"The most valuable feature is the combined management in one box."
"It is pretty easy to install."
"While I cannot say Dell is better than HP or IBM, Dell has a strong presence here in Qatar. We can recommend Dell because of that strategic factor."
"The system is very intuitive."
"It is simple to use and it's user-friendly."
"The solution is stable."
"Dell PowerEdge VRTX supports a lot of memory which has allowed us to keep our system size smaller."
"The most valuable features of the solution are the flexibility and the availability of the machines."
"We find the deduplication and compression features to be most valuable, as well as that of the backup solution inside."
"The tool's most valuable features are stability and scalability."
"Most of the HP products I come across are they are easy to install. That's not very complex."
"The flexibility is the most advantageous aspect of the solution. Our system has a very big environment. Due to this, the replication and backup operation is not an easy task. We prefer HPE SimpliVity modules in our environment, even when we have some different cases in operations."
"The solution's most valuable feature is its ability to restore lost machines. Essentially its high availability capabilities are extremely valuable to us."
"This is a scalable solution. Our customers begin with an initial configuration and later add more servers, memory and other options to meet the demands of increased processing."
"We use the solution for DDI."
"Management of storage and networking is web-based, slow, and difficult."
"Dell PowerEdge VRTX can improve by providing support for M2 drives."
"The nodes should be synced with the server so that the solution can be used from the cloud when any or all nodes are down."
"VRTX is a bit simplified to the extent that it is a mainstream type of solution for small businesses. If a company needs a more complex solution or something that is a time saver or has more power or scalability, it is probably not the best solution. However, when a company grows and its needs grow, this type of environment can be definitely migrated towards a lab environment or pre-prod testing, not necessarily production. It can still have a second life for the other types of use."
"The scalability could be better."
"We've had general issues related to the solution being difficult."
"The support must be improved."
"When we first started with this product, we had some difficulty with it."
"HPE ConvergedSystem needs to improve its price."
"I would like to see better manageability and integration with third-party tools."
"The solution needs to add NFS features."
"There is some scope for improvement in support. The response time could be better."
"This is an expensive solution."
"It could be enhanced by improving the built-in backup solution."
"Pricing is an area of concern in the solution where improvements are required."
"The tool has shortcomings in its performance monitoring part."
