Lenovo ThinkSystem DE Series Reviews

We use Lenovo ThinkSystem DE Series for small businesses, primarily for VM workloads, as well as for block storage.

Lenovo ThinkSystem DE Series is simple to use. It is also simple to manage.

While it is a reliable product, it could be improved.

It would be useful to have structured solutions replicated to other sites.

I have been working with Lenovo ThinkSystem DE Series for two years.

Lenovo ThinkSystem DE Series is a stable solution.

It is scalable in our targets, but scalability is not important with these types of solutions.

The technical support is very good.

I'm familiar with HPE 3PAR and HPE Nimble Storage. I used to work with both of them in my previous company approximately six years ago.

We are now Dell and Lenovo partners, and I have switched to their technology.

We work with Dell Unity and Unity HC for PowerStore. We also work with the new series of Lenovo, DE, and DM.

It is simple to install.

It took approximately half a day to deploy.

We completed the implementation ourselves.

Lenovo ThinkSystem DE Series is cost-effective.

There is no license. All of the features are bundled together, and you can renew the bundle with all of the features included.

We are consultants, and this is a solution that we would recommend to others.

I would rate Lenovo ThinkSystem DE Series a nine out of ten.

We use this solution primarily for VMware, where we have three servers and storage of the VMs. The solution is deployed on-premises.

The best thing about this solution is its price, which reduces our costs. Additionally, this solution's ease of configuration and management are valuable features.

Improvements can be made to the product's performance.

We have been using this solution for approximately two years. Currently, we use DE 2000H, specifically series J3026371.

The solution is stable.

The solution is scalable. Approximately 300 people are using it in our organization.

We have had a very good experience with customer service and support. They answer questions very fast and resolve our issues.

The solution is very easy to set up.

The solution license costs us a one-time payment of 10,000.

I rate this solution an eight out of ten. The solution is good, but it could be improved by including features like snapshots to make it more efficient.

ThinkSystem is mostly for application systems and database systems like Oracle SQL Server. We also sometimes use it for SAP environments.

ThinkSystem's storage performs well, and the price per gigabyte is good, especially on SSD solutions. It's also easy to use.

ThinkSystem could be better integrated with backup software like Commvault, Veritas, or Symantec.

We have been partnered with Lenovo for eight or nine years. We started selling the DE Series when Lenovo released it, so it's been about three years.

ThinkSystem is highly stable. 

ThinkSystem has considerable scalability. 

Technical support is responsive. IBM provides support for Lenovo storage in Poland, and it's very good.

Deploying ThinkSystem is simple. Our engineers take care of it. Deployment can take five to 10 days and requires three engineers. 

The cost of the license is per terabyte.

I rate ThinkSystem DE Series nine out of 10.
