that Nutanix support is degraded. They started reducing their support. Their new functionality is not as stable. Nutanix has added Kubernetes cluster creation, segmentation, and micro-segmentation. Even their support people are not fully knowledgeable. Their support people are trained for VM-based systems, but now their own internal services are running using Kubernetes and containerization. Their support staff does not have enough knowledge to provide proper support. This may be a transition period where a lot of new functionality has been added and the support staff is not yet well acquainted with it.
