Offers great performance and customization for application servers
There are a few bugs in PowerEdge C that require some configurational settings to be done with the help of a support team when we reconfigure the solution.

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature of the solution is its stability."
"Fujitsu Primergy BX400 Series has two processors."
"The solution provides good support and service."
"The initial setup is not complex. It's a user-friendly tool."
"PowerEdge C is the best server I have worked with. I like that it's user-friendly. PowerEdge C performs very well."
"It provides the necessary infrastructure for our operations."
"The product stability has been excellent."
"The security of the product is very good."
"The performance is good."
"It was not complex to deploy."
 

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."
"We had a few minor issues with compatibility on the latest version during the installation process."
"HP is a little bit lower in terms of price."
"The VxRail should be opened to allow other virtualization platforms to be used."
"There could be some more ports added in the future."
"There has been an increase in quality issues."
"The pricing of PowerEdge solutions is very high nowadays."
"It would be better if it worked with SMTP servers on the cloud. Right now, it only allows notifications via the SMTP server. In the next release, I would like to have a better processor."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"No license is required to operate the product."
"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."
"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."
"The price of the solution is reasonable."
"PowerEdge C is a reasonably priced product, and the pricing depends on how many years you need the product. The cost also includes the support."
"The cost depends on the configuration."
"The licensing cost of PowerEdge C is very high."
