We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The pricing of the product is fair and not too expensive.""It's reliable and stable.""The GPU units, processor speed, and capabilities are most valuable. Desktop video conferencing is also valuable. It supports desktop video conferencing much better for graphics.""The most valuable features are the value and the scalability.""Technical support are mostly helpful.""ProLiant is highly stable. We've had very few problems with the servers. We only once had an issue with the hard disk in an HPE server.""The most valuable features of HPE ProLiant DL Servers are convenience and the interface is good.""Stability is where HPE dominates competitors like Dell and Cisco. The servers are highly reliable, and we are impressed with the technology HPE offers."

"Additionally, the processing power is far superior, especially with the RSA feature for reliability, serviceability, and availability.""Power runs our resilient data systems, our high-end databases, stuff that can't go down.""Power Systems' best features are that it's reliable, stable, and easily available. It's also really scalable and can be virtualized without third-party software support.""The backups work great, data recovery works great.""The main feature that I have found most valuable is PowerVM - its virtualization feature which is the most powerful.""The SMT that they've improved has really helped open up boundaries for other applications that can use it.""BM Power Systems get updated every two years and are scalable and stable.""IBM Power Systems' best features are its reliability, resilience, and performance per rack unit."

Cons
"I want to improve hyper-converged sites.""Configurations could be simplified.""Its management console could be better.""The product must provide time travel features.""The price in general, including the licensing fee, could be better.""When it comes to security there can always be room for improvement. If there was an option to build security into the system it would be an advantage.""In Qatar, HPE doesn't have as much support as Dell. I would recommend Dell if given the option because it has a solid local presence.""There are concerns about the HPE team in the Southeast Asia region, suggesting a need for improvements in terms of responsiveness. There have been instances where the response time was slow, causing challenges during urgent situations. Its stability also needs to improve."

"In the next release, I'd like to see more features not in the hardware but in the platform where I can manage all the servers and the hardware of the servers."

More Huawei FusionServer RH Series Rack Servers Cons →

"In my country, there are power supply interruptions. IBM could find ways to make the product stable through these interruptions.""I know lab services does a lot of work but systems, if they could include some kind of lab services and bundling of services to get you to the greatest and latest feature at the already included cost""The solution is quite expensive.""I think IBM needs a little more work on managing the overall environment with eliminating Systems Director.""The pricing of the product could always be lowered.""Its management can be made easier because it is not easy to manage. They should also find a new way for migrating from an old Power Systems to a new one. The migration process is currently very complicated. It should be made easier to scale. Currently, its scalability depends on the initial sizing, whereas in Nutanix HCI, you can add whatever you need and whenever you need it.""Sometimes, the availability of additional services can be a challenge. Certain IBM software takes time to deliver to the client. It can be slow.""The solution is highly-priced."

    Information Not Available
