We performed a comparison between Dell PowerEdge VRTX and HPE ConvergedSystem based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Converged Infrastructure solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We now find that the solution is quite stable."
"It is simple to use and it's user-friendly."
"The security is very good on the solution."
"We were satisfied after we upgraded to a professional next-day on-site support."
"From a hardware perspective, it's interesting. The selling point of VRTX is that everything is built-in. For a small company that doesn't have a server room or the capabilities of hosting several servers, VRTX has four blades. The equivalent in regular server models would be four servers, which is a minimum of 4U, but it could easily be 8U, and then it would have storage. The storage is included inside the enclosure, and it would require a storage unit. It would also require connectivity, which would be ethernet or another protocol switch. From a software perspective, it's a little bit more integrated. You have an integrated way of managing the whole thing, including storage and networking. It has an internal network that can also be useful. I know for a fact that Dell is almost fazing out the product, and it is not that available anymore because it will just cannibalize their sales. They want to sell the more expensive stuff."
"The online UA is very good in comparison to others."
"It's a good solution when you don't need a lot of IT."

"The solution's most valuable feature is its ability to restore lost machines. Essentially its high availability capabilities are extremely valuable to us."
"The scalability could be better."
"When we first started with this product, we had some difficulty with it."
"The storage can be improved."
"The support must be improved."
"Management of storage and networking is web-based, slow, and difficult."
