Find out what your peers are saying about Dell Technologies, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Lenovo and others in Rack Servers."We like the iDRAC card which gives us remote access to the server out of band. That's fantastic because if a box is misbehaving, I'm able to get into the bare metal and repair the operating system without needing to go out to the branch office, which could be anywhere in the UK."
"The solution's analytics helped to decrease production downtime by more than 60%. PowerEdge also helped to reduce data processing and has reduced the timing for any workload."
"The availability is excellent."
"We are able to do remote monitoring and installation of hardware and software, and that tends to be very popular with customers."
"They are very stable. They are rock solid. I am happy with them."
"The GUI is accessible and everything is pretty much upfront. You don't get lost in navigating between the tabs."
"I love the updates from the iDRAC, they are very nice. The installation is easy. Replacement, if something fails, is so easy and so good."
"The speed of delivery is something super valuable. Reliability and performance are also valuable."
"The most valuable feature of the solution stems from the fact that it is more stable than AMD for VMware."
"It uses well known architecture and it's easy to develop for."
"It is stable and easy to manage."
"Overall, the solution is excellent, though Dell could improve the monitoring."
"Until they get new technology and density, it would be nice to see four nodes in a one-year package instead of a three-year package."
"The way we can manage the environment through the solution's GUI could be improved."
"Their support can be better. The speed of their support is not always great because the access to the data centers is sometimes complicated, so there is back and forth."
"Access to specific card models can be limited, and sometimes we require smaller cards than those offered by Dell."
"The price is the only thing that can be improved."
"I would like them to be more flexible when implementing more capabilities."
"They could improve the time between new versions of the product."
"The shipment time can be improved. When we order Intel products, we have to wait for a long time. They can increase the local services and engineers in China. Local engineers will be able to know and understand customer problems much better."
"We have to scale it ourselves but it scales. It depends on the software because it's mostly the hardware platform that Intel is managing."
"When you have an Intel Server System, the prices may be much higher since it is a different processor, making the solution's pricing part one of its shortcomings where improvements are required."
