- provisioning, compression, snapshot, NDM
- Point in Time Protection (SnapVX)
- Transparent Recovery
- difficult configuration - expiration needed

VMAX, great array for the large business
This is used as one of our main storage arrays. It works fairly well for virtual servers and attaching new volumes. This is great because it is fully redundant and can stay up during updates with little to no issues since it has so many controllers. It addresses the snapshot stun issues that our SC9 compellant was having with our database servers.
- It creates a fully redundant connection from multiple controllers that are always up even during updates.
- Once setup there is little to no adjustments that need to be made to the storage array. All that's needed is volume updates.
- The configuration portion is really difficult. If you are not a fully trained Dell storage admin you won't be able to setup this array.
- The GUI is stuck in the 90's and has very little user-friendliness.
