The Backup software is easy and safe to use.

The best thing about this product from my point view was that it has been very easy for me in managing our data with its features such like backup management etc., It's really good if you are looking forward towards having your own server at home or office then definitely go ahead because there will be no problem regarding any kind of software installation process which makes everything much easier than before! There isn't anything bad but maybe some people might have problems while using their

Pros
  • Provides ease to manage all kinds
  • Easy configuration
  • Backup option is available as well, saves lots.
  • Very fast when compared others storage options
Cons
  • Not the best

Great alternative when looking something similar

The price for this product has become more affordable than traditional hard disk drives which makes it perfect if you don't need speed and want some space capacity at your fingertips! In my case that was not needed since there were already enough virtual machines in our infrastructure. A few things such as having better software support from VMware would be nice but they are working towards making sure their products work well with other vendors' offerings so maybe those will come eventually…

Pros
  • It also helps make maintenance easier compared vs older ones
Cons
  • Maybe

Dell EMC All-Flash Arrays - Simply put...a good investment

i have been using Dell EMC for about a year now. I have a Dell EMC VNX8500 with iSCSI in a DMi. The system provides failover capabilities and allows for quick recovery if any component fails. I was able to migrate from a legacy SAN to a Dell EMC VNX8500 with iSCSI and experience minimal downtime. No real downsides to this system. I would look at this system if you are needing better storage space. We have been seeing a 30% improvement in data storage with this system. We can now store more data

Pros
  • It was easy to setup and deploy
Cons
  • I would not recommend this product if you need something cheap

The best thing that i like about this product is its ease in installation along with hardware compatibility among different OSes which makes it easy for IT managers who are working from other sides than software development side. It's not compatible with Redhat Linux Operating System(RHEL). So they need to be aware before buying such products especially if you want to use them within your organization/company where RHEL or CentOS is used widely. We have been using these arrays since last 4…

Pros
  • Easy Installation
  • Robust performance when compared against similar array devices.
  • Cost effective solution as comparered agaist traditional SAN solutions
  • Low maintenance cost (when comparing costs)
Cons
  • Non availability os red hat linux support
