"The convenience, because we can swap very easily swap hard drives when one goes down."
"The defining characteristic of the Dell PowerEdge Rack Servers lies in their ability to function as the pivotal nexus of the server infrastructure."
"I've found the reliability, support, the capability to grow, and the ability to add other Dell solutions to be very valuable features."
"It's allowing us to scale out a lot faster than before."
"The iDRAC feature is valuable. It is for remote handling. If there is a connection issue when we deliver a server to a remote site, we only need to ask them to switch iDRAC on. We then have direct access to the RAID server configuration without having switched it on."
"Dell PowerEdge Rack Servers is a user-friendly solution that provides performance stability."
"Dell PowerEdge Rack Servers powered by Intel are easy to use, are easy to manage with OpenManage, and have extended support for five years."
"The iDRAC is an excellent service; it allows us to install and deploy our software remotely."
"I like Lenovo's XClarity Controller, and the ability to control and deploy Edge Servers through this XClarity interface."
"It is a stable solution. The product doesn't have any problems when it comes to stability."
"Occasionally, there might be extended wait times between placing an order and receiving the delivery."
"Dell PowerEdge Rack Servers could improve the bezels in front of it."
"The performance could be a bit better."
"The price is very high."
"While I wouldn't call it a problem, physically mounting the servers into the rails that come with the servers can be a challenge. They could be engineered to be a little bit easier to use. It's not that significant, we can manage it, but you need at least two people to do it together because they're a bit heavy."
"In terms of energy consumption, these servers are not bad. However, ecological responsibility is a world issue. All servers can be better in terms of energy consumption and heat dissipation."
"The T150 is a little bit bulky for what it is. I think if they created a T150 version with small form-factor drives, that would be an ideal solution. Currently, it is a tower box and it has quite a big footprint..."
"I'd like to take the complexities out of all the different tools that surround it, like OpenManage."
"Airflow in the servers can be a problem. Sometimes we cannot add CPU to Edge Servers because there's not enough airflow in the appliance."
"With Lenovo, when it comes to its HCI-related part, which includes ThinkAgile, users may face issues as VMware licenses are not linked with ThinkAgile."
