We chose Dell PowerEdge R series because we need to consolidate a lot of physical load into a smaller number of nodes. Their hardware configuration, specifically for vSAN helps us achieve a high-density load in a very low number of physical servers. On top of that, they have lots of expansion ports, so we can increase our load internally on each other with simple upgrades.Incentivized
We save a lot of money using QNAP for the backup of Virtual machines. We installed a QNAP in the datacenter of our Cloud Provider and the cost of the backup and storage that we use is, at least, 1/10 of the cost that we had in the past. We can choose what kind of drives we can install, so if we want affordable we can use 5400/7200 hard drives, if we need speed we can use SSD drives.Incentivized
Good price - Compared to other vendors’ server platforms. In our scenario (virtualization) we found out PowerEdge offers the best price/vCPU and RAM ratio.Customizable - We were able to select optimal memory/disk capacity for our use case. Other platform's minimum requirements were above our needs, hence needlessly expensive.Good warranty and service - Our project did not involve creating a big cluster with a lot of spare capacity, so the next business day warranty came handy.Incentivized
Management interface is very usefulQuick solutions can be produced with flexible storage poolsIt can create a powerful customizable system on its own, along with connectivity features and add-ons.A powerful customizable system can be created with flexible connectivity features and add-ons.Advanced user management can be easily provided either in its own interface or on the domain.It can take on the role you want with its integrated modes or add-ons that you can install later.Most wonderful feature, advanced support service, we never had any unsolved problems and the support engineer was always interested, followed one to oneWith web, ssh, ftp, winscp connections, you can easily access in any environment.Incentivized
Getting DSAT report remotely does becomes a challenge sometimesServer rebooting becomes an issue, it does not starts up easilyServer heats up sometimes a lot, emitting lot of noice
I can not think of any at this moment.Not a con - but security issues are due to users' negligence.Incentivized
It is the best server in the market.
The Dell PowerEdge R range is just intuitive when you have skills engineers managing them in-house, although even with new members of staff on the team, the learning curve is very low providing they have previous general service hardware management experience. From the specification through to the management of this range, the usability is excellent.
We consider Dell's support to be best-in-class compared to other solutions and is also reasonably priced. Their SLA targets have almost always been met, except for minor occasions that have had extenuating circumstances. The service staff is also professional and thorough. Overall, we are very satisfied with the level of support we receive.Incentivized
QNAP NAS is a really good product, but I think the best part is the support for the products. Whenever I have a question or imagine something that won't happen, I can ask the support side. When the support engineer understands what I want to do, he does his best.Incentivized
Installation was easy.
PowerEdge R servers was selected by CIO. I think the servers have lots of benefits for our company and are well placed on our projects. In most business cases they are working good and our management have a clear vision to upgrade them to the same brand with better specs. Hope to see this upgrade in close future.Incentivized
Our historical supplier was a QNAP partner so we started with them.We resell on request also NETGEAR and Synology. Maybe is for the practice on them but we think that they are easier to use and configure.The thing i can affirm with convinction is that are realy durable! I think i never repaired a QNAP NAS and, we resell them from about 10 years.They have all the functionality we ever had to our customers. Incentivized
From the perspective of physical server consolidations, when servers spread across multiple branch and remote offices are gathered into a central data center, this simplification process provides ROI in several ways. One, the configuration control, restriction of server access.Reduce complexity and enable greater standardization of hardware purchases, which lowers costs.Increased security of the move are important.The costs of moves, add-ins, and changes are reduced, as well as the costs of travel time and maintenance.Migrating legacy operating systems to a newer version via rehosting brings similar ROI benefits when it comes to server consolidation.Incentivized
I cannot quantify, but it really saves a lot of money for backup.Incentivized
