Overall Satisfaction with Dell EMC Unity

We use Dell EMC Unity exclusively for block storage. We have ESXi, Windows, Linux, and AIX hosts attached to this SAN.

Pros

  • Simple management interface
  • Performance has been very good. No issues with latency.

Cons

  • Management is too simple. It would be nice if there was a mode for more advanced users. This is Unity's biggest weakness in my opinion. For an engineer that has been managing enterprise storage for 10+ years, I feel like the Unity is a step backward. While it is super simple for newer engineers, there are configuration options that I wish were available to me as a more experienced user.
  • VMware integrations are somewhat clunky and operations are time-consuming.
  • It allows us to provide SSD class service to our Tier 2 infrastructure.
Functionally it is perfect for us and what we are using it for. I just wish it had a more advanced and less simplistic interface.
