Rapid development has boosted our projects but complex interface still needs improvement
The best features Dell APEX offers include massive and fast development and massive scalability. It also has an Instant On feature. We can initially pay, and Dell installs more hardware into our systems. We also love the 14-day guarantee period because some companies will not offer it. If we do not want it, we can directly get out of it. They also have a tool called APEX Navigator. We can add more storage power to the computer. The Instant On feature has helped my team significantly because Dell will install more hardware on the system that we are using than what we actually pay for, and when we get a sudden spike in traffic, it automatically auto-scales things, so nothing will break or anything else. APEX Navigator works for us by allowing us to directly navigate to it whenever we want more storage or more computer power, so with a single click, we can do it, adding storage to your phone or changing the RAM, ROM, or something else.

OpEx storage model has simplified SLAs, capacity planning, and cyber‑resilient recovery
The most valuable features in Pure Storage Evergreen One are the SLAs, which are tied to the kind of services that we are going to run. These SLAs govern the consumption and the reporting as well. I find it more attractive when we are tied to a specific SLA, and the VRA is providing the services within that agreed SLA, then there is no requirement for a complete capacity assessment. The entire capacity review, assessment, and recommendations come as part of Pure Storage Evergreen One solution. Pure Storage Evergreen One has a list of services which will provide the services, including cyber resilience. First, they have complete capacity management which is done by them and which will also provide us a heads up on how we are consuming the services and where these services can be improved. Second, it will also provide us some of the key attributes, such as we can take the snapshots and LUN snapshots, which will provide a cyber-resilient copy where data can be secured in case of a cyber attack. We have an option to basically recover the earliest. Third, because of this feature and because of Pure Storage Evergreen One, I am talking about the Evergreen aspect. Because of Evergreen, we also have an option to upgrade the controllers based on the SLAs. If the agreed SLAs are not meeting the requirement, we have a provision to upgrade the controllers and so on. This is giving a good feature for us to evaluate and provide a valuable proposition to the customer who wants to use Pure Storage as a Pure OpEx model.

Quotes from Members

Pros

"The major benefits that Dell APEX provides for me are cost-effectiveness and data security."
"Dell APEX has positively impacted my organization by enabling massive and fast development, and we are not worrying about scalability right now."
"Instead of having to purchase a server and implement it, we subscribe to Dell APEX and everything is handled by the Dell team, which is a very easy and efficient process."
"I found this product to be beneficial due to its consumption model, which allows businesses to acquire infrastructure that supports peak demand scenarios while only paying for what is used."
"The most valuable feature of Dell APEX for us is data availability, ensuring data resiliency and offering protection in case of data loss."
"The two key factors are ease of deployment and flexibility in utilizing and configuring storage as needed."
"I would suggest that people use Dell APEX because it is very good and scalable for that purpose, promoting company growth."
"The most valuable features of the solution are that the support is really good and the deployment is really easy."
"The speed of the product is quite a bit better in performance than the previous peer environment we were running on, and it seems to have a better feature set."
"The Evergreen program is excellent, and the pricing is quite reasonable. My friends who work there are doing very well and consistently achieving strong results. Like any company, they experience occasional downturns but perform impressively overall."
"The most valuable features in Pure Storage Evergreen One are the SLAs, which are tied to the kind of services that we are going to run, and these SLAs govern the consumption and the reporting as well."
"Pure Storage has the highest Net Promoter Score in the market."
"We have snapshots. We put snapshots on disks, and we can save information. In the case of ransomware, everything is in the snapshot. We have a snapshot lock on it, so it's safe."
 

Cons

"I believe Dell APEX can be improved because it is very complex for people who do not know it or are very new to it, so they need to simplify their UI or UX."
"They all need to work on their pricing because you always want to get more for less."
"In Latin America, they need to add more services to complement the solution and provide more options for managing the environment as some customers prefer not having responsibility for infrastructure."
"Dell APEX needs a dedicated support channel to raise support tickets easily."
"I believe the price should be lower as there are many products available now."
"There needs to be some improvement in the response time of the tool's support team."
"Pricing-wise, it can be a bit costly because at times it allocates more resources than necessary, which increases costs."
"To me, I think it's a little expensive. Then again, you get what you pay for."
"I'm not sure if any improvements are needed."
"It would be nice to have support in Swedish."
"Many customers report that the starting price is quite high. However, the overall total cost of ownership can be reduced over time due to features like the Evergreen architecture, which allows savings through less management and environmental benefits."
"I would love to explore more options on what Pure Storage Evergreen One can offer in general, mostly from the cybersecurity perspective and air gap."
"The only potential drawback is that Pure Storage might be overkill if you don't need microsecond response times."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Right now, I don't have the details of the tool's cost, but the price depends on the size of the company and what kind of services you want from the solution. There are some additional costs attached to the tool."
"The pricing is very good."
