"The tool's most valuable features are stability and scalability."
"We find the deduplication and compression features to be most valuable, as well as that of the backup solution inside."
"The user interface, reporting, and management are good, and we are quite happy with the performance."

"Systems run solidly."
"The most valuable feature is that it is centrally managed, as it is quite easy for our customers to manage everything, end-to-end."
"Access to VMs is now faster due to the centralized management console."
"It has improved system performance, batch times for off-hours processing, and reliability with production applications."
"Finding a fully bundled, deployed, and configured solution with a short delivery time and unique support is really attractive."
"The XtremIO All-Flash array delivers performance, reliability, and deduplication."
"The solution has a complicated front-end."
"HPE ConvergedSystem needs to improve its price."

"I would like to see better manageability and integration with third-party tools."
"The tool has shortcomings in its performance monitoring part."
"This is an expensive solution."
