"Automatic rebalancing is the feature saving administration time."
"They know how to clearly present any important data, including data flow and each drive's IOPS/bandwidth; and allow the user to easily monitor bottlenecks and problems"
"Compared to other products in this category that are competing with Dell EMC, Dell seems to us to always come out on top."
"Integration with vCenter WebClient services and Cisco UCS Ecosystem, as it gives a Single Pane Of Management which lowers administration-cost (improving TCO)."

"There is room for improvement in the area of horizontal scaling."
"It would be nice to set minimum IOPS per volume, besides just the maximum, to be able to satisfy this demand from customers out-of-the-box, not by calculating number of disks, etc."
"If they could introduce a write cache feature, the product would be perfect overall."
"Stability during installations/upgrades is a big issue."
