The solution's initial setup process was straightforward. On a scale of one to ten, where one is difficult and ten is very easy, I rate the solution's initial setup a nine out of ten. I don't know how long the deployment process took since it was already deployed before I joined the organization. Also, the solution requires very little maintenance. A person who is a specialist or an IT technician can take care of the maintenance.
View full review »The initial setup of the Dell EqualLogic PS series is simple. The physical connectivity and rack mounting time depend on the size of the deployment. For example, if we have five of the Dell EqualLogic PS series we can mount and do the cabling within two hours. The initial configuration can be done within an hour. The estimated time to deploy from start to finish in this scenario is four to five hours maximum.
One person can do most of the deployment, such as configuration, but a helper is needed to do the mounting of the cables.

It was before my time, but I think it was easy to configure. It is not a difficult solution, so it is easy to set up and work with it. The maintenance it requires comprises regular updates.

The initial installation and setup in 2011 was straightforward. EqualLogic is pretty simple in that way.

I wasn't present for the initial setup. It was a long time ago. I can't speak to how long it took or how easy or difficult it was as a process.

The initials setup is not complex at all. It's pretty straightforward. We found it to be easy. We didn't run into difficulties.
Most are very easy setups compared to the technology that was available six years ago. They've really improved a lot of the setup since then.
Deployment is pretty fast. You can have everything up and running within a week or two.

It was pretty straightforward. The first time around, we didn't completely understand how much space we were going to need for things like Snapshots and replication. So we didn't buy enough storage the first time.
