    PowerMax is suited for a mid-tier to enterprise company. It can easily take on and manage what it may take with various storage arrays. This can work in any vertical, healthcare, manufacturing, financial, insurance, etc. It can easily manage massive workloads and deliver very high-end performance. Is not feasible for small companies, this can and would be very expensive to maintain and operate, and it truly doesn't make sense when a much smaller array can be used.

    Hitachi SVOS is well suited for all environment in todays world. Storage plays a pivot role in all services provided in the current digital age. The Hitachi SVOS along with their blade proides magnificient perfromance boost which is not comparable to any vendors. Companies which has a huge database should consider this an option to evaluate. In addition orgnization who has a highly virtualized enviroment could also look at this product during their evaluation stage. This product is less benfit due to its cost in an environment where they have more number of physical servers as there are other solution which can be leveraged at a lower costs as they would not be utilizing the full feature set provided by the appliance

    It combines with enterprise level storages very well. Due to its high reliability & uptime, it is valued greatly by such institutes. Secondly, it's advanced virtualization reduces the complexity & cost, which in turn results in maximizing hardware utilization. Performance efficiency is amazing even under heavy workloads. Built-in cache optimization and automated tiering help ensure efficient data placement.

    Hitachi Vantara
    There is definitely no comparison to any of the products when comparing to Hitachi SVOS. I beleieve this is the only unique product which can leverage older storage systems. Dell Avamar can be a great product if you are considering DR replication alone. The DR replication ratio is quite high in Dell avamar. However given that the current bandwidth available outweights this benefit
