This product is fairly priced. EMC storage with similar specifications was offered to us at double the cost. This was around 20 million local currency, while Dell EMC was 40 million. Almost double the price. That's why we went with Huawei, even though Dell EMC was our initial preference due to their high cost. OceanStor is much cheaper.

The tool's pricing is competitive and affordable. It has the best possible pricing that we can get from Huawei. The prices are fixed and there are no additional costs.

When compared to other options on the market, Huawei OceanStor stands out as the most affordable solution. Payment is determined by the amount of storage capacity required, and we have paid 50,000 euros for our usage.

The price of Huawei OceanStor should be less expensive. It is expensive at the moment. As a salesperson, I always prefer lower prices from the manufacturer because it makes it easier for me to secure orders. However, the solution itself is very good and customers tend to like it. Dell entered the market in 2017, and they marketed their solutions as the cheapest and best option, which helped them secure the most orders in Pakistan. Their strategy was to offer a good solution at a competitive price. I rate the price of Huawei OceanStor an eight out of ten.

I'm not sure of the exact pricing. Our IT team handles the licensing.

The pricing depends on the features the customer wants, such as storage, RAM, and processors, but in general, Huawei is much cheaper compared to Dell and Cisco. I rate the price of Huawei OceanStor a four out of five.

We pay a monthly licensing fee for this solution. The price could be less expensive.

Since Huawei is a Chinese product we've got the tendency to think that it is very cheap. But Huawei is not that cheap. We compared Huawei's price before purchasing. We compared costs per GB to other suppliers, as well. We compared the cost to EMC and NetApp, which are quite nimble solutions. We had to also evaluate the local support that is in our country. We evaluated other criteria, as well. After these evaluations we chose Huawei. It was not only cost. Basically it's not the cheapest but it's in the mid-pricing. We've got the high end, the mid-price, then we've got the low end. Huawei would be in the middle. I will keep it general and not provide a detailed analysis in terms of storage and the All-Flash requirements. In this case, people, especially application guys, should understand that All-Flash is not for all applications. This is important because of the cost of All-Flash compared to other storage solutions. In fact, you need to emphasize this very well and tell application guys that you're spending a lot of money on All-Flash when it's not really required. In my opinion, this is the main thing. Otherwise, you end up upgrading and upgrading and it's quite a budget for All-Flash compared to other storage.

Pay attention to other systems with licensing. This system included everything in perpetual mode. Setup cost and time is very simple. As a new player price is very competitive.
