They need to improve in terms of how quickly can we get attention and how quickly problems are resolved. Its price could also be lower."
"The problem is that when want to expand with a new chassis, you have to do everything manually. It's not automatic."
"I am not sure if iLO is included or if there is a separate license. If it is not included, it should be included in the license. It is such a valuable feature especially because people are working remotely."
"The solution could improve by having more automation, such as the automatic mapping feature that is available in the Synergy Blade series."
"HPE BladeSystem can improve proactive monitoring."
"The servers are a little bit huge, so it would be great if they could renew the size."

"Supermicro blade servers are not the best. They could improve in scalability but are not really scalable right now."
"The solution does not scale well."
"There is a lack of support for fiber channels currently that needs to be added."
