The best features offered by Dell PowerVault, in my opinion, is mainly scalability, which has been one of the strongest points for me. Having the ability to expand up to 192 disks has been very important for me. Its supported RAID system has also allowed me to maintain high availability of information, and its broad compatibility with Microsoft, VMware, Hyper-V, and Linux systems has allowed me to work without major problems. I would highlight the ease of administration regarding the features I value most in Dell PowerVault. The controllers, the dual controllers seem fantastic to me. The supported technology they provide both for bandwidth and performance is spectacular. The design that allows us to consolidate storage, data-intensive applications, and enterprise virtualization, I find it great. The SAN connectivity among its different models, the MD3400, the MD3800, the MD3860, has been transparent for us because the system interconnects quickly. The compatibility with VMware seemed fantastic to me. The performance, expansion, SAN connectivity, quick configuration of controllers, RAID arrays, and the architectures that Dell PowerVault maintains are very remarkable and drive us to work effectively, reducing time and, above all, improving the response times of our services. A concrete example of how the reduction in times or improvement in service response has impacted my company's day-to-day operations is that we had an issue, especially when working in the cloud. The use of services and bandwidth were not always optimal, and when we moved them to physical systems in our offices with Dell PowerVault systems, we improved significantly. Responses that previously took between 30 and 35 seconds now reach the client in no more than 15 to 20 seconds at most. The HTML5 graphical interface of PowerVault Manager is very interesting and is very easy to apply and allows us to work quickly to manage the storage. The main advantage is that it allows you to work on one or multiple arrays from a single console, reviewing configuration, reconfiguration, expansion, maintenance tasks, and performance tuning.
