Huawei directly engaged with us. 

The solution's deployment is very complicated. It will take a total of one and a half days to deploy the solution's 18800 version. We need to plan where to get the power and check the prerequisites, like the cooling power.

We deployed Huawei OceanStor Dorado in our data center. Around 10 to 15 people are required to unbox the solution and install it by labeling, cabling, powering on, etc.

We needed an engineer to deploy the solution. One or two engineers are enough to maintain and deploy the solution.

We used a Huawei consultant. The process went smoothly and we were happy to have their assistance.

Setting it up is easy because one person can take the box to the customer site, assemble it in the rack, and get it up and running. There's no need for a complex implementation process since we're mainly using this for expanding our existing storage. We can complete the integration in a day, another day for OS configuration, and I'd estimate two to three more days for installation. This process is straightforward, and we don't require weeks for implementation because we're clear on its purpose and don't need special permissions or credentials typical of enterprise storage vendors. In terms of maintenance, we haven't replaced any parts except for the disk in our initial systems. There have been no major issues with controllers or hardware models, and the system remains stable. The software also runs smoothly, with the occasional need to open a service request for things like new patches or software updates, which we perform regularly to keep all our systems in the field up to date.

Huawei has integration tools and their support team did everything for us, it went very smoothly.

I'm already a technical person, so I don't find any difficulty with the setup process. I can handle it myself. I do not need an integrator or consultant to assist me. 

Our IT team did the implementation of the solutions.

The implementation and maintenance are done by two technicians.

We are the distributors for this product and our resellers are the ones who do the implementation and deployment.

We had a consultant assist in the implementation. We just provided the help connecting the cable and installing the rack.

We implemented and deployed in-house.

Not many people are needed for deployment maintenance. A minimum of two people can deploy and manage it.

My company has an in-house team that handles the implementation and services for our clients. If the client purchases a maintenance contract then we take care of that, as well.
