Dell ECS vs. Iron Cloud Object Storage

Dell ECS is well-suited for organizations that can't afford to store data in the public cloud. It also provides a much cheaper solution to store archived data that is not frequently accessed. However, it's not suitable for small-scale storage requirements as it will not be cost-effective. Also, it can't be used for low-latency databases as it will cause performance issues.

• Multi-application support, legacy as well as modern.
• Cost effective in storing archives.
• Advantage of having cloud technology within datacenter.

Incentivized

• Maintenance like firmware update, is not that much automated.
• Not suitable for small org as entry level requirement is high.
• Much improvement is needed over UI. The dashboard can be improved to give a broader picture.

Dell ECS is working well for our organisation. On the one hand, we can leverage cloud technology; on the other, we can keep it in our own data centre, thus ensuring full security for sensitive data. With Dell ECS, we are saving a lot on the monthly bill that we used to pay for the cloud storage solution.

Because of Dell's proven reliability and stability, it's well-suited to large enterprises compared to its competitors. Its Geo-distribution technology protects data across sites in a very cost-effective manner. It supports storage for both modern and legacy applications. Its archive storage costs are much lower than those of its competitors. It saves monthly bills as we own the hardware.

Incentivized

• Much more cost-effective than other cloud solutions. This has saved the overall cost.
• Requires less maintenance and fewer human resources than traditional storage solutions, thus decreasing overall cost.
• Easier to have backup across geos without having a full backup copy. This decreases the backup cost.
