The most valuable feature from Dell PowerStore is the velocity, particularly the IOPS and performance. It's very good for the data and for making algorithms, which respond quickly to users since I work in a bank, and we have many agencies providing services for clients. The response is very quick and fast.

Compression, deduplication, and speed are excellent features that we get with Dell PowerStore. The real good IOPS are particularly notable features.

With the compression deduplication of Dell PowerStore, it becomes a real business advantage as people don't need to invest so much in hardware. The initial investment might sound high, but when you get five times the deduplication compression, the numbers show customers are getting a good deal for their money. At the same time, they get 4X, 4 6, 4 9s on the quality of service, making it a reliable solution for clients.

The migration from Unity to Dell PowerStore is seamless without requiring high-level technical migrations. We can replace a 10U solution with a 2U solution in Dell PowerStore. Initially, I was surprised because I wasn't really calculating the benefits of compression and deduplication, and it seemed expensive. However, once you see the 2X, 3X, 4X compression capacity, it makes sense and proves to be a good deal. 

Customers react positively to the Dell PowerStore solution, and the energy consumption and space consolidation are beneficial features.

The solution is good and we feel comfortable with it. It's a process of continuous improvement, similar to our experience with Unity. As we complete more installations, our efficiency improves.

The most valuable features of Dell PowerStore include the completion through or the integration with OpenManage, where it can communicate and send back critical alerts or issues from a storage standpoint, heating, cooling, and all the typical management aspects. That's a time saving. It's all under one window. I can look at the servers, I can look at the storage, and I can see if there are any alerts on anything if it's all green, versus having different management windows to go back and forth between.

I've realized cost savings from switching to Dell PowerStore from Nimble. There definitely has been cost savings since the integration and everything we're doing is easier on our internal time to manage. 

I'm saving approximately 20% of time managing and running it, which is easier having it all under one access panel.

Going to all NVMe storage, the abilities for the access time and the latency with Dell PowerStore's all flash storage is fantastic. Before, we had spinning disk with front-ended SSD cache. Now we're all SSD, making it very fast.

We have some legacy apps, including our biggest ERP system that we're migrating from, which isn't even SQL server-based; it's a ProvideX database. We're considering a data warehouse and examining ETL options to get that data into a format that AI can analyze. Dell PowerStore and those PowerEdge servers have substantial capacity for that.

Dell PowerStore has features that specifically cater to the needs of our medium company. We're standardized with our network core at 10 gigs, however, they can go to 25 gigs. If we need changes, we're not ripping and replacing; we're simply changing some GBICs and fiber interfaces. Dell PowerStore itself can accommodate faster connections. I appreciate that we won't be forced into obsolescence within the first year.

One of the big performance metrics I use to measure success with Dell PowerStore is latency. The read and write latencies dropped significantly over our old system. With our Nimble storage, we had between 14 and 40 millisecond access times on some of our busier runs. Dell PowerStore rarely goes above five milliseconds. It's significantly faster, with most operations being sub-millisecond.

The most important aspect of Dell PowerStore in comparison to any other platform is that it helps us save costs while giving more value per GB per dollar spent. It provides an industry-leading DRR ratio. I can get a five-to-one DRR on Dell PowerStore, which helps bring more capacity in 1U or 2U platforms. It helps save not only on the storage box itself but also on power and rack space. It delivers high performance without compromising anything on the performance side. That's a major advantage with Dell PowerStore. 

It improves operational efficiency because the portal through which we can access the devices is very convenient. We can configure and assign storage to different VMs or different resources. In the same single pane of glass, we can access multiple devices.

Many people really appreciate Dell PowerStore, and they choose it since, especially from a brand perspective, it's very strong. Dell has been in Gartner for the last 10 years or so, and it contributes majorly to the market. 

In Pakistan, Dell has a physical presence along with Huawei and IBM, so we can say Dell has a very reasonable presence in Pakistan. Many customers are using it, which is one of the reasons why customers still believe in Dell PowerStore products. 

The good thing about this storage is that it is NVMe storage and provides very good compression and data reduction ratios. If you purchase storage with 300 terabytes, you can easily achieve one petabyte of effective capacity. That's the value Dell creates; you invest less, and you get a better ROI.

It's unified storage, so it can cover file, SAN, and block both. It's good storage; it gives good IOPS and less latency. 

The beauty is the simplicity - customers can manage multiple workloads from a single dashboard with scale-out architecture. The new binaries for Dell PowerStore are built on microservices, so updates can be easily deployed on the appliance without hardware changes. In summary, it offers scalability, simplicity, and performance as its magic triangles.

The solution has a very efficient data reduction guarantee of 5:1 based on the workload, which is supported by Dell. The Dell support and services make it easy to sell and easy for customers to use.

It is also very easy to use. The solution is easy to maintain and scale.

The most valuable features of Dell PowerStore for us are the top performance, which is very fast and efficient, and the user interface, which is very intuitive and easy to use for maintaining or creating LUNs or whatever else we might need to do. 

The benefits I have seen from using Dell PowerStore so far include taking advantage of Dell's Anytime Upgrade. It is now renamed but remains the same thing. Last November, I upgraded both units to the 9200s with no outage, and it was really amazing, along with the full Fiber Channel support, as our previous storage used to be FCoE, an older Fiber Channel technology. Now it's Fiber Channel 32, making Dell PowerStore instrumental in that.

The most valuable feature of Dell PowerStore is its expandability and reliability. The user interface is really simple to get behind and makes it really easy to expand and utilize the tools. 

Regarding Dell PowerStore, the storage gateways and the tools that Dell has to monitor the storage arrays and the servers provide real-time issues and open up support cases that are very beneficial. 

The ability to just slap in another tray of disks and expand that storage as needed without a huge array rebuild is very beneficial for keeping the business running and expanding as needed.

Dell PowerStore supports growth or operational success for my business through the ease of transition for data growth as we continue to grow our product lines and storage requirements, having the onsite storage with PowerStore to grow into versus the rather salty premiums that one pays for additional storage through cloud providers such as SharePoint Online and OneDrive, which offers a more cost-effective path of growth.

The most valuable thing for me is that what we do is not really resource-intensive. Most of our work is regular office tasks. We do not do a lot of high bandwidth tasks or tasks that require a lot of storage amount or compute power. What I am looking for is reliability and redundancy. That is built in at every level of the system. It is built in at the component level, and it is built in at the whole system level too.

I have seen a reduction in downtime. Unfortunately with the PowerEdge and the new setup, I cannot really answer that because it is so new. We have not had any downtime yet with it. Hopefully, we will not, however, so far we have not had any downtime.

I like having products from the same vendor. It reduces a lot of headaches. When you have multiple vendors, there can be finger-pointing. With one vendor, you can get a turnkey solution.

Moving and optimizing workloads within the cluster is quite easy based on my experience with Dell PowerStore.

The clustering feature, the Metro Cluster, deduplication capability, and compression are all important and valuable based on customer requirements.

Dell PowerStore's compression and deduplication technologies are very important for customers. These features increase operational efficiency and reduce their hardware footprint.

Operational efficiency is improved based on the customer industry and how their day-to-day operations and overheads are reduced. The management capabilities of Dell PowerStore are extremely easy to use and user-friendly. The benefits include ease of management and time savings.

Customers have been able to consolidate data using Dell PowerStore by 25% to 30% at least.

The thing that I appreciate the most about Dell PowerStore is how easy it is to upgrade; the upgrade process is very simple, and I really appreciate how easy it is to connect my hosts to Dell PowerStore, as the environment automatically detects new fiber channel HBA ports for all the hosts that we connect to.

Dell PowerStore has simplified my workload pretty dramatically as an organization. It is very easy to manage Dell PowerStore; we have other Dell products, such as Dell Compellent and Dell PowerVault, and the PowerStore is much simpler to use. I have experienced dramatic time savings with Dell PowerStore. I estimate that I'm probably saving six to 10 hours a week in management with Dell PowerStore.

The most valuable feature of Dell PowerStore is its immutable storage, which is what we are looking for. It offers high protection in terms of ransomware protection. 

Customers see benefits from implementing Dell PowerStore, as it significantly speeds up their workloads. When we change the repository for our data and speed up the workload, including applications and databases, our virtual environment or private cloud speeds up. Everything about the work done in the company speeds up, from the warehouse to the offices, and every part of the company improves.

For me and my customers, the most valuable features of Dell PowerStore are the data reduction and scalability. The data reduction of 5:1 with the latest version of the software is very good because it saves a lot of money and space, allowing us to use the budget for other things. 

Another valuable feature of Dell PowerStore is its scalability, as you can add one drive at a time to grow without having to purchase multiple drives.

Connectivity is another notable feature; you can use many PCIe cards to connect to the back end. With AI and the push for faster workflows, we need to integrate 100 Gigabit cards and faster switches. Additionally, because it operates within a broader ecosystem, Dell PowerStore is very compatible with various systems, including SAP and Oracle, enhancing speed and latency for numerous use cases. I believe Dell PowerStore fits 90% of companies and meets their storage needs.

The most valuable feature of Dell PowerStore is the speed. The speed of information and the ability to recover information are exceptional. 

The clustering feature of Dell PowerStore allows users to federate or cluster several appliances to work as single storage, which is a unique approach. 

The feature of integrated AI and machine learning enhances the usage and operations of the storage, making it one of the key features of Dell PowerStore.

Dell PowerStore has a unique deduplication and compression ratio compared to others in the market, which always comes in our favor when sizing Dell PowerStore against competitors. The deduplication can achieve up to 20X from the original storage capacity.

Updates come with enhancements. Each time we do an update, there is an enhancement, like new features, which is extraordinary. Other companies would try to charge for all that, but the enhancements just come with it. 

The most valuable feature of Dell PowerStore is Metro Volumes. It allowed us to remove our current Recovery Point/Broadcom VMware SRM licenses, which cost a fortune, resulting in significant cost savings.

The product stands on its own merit. It does exactly what it's meant to do. It's very scalable, very efficient power-wise and performance-wise.

We find that Dell PowerStore scales efficiently, as we've had good success with performance, availability, and deduplication. The benefits we see when we put Dell PowerStore in include a smaller footprint; we consolidated 10 racks into two racks, going from all Cisco UCS, Pure, and Dell Compellent into one Dell PowerStore. It was a two Dell PowerStore cluster with about 26 Dell servers, so we went from 10 racks down to two, leading to major consolidation.

The features of Dell PowerStore that I appreciate the most are that it just works; it's tried and true and amazing, and we never have to worry about it. 

A lot of the interface is very clean and easy to use, making it very easy to get done what we need to get done.

One of the benefits I have seen from using Dell PowerStore is ease of use. While it is one of the biggest things, another huge benefit is that we have implemented other solutions and had issues with them—hardware, software, whatever it may be—and we don't have those issues using Dell PowerStore; it just works and is very reliable.

The most impactful feature is the data reduction. Data reduction significantly saves costs. If I purchase, for example, twenty terabytes of storage, the effective capacity gives me somewhere around eighty terabytes. I pay for ten terabytes but gain eighty terabytes or fifty terabytes, for example. It depends on the type of data I am storing on Dell PowerStore, but usually, the reduction ratio is very good. It's a fantastic feature.

I have read about the new ability to cluster multiple PowerStore appliances and it sounds like a very good feature.

Its management capabilities are very strong. It is easy to implement and very easy to manage. The interface is very user-friendly.

APEX AIOPS is quite useful. It sends helpful notifications. It tells you what bottleneck is in your storage environment. It gives you detailed orientation of  why you are you are getting a bottleneck and where the problem is. 

We have been able to consolidate data using PowerStore.

PowerStore's compression and duplication technologies are very important and useful. It's a good feature.

The data resiliency and cybersecurity are good. It covers all the aspects that modern storage should have. 

The PowerStore cybersecurity and resiliency features meet our organizational needs.

PowerStore's built-in integrations for VMware are beneficial. It has all the features that need to be integrated into the environment. It's well aligned and tightly integrated.

We're just exploring AI use cases for Dell PowerStore currently, as we're in the early stages of it. We definitely can see the potential of helping our medical staff come to conclusions quicker, also our financial team, which can get very complex with insurance and billing, and we're looking for opportunities there. We're also looking at opportunities in my field in IT to support staff more quickly, so there's a lot of potential across the board with supply chain issues and all that kind of infrastructure.

I don't have many features to highlight for Dell PowerStore. I do appreciate the warranty support side of it. When we've had issues, it's been easy to get them rectified. 

The most valuable feature of Dell PowerStore is the ease of deployment and general use. The ease of use of Dell PowerStore means that we don't have to have as many storage admins, and general people can now use it as opposed to just having specialized teams for that. 

Dell PowerStore has freed up staff to do other things, and they don't have to focus as much on the care and feeding of things on a day-to-day basis. We save approximately 40 man-hours a month, which is significant.

Dell PowerStore is amazing. That said, the most valuable feature is yet to be determined. 

Dell PowerStore has benefited my organization overall, and I would assess the timeframes to deploy it as efficient.

The most valuable feature revolves around expandability, especially since our company had to grow one of the appliances once. My company found the tool to be really easy to use, expand, and manage.

My organization uses Dell CloudIQ to manage and analyze Dell storage. My company has not faced any issues with CloudIQ since we mostly use it for monitoring and reporting, and it never came back to us with anything, so everything is always green there. CloudIQ has not given our company anything yet since we may not have done anything wrong to date. As per one of the recent announcements, CloudIQ has been renamed Dell APEX AIOps. Going forward, we need to remember that CloudIQ has been branded as Dell APEX AIOps.

I don't look or assess Dell PowerStore's overall energy consumption closely since it is not in a data center where one can have features to monitor power. I would assume that the product would be efficient when it comes to the overall energy consumption area, and I understand that there will be some additional power savings with the newer versions of the product and the latest hardware. There hasn't been anything associated with the product that has been an issue for our company.

In terms of the ESG values of the product, I think Dell PowerStore has been doing a good job. Dell's team has been doing its best when it comes to the area of ESG values since they talk a lot about being green and recycling while also emphasizing how they are able to take in old products and dispose of them properly, making me believe that Dell works towards a good initiative.

The challenges my company is trying to address with the use of the solution, especially in areas like workload or data consolidation, I would say that the workloads that my company is running are all VMs, so we get into a ton of consolidation in that regard. The challenge my company is trying to address with the use of the solution revolves around the area of performance. The tool has not only met and addressed our company's challenges concerning the performance area but also exceeded them.

My company integrates Dell PowerStore with VMware.

The integration process of Dell PowerStore with VMware is not as easy as how it is when it comes to Dell Unity XT, especially in terms of getting the integrations turned on. Once the integration capabilities are turned on in Dell PowerStore, the tool works very well.

The most valuable feature of Dell PowerStore is its easy-to-use feature, specifically the simplicity. What makes Dell PowerStore simple is that users don't have to worry about the storage group; they just set up the storage and are ready to go without worrying about which kind of RAID group to set up or the protection of this group, as everything is managed by the storage itself.

The first benefit of Dell PowerStore for my company is the speed and low latency with low latency working workload of the storage. The second feature is the security, because it has Secure Snapshot and other security features, ensuring the data is fast and protected in a good way.

The specific features of Dell PowerStore that I find the most impactful for our organization include using it for our NAS and SAN storage, which is a relief for us. It's natively supported with our VMware infrastructure. We are still trying to figure out how we can utilize it more. Due to the low latency on IOPS, it helps us with our critical apps that cannot afford delays. It decreases the number of incidents. The IOPS part works out well for us. 

The management portal is particularly user-friendly. We can access it easily, and the management software is not complicated.

With the recent firmware upgrade, we have a feature to restrict the bandwidth and throughput specifically for the volume.

The compression and deduplication that Dell PowerStore offers is performing well, especially compared to our previous storage solutions. We are achieving approximately a 2.8:1 ratio.

The most valuable feature of Dell PowerStore is the data compression, which is extremely good, having a data compression ratio of 5:1 that rarely other storages have in the market. This feature is very good compared to others.

What makes the data compression feature of Dell PowerStore so good is that if you need to store, for example, 100 TB of storage, you just have to buy 1/5 of it, the capacity, and then you can store that data. The compression features in the storage make it very special compared to others, apart from the day-to-day, normal data retrieving capabilities such as data deduplication, which this has something more that no other storages offer.

The best features of Dell PowerStore fall in line with most other SANs. The best features include reliability, redundancy, and snapshotting, which are typical capabilities when it comes to a SAN. Dell PowerStore has impacted my organization positively because we have reduced outages. The performance is great and the reliability is excellent. We have had nothing but a positive experience with it.

The five to one data compression with Dell PowerStore is valuable. This compression ratio is a huge advantage in the market. We are positioning this as the first valuable feature advancing beyond our other competitors, such as HPE and Lenovo.

The performance is very good, which is important for storage. Performance is important for storage, with features like compression and deduplication. Performance is crucial, and the price compared to the risk isn't the worst. High availability is achieved, and the load is divided between two nodes.

Compression of data is good. It offers good resilience against ransomware. Our data is safe from attacks. I achieve a higher ability with this solution. There are features for resilience against ransomware and cyber attacks, including security. 

It's easy to manage. I use a lot of Dell solutions and find the GUI very user-friendly. 

The APEX IOPS are good. It gives a lot of good information.

We can consolidate data using PowerStore. We have a guaranteed compression of four to one. We also received extra space from the vendor.

We've been able to consolidate data by about 100% to 240%.

We've been able to increase operational efficiency. 

The data encryption is good and available in a standard license. There are snapshot and backup capabilities. 

PowerStore has helped us reduce our Capex by 20% to 40%. 

The best feature of Dell PowerStore is its flexibility for expanding data storage. Dell PowerStore has helped our organization as it is a proven SAN solution that is expandable if we need it to be, and it is web-driven for manageability.

The biggest trust element is people are very happy to depend on a Dell infrastructure. When we talk to them about infrastructure, we will say, 'We need an infrastructure for a certain project.' 

We work with our Dell partner team to see which experts we need to get involved. When that brings Dell PowerStore into it, the features users appreciate include ease of use, security, dependability, and scalability. 

The natural progression of the Dell PowerStore family into bigger offerings and the integration between them is something that clients appreciate.

The most valuable features of PowerStore are its density and data reduction. Combined they allow for a larger data footprint in a smaller area. It is high-performing. I get good latency and high access times for mission-critical workloads. I can scale it to meet my needs and it is reliable.

The use of NVMe is notable, and the speed and performance it provides are commendable. Fast storage is critical to many applications. The faster the back-end storage, the quicker the entire application performs. NVMe, in particular, makes a significant difference.

The most valuable feature of Dell PowerStore, compared to previous products, is probably the ease of installation and upgrades. 

The benefits our organization has received from installing Dell PowerStore include a smooth transition from previous storage, Unity and previous Dell storage, making for an easy migration.

The biggest improvement we found when moving into Dell PowerStore was the deduplication and compression. I did not believe we could get that much storage into one. However, the solution brought it down and compressed everything, which was amazing.

We went from Compellent, which was over 100 terabytes, down to Dell PowerStore, which was 30 terabytes. It significantly saved on rack space, power, and cooling.

Our organization uses CloudIQ to manage and analyze our Dell storage. It's a little confusing because we have multiple IT shops, and I can see what other groups are using. I can only see what I can see, and they can only see what they see. So, it becomes more of a viewing thing than actually doing.

We were looking to replace our old Compellent hardware by implementing Dell PowerStore. The data reduction with Dell PowerStore was much better than we had with Compellent. It was truly amazing.

We are utilizing Dell PowerStore’s integration with VMware, which makes it a lot easier to manage.

We have been able to reduce our organizational footprint using Dell PowerStore. We went from 18U of rack space down to 2U.

We have two different PowerStores in two different geographical locations, but they're separate workloads altogether. They're not replicated or anything like that.

When you purchase the solution, it comes with professional services, and our experience with them has been great.

Dell PowerStore is far superior to other Dell products we've used over the years, such as EqualLogic and Compellent. I would recommend the solution to other users because it is worthwhile.

The solution's most valuable features are its form factor and switching to NVMe. Dell has lowered its footprint and power consumption. Regarding functionality, the management in the box itself between the nodes and automation between the nodes are quite nice.

CloudIQ is a fantastic feature that gives us a good overview of everything we have. With the depreciation of the SRS, we have to use that quite a lot more because they're moving everything over to CloudIQ. CloudIQ has been nice on a very broad term for our multiple appliances. Even with Dell PowerStore, we have the ability to keep an eye on two because they're not clustered together.

Dell PowerStore has been amazing in its overall energy consumption. The solution's ability to not have to max out a circuit just for our storage rack is amazing. It gave us a lot more freedom to expand with the existing power that we already have without having to get electricians to redo everything.

We were looking to address the challenges of physical storage size and power consumption by implementing the solution.

The data-at-rest encryption and its encryption features allow us to get to a higher consistent level of security possible.

The ability to use Dell PowerStore for our AI-driven workloads is very important. The processing isn't done there, but the AI systems being processed are still stored on the endpoints.

We have been able to reduce our organizational footprint by one standard rack using Dell PowerStore.

One of our customers is a bank that has Dell PowerStore. Initially, before implementing Dell PowerStore, their transactions were slow, and they received many complaints from their customers regarding data access speed and backup initiation times. 

After implementing Dell PowerStore storage, the performance became exceptional, and customers started to notice improvements in system access. The internal team was very satisfied with the storage performance, and customers are providing positive feedback about Dell PowerStore storage.

The latency and the security are the most valuable features of Dell PowerStore. The latency is important because we are a distribution center that has workers who pick drugs and medical devices off the conveyor belt, so the efficiency is important. We also want to make sure that everything is secure and that we have an easy way to manage our infrastructure. 

Dell PowerStore's valuable feature stems from an area named Metro Volume, which is quite simple to implement. The feature works fast and is good.

It has high levels of deduplication and compression.

The challenge my company was trying to address with the implementation of Dell PowerStore was performance. For some applications, Dell PowerStore was not so good, but in general, it is a good product.

I have worked on all of the models offered under Dell PowerStore.

Speaking about the increase in performance of our company's applications, I would say that though in some cases, the performance was reduced, the overall performance was increased by 20 to 30 percent.

My organization uses Dell CloudIQ to manage and analyze Dell storage.

I use VMware with Dell PowerStore's integration feature. The integration of VMware with Dell PowerStore has improved our company's ability to see information about virtual machines directly from the storage console.

Sometimes, my company has been able to reduce our organizational footprint or data consolidation using Dell PowerStore by helping us reduce the number of devices and by helping us migrate from old to new storage products.

In terms of the environment where the solution is used, my organization deploys it on multiple sites. At times, my company deploys the tool at a single site, depending on the needs of our customers.

Dell PowerStore is more cost-efficient than other solutions.

The most valuable features of Dell PowerStore are the resilience, scalability, flexibility of expansion, and ease of managing the entire solution including the servers and storage.

The platform's reliability and built-in replication between disk systems have made our customers happy. It has worked consistently well over the years.

PowerStore's compression ratio is a valuable feature for our VMs because it gives us a lot back. It is also easily configurable and we have it fully automated, so the API helps a lot.

I can't think of anything to improve Dell PowerStore because when it comes to storage, I don't want to have to troubleshoot it or deal with it unless I'm deploying a new volume or deploying something. That's one of the reasons why I love PowerProtect - if I didn't save the password in a password manager, I would forget what the admin login is, because I never have to log into it and troubleshoot it at all. It just works. It is very resilient, and that's my favorite thing about it. 

I evaluate storage reliability performance by noting that I'm the one who would have to troubleshoot or fix something, and with Dell PowerStore, I never have to log into it, which is awesome. 

I've never had to contact support, which is one of the reasons why I love it. I don't want to constantly have issues with something, so I can dedicate my time to something else that's not just fixing what we have.

The most valuable feature about Dell PowerStore is speed and reliability. Speed and reliability are valuable because we reach a better response time in the applications. 

We use the storage principally for the database, and their response of the database was better after that. Dell PowerStore helps my organization overall by providing a better experience for the clients from the front end.

The most valuable feature is the encryption in the loop because we can manage data center data from a different perspective, reducing the space used while growing data using the same equipment.

The most valuable feature of Dell PowerStore is the metro cluster because we have two data centers and high availability. The solution provides good performance and stability.

Our organization uses CloudIQ to manage and analyze our Dell storage. It helps us see all the information together and understand more about the technology.

The solution has helped us achieve 5:1 data reduction.

We are utilizing Dell PowerStore’s integration with VMware.

We have been able to reduce our organizational footprint using Dell PowerStore.

My experience with Dell’s reseller was very good because they helped us a lot.

The solution's most valuable feature is that the full NVMe offers great latency, which is the most effective way to give our customers the benefits of all-flash storage, especially since they won't really notice the bandwidth more than the latency.

The challenges my company was trying to address with the implementation of Dell PowerStore revolve around floor space saving. In Germany, one mostly has to deal with a conservative customer base. If there is a storage that is seven years old and now if one wants to change it, then there are these big machines, with which one can get a lot of terabytes out of it, and that is definitely a big point. When it comes to the area of data reduction, Germany is very conservative, and it may not be possible to reach 4:1 data reduction, but it is still good as the tool's usability is very simple compared to other systems.

Dell PowerStore's ability in the area of overall energy consumption is very good compared to the other systems, which have spinning disks. All-flash storage solutions are a lot more effective, but it is a big concern as energy prices are high. In terms of whether my company could reduce the power consumption with Dell PowerStore, I would say that my company had a use case with a customer around three weeks ago where their old Dell EMC VNX Storage System used to draw about 2500 watts compared to Dell PowerStore which drew about 800 watts, which is a really a big saving looking at the twenty-four hours and seven days of usage of the system.

My organization uses Dell CloudIQ to manage and analyze Dell storage around 50 percent of the time. It makes a lot more sense when one has a lot more Dell hardware because it provides one with a single pane of glass management and an overview of the systems.

After assessing Dell PowerStore's Cyber-resilient data approach to security, I would say that its secure and immutable snapshots are a big feature in Europe. The tool was lacking for quite a time in the area of cyber-resilient data approach to security, but now it has become very good. I think Dell PowerStore is a state-of-the-art system.

I have been able to reduce our organizational footprint and data consolidation using Dell PowerStore, considering that the tool has helped with data reduction by around a 2.5:1 ratio. If I compare the footprint of Dell PowerStore with our company's previously used solution, I would say that the products used in the past did not help with any kind of reduction of data. As a company that has partnerships with different vendors, we have Pure Storage in our portfolio. Pure Storage is better than Dell PowerStore, specifically in the case of data reduction. The algorithm behind Pure Storage performs a bit better, but looking at the price difference, Dell PowerStore is available at a better deal.

The tool is deployed mostly on an on-premises model. The deployment is split into an 80 percent and 20 percent model. Around three to seventeen customers use the tool with VMware, while a few customers use OpenStack.

Powerstore's cyber-resilient approach protects our data well. We haven't had any problems. 

The budget is good. It's really good, price-wise. It's cost-effective.

We have some VMware use cases for VMware infrastructure and it is good for that. We can use it for its data reduction capabilities. We have moved from 1.48 to 1.27. 

It offers good snapshots.

We use Cloud IQ for analysis. It's simple to quickly check and you don't have to be near the array to do so. 

The cyber-resilient data approach is good. It has all the features we need as a security company. The read-only snapshots are great.

The most valuable aspects of Dell PowerStore are integration with VMware and reliability.

The tool's most valuable features are compression and speed.

The particular models of Dell PowerStore we use in our company are our main storage tools for the commercial insertion business we do. In our company, we Dell PowerStore so that we can store a lot of data in it and the compression is really needed so that we can just have the space.

Regarding the size of my company's environment and how much space we use in the tool, I would say that we use close to 500 terabytes of data.

The product is great in terms of workload consolidation, power efficiency, and performance. The performance increase from the use of Dell Compellent and Dell Isilon is one of the reasons my company picked Dell PowerStore, which is so that we can get the compression and speed that it provides. The tool automatically reduces our workload time. In our company, we used to have job times running into hours, like 12 or 14 hours, and it has now been reduced to two hours because of the tool's speed. Instead of 4:1 data reduction, my company only gets 3:1 data reduction. My company is waiting for the patches and product to proceed with its next release so that we can get the 5:1 data reduction feature.

I use Dell PowerStore's integration capabilities. My company uses VMware on Dell PowerStore.

Dell PowerStore's integration with VMware has been beneficial in areas like speed and compression.

My company has been able to reduce footprint and data consolidation. In my company, we were able to consolidate all of our Barebone Servers onto VMs, and then onto Dell PowerStore. My company has been able to consolidate around sixty different servers along with an equal amount of virtual machines using Dell PowerStore.

PowerStore is easy to use, powerful, reliable, and highly customizable to customers' needs.

The solution's most valuable features are deduplication and availability. The product also offers reliability and generally doesn't crash.

My company uses a local cloud and not Dell CloudIQ to manage and analyze storage.

The challenges my company was trying to address with the implementation of Dell PowerStore, were that we wanted to achieve upgrades in an app mode. A majority of the upgrades should be done in an app mode because the boxes are always in production, or else when you need to stop it for operational reasons, it becomes very difficult for our company since our business functions twenty-four hours every day. I want Dell to offer updates via app mode. 

When it comes to workload consolidation, Dell has been helpful depending on the business because now we need to put the workloads on an on-premises model and also on the cloud as our system is very complex. My company has a lot of applications on the cloud and some others in the data center and on-premises version, so we need to have the ability to put applications in both areas. 

My company already uses the 4:1 data reduction feature attached to the product, but now we want to have something more complex like a 10:1 reduction functionality, as it reduces the cost associated with an all-flash storage solution.

In terms of Dell PowerStore's Cyber-resilient data approach to security, I would say that my company believes Dell Technologies to be better than the other brands. My company has dealt with several brands, and we believe that Dell is the best in terms of the functionalities it offers.

My company uses Dell PowerStore's integration capabilities since, in the centralized infrastructure, we work with solutions like VMware, Veeam, and Dell PowerProtect. Everything is integrated together in our company's environment. My company is going to use the tool's integration capabilities to enhance our resilience. 

It is very important for my company that Dell PowerStore offers good integration capabilities, especially since it helps with backup, which is an important aspect. If there is a cyber incident, you must restart all the data from the box, and at such a time, if you don't have good integration capabilities, it can be difficult for you to store the last saved data on the storage.

I use Dell PowerStore for AI-driven workload, as it is something that is very important for our company since the AI part helps us get all the benefits attached to the product and helps store the data.

PowerStore is robust compared to the previous models like Unity, and it provides excellent compression and deduplication.

The most valuable features are the three-to-one data reduction and the ability to scale out and up. The maximum data reduction the competition can offer is two to one. The higher the data reduction rate the better the price is.

The most valuable feature is the unwavering performance. It is a fast system that is reliable. The entire Dell ecosystem offers good integration with powerful tech.

The best features in Dell PowerStore are that it's easy to manage. For the customer user interface, customers can start learning and provision everything, and manage the system easily. From the operational efficiency perspective, Dell PowerStore has helped improve operational efficiency for most customers here, as they will arrange their EMC residency to manage their product on-site. It's easy to expand Dell PowerStore in terms of scaling up.

Initially, the performance caught our attention. It was optimal for block storage. 

We used Cloud IQ. The central management and outside support functionality were great since we had systems all over the world. 

The cyber-resilient approach to data security is good. We used the encryption. We had to do that for compliance. It was sufficient for our cyber team.

We did see a reduction in the footprint while using the product. We were able to go down in rack space and saw some significant downsizing. 

It integrates with VMware well. It's easy. We can easily create data storage with VMware, so we don't always need a storage architect. 

The most valuable functions are those that facilitate balance and sharing. This includes storage sharing, adding servers to the service, and the wireless host connection on the network side.

The solution's migration feature is very valuable, but the most valuable aspect is that more features appear with every iteration of the software.

Our organization uses CloudIQ to manage and analyze our Dell storage. Using CloudIQ has benefited our organization by projecting when we'll be full and telling us about the mechanics of things. It really gets ahead of any problems.

The solution's overall energy consumption would be less than that of SSDs or traditional drives.

Dell Technologies has good environment, social, and governance (ESG) values.

We implemented Dell PowerStore to address the challenges of speed and our in-line compression. The solution also helps with power efficiency, scalability, and data reduction.

Dell will say the data reduction is four, but realistically, it's 2.5. If the customer approaches Dell, they ask the customer to read the fine print. I've had to buy drives for my customers because Dell was unclear on making it good. So, we made it good ourselves because of our reputation.

We use Veeam for backup because Dell cybersecurity is a lot expensive.

We use Dell PowerStore's integration with VMware. Since the solution is integrated with VMware, we can perform many of our controls from VMware vCenter.

We have been able to reduce our organizational footprint using Dell PowerStore. We had a component with six departments, and we went from 12U to 2U, which probably used less power.

The environment in which this solution is used depends on the customer. Most of the time, it's either in a data center or a corporation.

Two clients use AWS, and others use Azure to deploy the solution. Dell PowerStore is a reliable solution.

Its flexibility is valuable because we have had some moments where we had to adapt, and it has been quite flexible.

The most valuable feature of the solution is the deduplication part, which is very good. The deduplication part of the solution is valuable since, as a user, you get more space for less money.

The product's performance is very good and matches up or exceeds the performance offered by the previous product in our company.

The most valuable feature of the solution for me is the deduplication part, especially since most of the servers in our organization are Windows-based servers. Due to the deduplication technology in the product, my organization needs just a little storage for many servers, meaning the new technology within Dell PowerStore is a big advantage for us.

1. The level of virtualization is a big feature. This is the most important thing in PowerStore. 
2. PowerStore has a very good replication tool. 
3. It has a good NAS environment. It has a very strong NAS that can support a lot of big, heavy environments. 
4. The container and its ability to connect directly to the cloud. We can use a lot of workloads and get all the workloads that we need. For example, we can get VMware directly from PowerStore and move it to the Cloud or any other containers. This is an added value of PowerStore. If you want to solve a workload problem, this is the best way.

Once you build an environment based on a container, it is a big benefit because you can take the workloads from the cloud directly to on-premises and vice versa. It is a big benefit, especially in an environment based on VMware, a virtualization environment, and heavy storage.

OpenManage Console is the best tool that Dell has. It is a great thing. We use it to configure the networking. It helps you realize what you need to discover. It is a little bit heavy. However, after that, it is a very user-friendly tool. It can connect to any vendor, switch, storage, etc. I would rate OpenManage Console as nine out of 10.

The most valuable feature is the functionality of the integration between the storage and the domain. Also, the possibility of having snapshots and synchronous replication is valuable. This is helpful for our enterprise customers because they need to replicate their data.

The most important thing is for Dell RND to continue to be innovative. 

Dell PowerStore is very simple to implement, and its user interface is very simple.

We noticed that the PowerStore has a really high compression ratio for data. It's really good for data deduplication and also compressing the data on the drives. The PowerStore's compression ratio is even higher than the Unity system. Also, the way the PowerStore is built with special CPUs for moving data around. The systems also have lower CPU utilization compared to Unity systems.

A particularly valuable feature is its simplicity. The reporting tools and support are good, and the solution promotes data reduction, often meeting the compression ratio. You can initially invest in less upfront capacity and expand later as needed.

It's easy to use and manage. It's compatible with our infrastructure. We don't have an issue in terms of compatibility, usage, and support.

We find NAS to be the most impactful feature of Dell PowerStore. The compression and deduplication technology is very important and essential, and this was one of the reasons that we decided to go with Dell PowerStore. 

Dell PowerStore has good value for money and some scalability features that are better than other products.

The usage of the system is very straightforward. It is simple and easy to use.

It has great snapshots. I can take a million snapshots and also schedule the timing.

There is no complicated configuration for queries and calls. You just create a model and go.

This generation of the product, overall, has been very nice. 

It is stable.

The solution can scale. 

The most valuable aspects of Dell PowerStore are the promising roadmap, and the interesting features to come. In the beginning, it was limited in the number of features but as time went by the feature came as promised. Now it is an enterprise corporate storage platform. There has been a good evolution.

Three years ago, I was a little scared about PowerStore because I have been working with storage solutions for many years and have a habit of maintaining additional storage machines, firmware, interfaces, and so on. I noticed that PowerStore is a totally virtualized solution. PowerStore runs container, docker, and so on, and the firmware is managed in a different manner, which is a good point for total virtualization of the firmware and so on. But on the contrary, it's like a black box for me. It is different to work on PowerStore compared to IBM. I worked in the past with IBM ESS 800 Shark Storage. The type of super virtualization in PowerStore is a startup feature. A digital machine is present inside the storage server when this startup feature is launched. This digital machine can be managed entirely remotely, with an automatic download available from Dell. We started with the solution's initial version three years ago, and now we are working on one of its latest versions.

We're a Dell shop to begin with, in our architecture. There are benefits to keeping Dell as the main brand and staying consistent. Dell is the product of choice in our shop.

The simplicity and performance are great. It meets a lot of our objectives.

We're still trying to figure out the cyber-resilient data approach to security. We're checking all the boxes from a performance perspective; security is a big factor and we're looking into it. It's very interesting.

We do use Cloud IQ. It's still new to us. We use it a lot for lifecycle management for our PowerEdge cache management. It's good for firmware and patch management. We're hoping we will be able to automate a lot of those activities (versus doing everything manually).

The overall energy consumption is good. We're saving on our consumption. It's more economical compared to other products and technologies. It has a slight edge; however, it may not be overly significant. It does make sense if you have multiple PowerStores. It would have multiple savings, depending on the amount you use. 

We've condensed our footprint and become more efficient. We've reduced our footprint by 50% at least.

The integration with VMware is great. That's our biggest play on-prem. 

The software upgrades are all included for no additional charge.

The solution is very easy to implement. 

It's stable.

The solution can scale. 

Its pricing structure is reasonable. 

The most valuable feature is that it is easy to use this frame. I am a SAN administrator, but I was able to train my colleague, who had only been a VMware administrator, on the PowerStore in about half a day. Now he's autonomous in assigning volumes and creating data stores, et cetera. I don't have to help him anymore. That is the beauty of this unit and it's due to the effort Dell EMC put into the GUI.

The VMware integration is very good. It integrates all the vSphere interactions when you create your data store, directly from the PowerStore GUI, into your VMware cluster. My colleague who was the VMware administrator is now able, in one shot, to provision his storage and automatically create a data store relying on this storage. That has freed up some of his time.

Another important feature is the power of this frame. It's very powerful. We have almost less than a millisecond of response time, all the time, even during backup windows. That's very good compared with the VNX, of which we have two. We also have a Unity connected on this same SAN for the same kind of application. We did a comparison among the three models of frames, the VNX, which is rather old, the Unity full flash, which is not so old, and the PowerStore. PowerStore is really on top of all of them.

Of course, it enables us to add compute and capacity independently. We add a lot of VMware clusters in our SAN thanks to the PowerStore. We are going to decommission the old VNXs because it's better adding capacity on the PowerStore than keeping the old models.

It is very easy to use. Access is very friendly. It shows you a lot of important information at the first glance. It has been very easy to use.

The deduplication functionality provided by the solution is fairly good. The speed offered by the product is enough for our organization. Our organization also has Dell EMC XtremIO, which is a bit faster, though Dell PowerStore alone is more than enough for us.

The initial setup is very straightforward.

The architecture is very good.

It's a reliable product. 

The data reduction feature is quite useful. It has a good reduction ratio during migrations.

The solution is stable. 

This solution is highly flexible and offers efficient online compression capabilities. 

The equipment is standardized and can be easily upgraded by replacing the controllers. 

The disk sizes are also quite adequate, and the solution is user-friendly. Additionally, it offers extremely fast performance.

One of the benefits of their continuous improvement approach is that each update comes with additional features, without any extra charges for previously missing functionalities.

The compression is excellent. It helps save space and allows us to allocate more space to the client.

The initial setup is easy.

The most valuable feature is the three-to-one data reduction. The improved reliability is also valuable.

The main feature of Dell PowerStore is its support for NVMe as well as hybrid solutions.

We require the most up-to-date NVMe technology.

We like the performance of Dell PowerStore.

Most of the features are available, including support for NVMe and a mix-and-match of storage devices.

It's a versatile box that has different kinds of protocols that can be switched off and on. They have their own encryption which is good. It also has its own file formatting protocol, which saves us a lot of space.

The solution's scalability, capacity, and performance are great. 

Migrations are very easy and fast. The solution works well with native products such as VxRail, Unity, or VMware. 

The simplicity and ease of use have been very valuable features. I have a very small team, and only half of the team is well versed in the HP product. Whereas if I bring PowerStore in, everyone can learn it because it will be new on the floor.

Also, the simplicity of the administration, snapshot capabilities, and its replication are other features of PowerStore that I've found to be valuable.

PowerStore is easy to use. All the drives use soft encryption. To upgrade it, you download the app, and it runs by itself. It's very easy to deploy, share, and create volumes. It's active, so you can have two nodes on one appliance. If Node A goes down, you still get node B at the bottom running. 

I would rate PowerStore's machine learning and AI eight out of 10 because customer automation is very easy. It's just a click of the button, You can also use what they call Cloud IQ, which is an online storage and monitoring software. If you log on to the internet, you can check on your plans to see how much space is left. Cloud IQ analytics software is free as long as you have an account with Dell.

Dell's built-in intelligence is the best because it can also calculate how much data is needed for storage beforehand and if you need to add more drives or anything. The built-in intelligence can adapt quickly to changing workload requirements. We were able to migrate from IBM storage by uploading an image. With other devices, it's sometimes hard to migrate from different forms of storage, but PowerStore was very quick. We didn't have any downtime because once we were able to create the image, we just had to do a cut-over on the other side. 

Pretty soon it's going to be Meditech certified, so it's going to be able to run Meditech. Right now we are using a different solution to run Meditech, but once it gets certified, we'll be able to move from the other appliance. VMware integration is very easy too. PowerStore gives us leverage, we can tell how much space is allocated to the VM and what's happening on a VM.

The support is very good. 

For smaller shops, the solution is useful. 

When compared to Pure Storage, Dell PowerStore's cost was quite attractive.

Some of the new features that are coming out, like vVols support are valuable. We're very excited about it. Currently, the features of replication and deduplication have been very important to us.

We've just heard that in the second half of this year, they will come out with support for vVols and the storage replication of those, which are new features. We're very excited about those. We've been waiting for them for a while.

For access from virtual machines, iSCSI, and NFS, it is very good. It helps increase performance.

Also, the live dedupe application is very good.

The solution's most valuable features are the quick data compression process and ease of scalability for all types of support contracts.

The most valuable features of Dell PowerStore are the support for NVMe and SCM, which provides end-to-end performance and high IOPS, minimizing latency. It is a full-fledged storage solution.

I like the performance of the PowerStore. When you talk about PowerStore, it's mainly about flash systems and high-end IOPS. The 1000T is a midsize box, in terms of the way the vendor positions it, but it is more than enough for our needs. At the site where it is located, there are about eight servers connected. The high IOPS support our needs. It is very performant.

Typically, high-performance and high-availability features, such as application snapshots and remote and local replication, are highly valued.

The solution is easy to use and has good performance.

The deduplication and compression features are quite impressive because when we enable this feature on other products, such as HPE 3PAR, we have a lot of latency. With PowerStore, we don't have that issue.

This device is less CPU intensive than the EMC Unity and the HPE 3PAR.

PowerStore supports the iSCSI interface, which we find helpful. We use one for our fiber channel but another one for iSCSI.

Our older PowerStore is where most of our demos are located. We're just using it as a block of storage and storage to power the VMware environment. That's been our main use case.

The most valuable features include 

• easy of use 
• performance in terms of read-write capacity.

It is also important that you can add compute and capacity independently. We have sized the solution based on our current needs, but in the future we can choose to increase capacity if we grow our activity in the market. And if we have more business in our monetary system, we can increase compute. The ability to choose what we increase is a good feature.

• Flexibility
• Performance
• Easy of use

It also has some very good compression capabilities. 

We were looking for a solution that was easy to install in our VMware environment, that was flexible. PowerStore X is a type of a VMware cluster that you install inside your environment. If you have a VMware environment, like we have in production, it's easy to install and use.

It enables us to add compute or capacity independently. We have also deployed some apps on PowerStore, even though the PowerStore we have is not the biggest one you can buy. One of the main characteristics of PowerStore is that it is like another piece of VMware, so you can run applications on top, applications that have direct access to the storage. The ability to add compute or capacity independently is great because it adds more flexibility to our environment. You are not adding only storage, but you're adding some not-so-big computing capability. You have the possibility of adding some virtual machines, running NVMe storage, and that is a real plus for this solution.

In addition, PowerStore's built-in intelligence for helping to simplify IT operations is incredible. When we approached PowerStore, we had an idea that it was a normative platform, but we were impressed by the capability of the solution. It's probably one of the best pieces of storage that we have installed here.

In my experience, its effective capacity and effective storage capacity are notable features that differentiate it from others. I configured the storage for a customer, and they had all the scattered data placed on different servers. I consolidated all the data into a single dashboard accessible via Dell PowerStore Manager, which improves performance and IT infrastructure.

The solution is resilient and reliable. The support is very good. It performs fast with excellent IOPS. Their deduplication and compression ratio features are excellent.

The pricing is really good.

I find all of the Dell PowerStore features to be valuable. 

Data compression is a great feature.

The way you're able to manage all your PowerStores as one solution is very good for us. PowerStore enables you to federate or cluster multiple appliances with automated load balancing. In terms of management, it's helpful that we can do it from a single interface where we're able to manage multiple PowerStores. When you have multiple PowerStores, it works intelligently by running the workloads based on the needs of the infrastructure.

The solution's machine learning and automation work well when it comes to optimizing resources. It does inline deduplication which means that the net the amount of storage you have available is bigger. It can do all kinds of optimization in the system itself and that works very well.

My guys have told me that the administration tools take advantage of machine learning and make recommendations to the admins, and that makes the administration easier.

The most valuable feature of Dell PowerStore is the all-NVMe flash storage. This is the most powerful feature of this series. It supports compression and duplication leads.

We have found the duplication compression feature very valuable.

The interface is very easy to use and easy to install. Everything essentially comes with it. All of the software is there for us.

This is an interesting solution and I find the mapping to be a great feature. 

I have found the most valuable part of Dell PowerStore is the price.

The supportability of SCME drives for faster data access from PowerStore and is the most valuable feature.
