PowerEdge has helped to reduce data processing time by 20%.""The Xeon CPU makes the system work very well and fast. I like this type of CPU. It has helped to improve the performance of targeted workloads by 70%.""I like the iDRAC feature. I have also seen long life from each part and haven't had to call support, as far as I remember.

Cons
"There needs to be more flexibility for business options.""The versions that I work with, they used to max out on memory, on RAM, quickly, so I'd want to think in the newer versions, they actually allocate more processing power and more RAM to them.""There is a suggestion to potentially revisit pricing.""This solution helped us reduce our rack footprint. It reduced our power consumption including size and weight.""It is hard to make a comparison without any technical factsheets for the other servers to compare with but like everyone else, it is about the pricing.""The flexibility of card use could be improved.""The data analytics for this solution could be improved.""It's more from the pandemic, however, the logistics part of it could be better."
