Overall Satisfaction with Dell PowerEdge R
Dell PowerEdge R series are very handy and easy to deploy rack-based servers. I am using Dell PowerEdge R710, R720 & R730 for more than 5 years. We use these rack servers as Hypervisor i.e., VMware ESXi as well as a backup server. Most of the virtual infrastructure is running on this series. You can use these rack servers as standalone ones, or like a hypervisor, etc.
- Reliable memory feature is unique.
- Easy in RAID configuration where we need OS and storage partitions.
- PowerEdge iDRAC are way more easier to administer.
- iDRAC interface can have some more shortcuts.
- Getting DSAT report remotely becomes challenging sometimes.
- Virtualization compatibility.
- Proactive alerts.
- Easier to manage by IT resources.
- Perfect for standalone cases.
Both have different prospects, I have been working with Dell mostly, hence always prefer Dell.
