Nowadays, the product has started to become a bit expensive in the market, at a time when Nutanix offers virtualization software, which is even cheaper when compared to VMware. In order to penetrate into the market, the pricing of servers like PowerEdge C and other HCI solutions should be lower. Price-wise, I would want to see the product offer more flexibility. The hypervisor offered by ESXi is not compatible with different types of hypervisors. In the case of Nutanix AHV, the hypervisor is compatible with the other types of hypervisors. The aforementioned aspects need to be considered for improvement in the product to achieve high scalability. There is some trouble with the stability part of the product, making it an area where improvements are required.
Data center management and disaster recovery have different life cycles and different licensing. It would be easier if data center management and disaster recovery were combined.

It would be better if it worked with SMTP servers on the cloud. Right now, it only allows notifications via the SMTP server. In the next release, I would like to have a better processor.
The reliability needs improvement. We have had some issues. The issue is that Dell's no longer selling this product in the near future. It's almost the end of life.
Overall, it offers a lot of good features for the industry. I don't recall any that are lacking per se. We had a few minor issues with compatibility on the latest version during the installation process.
I can't think of anything that needs to be improved at the moment. A lot of evolution is occurring with Blade PowerEdge, including, what call, the blade servers. The VxRail should be opened to allow other virtualization platforms to be used.
What is a blade server? A blade server is a minimal, utilitarian computer server that is designed in modular sections. The blade server is optimized to reduce the need for a larger footprint by reducing power consumption and removing certain components, while still having enough functionality to meet enterprise requirements. Multiple blade servers are housed in blade enclosures that deliver networking, power, management, interconnectivity and cooling. Instead of taking up horizontal rack...
There has been an increase in quality issues.
The price must be improved.

The product’s cost needs improvement. The cloud solutions are less expensive than this hardware-based platform.
The product’s pricing could be a little cheaper.
They should improve the solution's RNA process.
It should be improved in terms of future expansion. We should be able to have additional free slots for future extensions in terms of memory.

The current memory could be improved.

There could be some more ports added in the future.
A feature that needs to be added is the ability for full container storage.
