Dell PowerEdge R-Series Reviews

We are in the aerospace industry. We use the servers in a security-type production.

It improved our management and the product manager's life. The product is a bit complicated but it does the job.

The lightness, automation, and the automatic process that it performs without too many interventions are good. It's just plug-and-play.

In terms of PowerEdge's cyber-resilient architecture approach to security, since the product is on-prem, it is very protected.

PowerEdge Servers helped to reduce unplanned production downtime because of the configuration of our product, it is active-active. It has 99% high reliability. 

So far, we haven't thought of anything that could be improved in the product.

In terms of energy use, it takes up a lot. I wouldn't say it's economical, compared to other products. It's not as economical as HP. NetApp, for example, is 2800 against 800, and Dell is almost three times more massive.

The product is stable.

Scalability is easy and convenient. The product enables us to be more productive and flexible.

I give the support a 10 out of 10. The people are a 10 but I´ll give the waiting time that it takes to get to the technical support and the people an eight.

Positive

In the past we used other products that were not Dell, they were both very durable. Dell is on another level.

I use Dell's professional services during failures and upgrades mainly. The service is excellent.

I did not deploy the product because the company asked to bring in an external professional service to do the installations. My experience with them was pretty straightforward.

I would rate Dell PowerEdge Rack Servers an eight out of ten. 

Our primary use case is for computing. We use PowerEdge for all of the laboratories for all of the computer science labs. 

We implemented PowerEdge to improve our flexibility and power. 

We need a lot of computing power, and PowerEdge provides a balance between price, power, and storage. It improved our flexibility by enabling us to add more servers to the clusters. When you replace servers, there is no downtime. The most important aspect is that there is almost zero downtime. 

I reconfigure servers and explain them to the IT office as code when I handle them. The ability to manage all the servers from one console is beneficial because I'm managing hundreds of them from one place. It saves us hundreds of hours a year in time. 

PowerEdge Dell to reduce unplanned production downtime to almost zero.

Hyperscale is the most valuable feature. I like how I can stack many servers on top of each other, and they work like a cloud.

I would like for there to be more disc space.

We have used PowerEdge for 10 years.

PowerEdge servers are highly stable. 

It's easy to add more servers to the cluster.

The solution’s technical support team is pretty responsive.

Positive

We use a lot of Supermicro servers, which are very good in terms of customizability. Supermicro servers can also be a lot aggressive in pricing. We use Supermicro for really lower-end and high-end servers. We use Dell for a lot of the middle-end servers.

It is easy to deploy Dell PowerEdge Rack Servers.

We have seen a return on investment with the solution in terms of stability and ease of use.

I wouldn't say the solution's pricing is the best, but it's very competitive.

Right now, we're using a lot of 13, 14, and 15-gen PowerEdge servers.

Many of our customers who do encryption at rest use Dell's TPM chip capability, which works.

PowerEdge Servers are very good for handling the evolving needs of high-performance workloads. We were able to use the solution to scale many of our compute nodes, which are used by many of our customers who need a lot of high computing. So, we're pretty happy with it.

Nowadays, PowerEdge is very reliable and has helped reduce unplanned production downtime twice as much as five years ago.

Overall, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.

We buy the servers without an OS and use Linux and open-source options with it. As we are a web hosting company, these servers primarily serve our customers by hosting their Websites, VPS, Emails, Domains, and other services. We also use them for our own infrastructure and our products.

We're a global web hosting company with data centers throughout the world, so we need lots of powerful, reliable, and efficient servers. That’s what Dell PowerEdge servers are. We've been using them for many years and trust the product. 

It has good quality control, and some of my colleagues were able to see this first-hand during a visit to the Dell factory.

We received good demo equipment that helped us pick the best solutions for our business. Plus, we can choose optimal setups and configurations that best fit the needs of our web, cloud, and virtual private server hosting clients.

The servers always arrive with the latest firmware and are very good at handling high-performance workloads. They meet our ever-growing needs, including those associated with AI.

The pricing is very flexible, and the commitment to delivery and working with partners is excellent.

Dell offers us good warranties and is very good at delivering on them when necessary.

In terms of energy consumption, PowerEdge servers are okay. We do find Dell servers to be more efficient than others; however, it depends on the CPU usage and workload. Our newest processors are more power-efficient, and NVMe SSD disc drives help save even more energy. User-friendly OpenManage console helps us efficiently manage the lifecycle of PowerEdge servers. However, we are not using it at full scale.

The servers are easy to set up, and we use a variety of server security features in our current environment. An important advantage is that we can make OS patches and hotfixes without a reboot.

We are quite satisfied with our latest configurations. We don't have big complaints at the moment. 

The response time could be better. Everyone is very busy nowadays. It's important to get issues resolved fast. 

We've used the solution for around three and four years.

The stability is very good. I'd rate stability nine out of ten.

Dell PowerEdge servers improved our IT infrastructure. We have fewer failures and good warranties, and by keeping everything up to date and patched, we reduced unplanned downtime by 20% to 30%. We've also noticed that these servers are 20% more powerful than similar configurations.

As the fastest-growing web hosting company with over 2.5 million clients worldwide, scalability is crucial for us. Dell server scalability is good. If we need more capacity, we just buy more servers. The most recent example is our purchase of 800 Dell servers.

Dell offers helpful technical support, including help and guidance when we have new server configurations.

Positive

We've been on the market for 20 years and tested a lot of the competition. We've used at least three different vendors before Dell.

The initial setup is straightforward. 

First, we need to ship our servers to a remote location. However, for racking and installing operating systems, et cetera, it takes about one hour. 

The ROI is good. I can’t give the exact numbers, but in terms of outcomes, it is profitable.

While pricing is very important, it's not all about the cost. With Dell, we have fewer issues, and updating processes are faster—which makes it worth the cost.

Overall, the solution is fairly priced and cost-effective. The overall pricing is moderate. 

We have considered a public cloud server before choosing Dell.

We are Dell partners and customers. 

I'd advise potential users to try Dell. I would recommend the solution.

I'd rate the solution ten out of ten. I'm quite satisfied with how everything is going. We do not have any complaints. 

We use Dell PowerEdge Rack Servers for our office automation and our VDI needs. It offers a robust and reliable solution that can scale with our business requirements while providing the flexibility and manageability necessary to streamline IT operations.

As a customer, we find that these servers offer excellent durability and require minimal maintenance over time. They deliver strong performance, backed by reliable support services. The ability to control the servers remotely through the rack interface is particularly valuable, as it eliminates the need for onsite visits or physical access. All that's required is the password, providing full access to manage the servers efficiently without any additional hassle.

The server energy consumption has shown significant improvement. Looking back about a decade, energy efficiency wasn't a major concern, leading to higher consumption levels. However, there's been a noticeable decrease in power consumption in recent years, resulting in a smaller environmental footprint. This reduction in power usage is largely attributed to the servers becoming more compact, requiring less power overall.

Addressing the evolving demands of high-performance workloads requires a versatile range of server options. By conducting a thorough assessment of our requirements and performance expectations, we identify the most suitable model from the diverse array of choices available. This process ensures that we select a server that aligns closely with our specific needs. With such a broad spectrum of products to choose from, there is consistently a model that fits our requirements effectively.

It significantly reduces unplanned production downtime. In our entirely virtualized environment, we can seamlessly place one server into maintenance mode, conduct complete hardware and software upgrades, and then transition to the next server. While the software solutions provided with virtualization products play a key role in this process, Dell servers also contribute to this uptime reliability. Remarkably, we have experienced no downtime whatsoever in the past five years.

The combination with the OpenManage, along with the ease of installation, configuration, and maintenance, is the most valuable aspect for me.

There have been certain environmental concerns, but they don't pose a significant issue for me as my focus is on maximizing performance, especially in providing a fast API environment for both my customers and myself. Larger customers might benefit from servers that strike a better balance between performance and environmental considerations.

We have been working with it for approximately twenty years.

When comparing Dell's PowerEdge Rack Servers with competitors like HP's Proliant servers, as a Dell partner, we have experience with both brands and their respective services. In our assessment, Dell outperforms HP in several key areas, notably in terms of support and ease of maintenance. While HP offers OneView for server management, which some find easier to use than Dell's OpenManage, this might be a subjective opinion. Overall, Dell's PowerEdge servers excel in delivering superior support and streamlined maintenance processes compared to HP's Proliant servers.

Deployment typically takes around one hour.

We have noticed a return on investment.

The pricing is considered fair.

Overall, I would rate it nine out of ten.

The product is used for virtualization. I work for a gas company. We have a lot of locations in France. We use some applications to pilot the process of making gases. In each location, we use Dell PowerEdge to implement and supervise the process of gas production and processing.

The solution is very strong and reliable. The capacity is very good. Whenever I want to add an application server in a production location, I choose Dell PowerEdge. The solution is simple to manage. The maintenance and support are really good. It is easy to use. We did not face any big problems that we couldn’t resolve.

The solution’s sales policies must be changed. Sometimes, we need the tool for a small use case. The vendor must provide cheaper versions of the tool for smaller use cases.

I have been using the solution since 2015.

The tool is stable compared to other products.

The support is really good. The support team is reliable. Compared to HPE, Dell's support is better. The support contracts of Dell are very clear. The communication we have with the salespeople is also very clear. The support team is quick. When we have a problem, we can find a solution quickly. We do not have to wait or send multiple emails to explain our problems.

Positive

We were using other servers before. However, there were long delays in deliveries. We use Microsoft’s operating system. I choose Dell PowerEdge Rack Servers because its compatibility with Microsoft is really good. We can use it with other operating systems, too. We also use HPE's servers.

The solution is expensive. We buy it for three years but use it for five years by extending the guarantee. We have been using it for ten years. It makes it past the depreciation value for a long time. We have to buy new servers every five years. If we need two servers, we buy one, use it for five years, and replace it with a new one. We are using it economically.

We provide products to beverage companies. We also provide medical gases to hospitals. In my company, we are not managing energy. We have a special team with many people who manage energy. We are buying energy. We need to do all the things that are needed to keep the production safe. Energy is not our focus. I have never thought about energy conservation in three years.

We use MPLS and SD-WAN. We have a private network for all our locations. The PowerEdge connects our VLAN and the users’ VLAN. When we want control of our servers, we can take the control directly. If we want to see whether the equipment is working well, we can take control of the switch that communicates to the server.

We have a special VLAN. It’s an administrative VLAN. Only IT persons like me have access to the VLAN. The access is quick and easy because of Dell PowerEdge. The implementation is simple. We use it every time and do not have a problem with it.

We don't use many other servers. We do not have problems with switching Dell PowerEdge on and off. It is really simple for our technicians. The tool has helped us reduce unplanned production downtime. In all our racks, we have an inverter. We have a program to notify the server to back up and shut down cleanly.

When there is a downtime, we only check whether the processing is fine. We have not had any problem with it for many years. It works well. We can do everything we want to do with the tool. When we chose other servers, we faced problems within a year. Dell PowerEdge is a good solution. We have been using it for a long time. The vendor must provide servers for smaller use cases.

Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

Si nous avons besoin de deux serveurs, nous en achetons un et on s’en sert pendant cinq ans et puis, nous le remplissons avec un nouveau. Nous nous en servons de manière économique.

Quels autres conseils avez-vous?

Nous fournissons des produits à des compagnies de boissons. Nous fournissons également des gaz à usage médical aux hôpitaux. Dans ma société, nous ne gérons pas l'énergie. Nous avons une équipe spécialisée composée de plusieurs personnes et qui gère l'énergie. Nous achetons de l'énergie. Nous devons faire toutes les choses nécessaires à la sécurité de la production. L'énergie n’est pas notre priorité. Je n’ai accordé aucune pensée à l'économie d'énergie en trois ans.

Nous utilisons des MPLS et des SD-WAN. Nous avons un réseau privé pour tous nos sites. Les PowerEdge sont connectés sur notre VLAN et le VLAN des utilisateurs. Lorsque nous avons besoin de contrôler nos serveurs, nous pouvons directement prendre le contrôle. Si nous voulons vérifier que l'équipement fonctionne bien, nous pouvons prendre le contrôle de la commande qui communique avec le serveur.

Nous avons un VLAN spécial. C’est un VLAN administratif. Seul le personnel informatique, comme moi, ont accès à ce VLAN. L'accès est rapide et facile grâce au Dell PowerEdge. L'implémentation est simple. On l’utilise à chaque fois et nous n’avons aucun souci avec.

Nous n'utilisons pas beaucoup d’autres serveurs. Nous n’avons aucun problème à allumer ou éteindre les Dell PowerEdge. C’est vraiment simple pour nos techniciens. Cet outil nous a aidés à réduire les temps d'arrêts de production imprévus. Nous avons un inverseur dans tous nos racks. Nous avons un programme qui alerte le serveur pour tout sauvegarder et s'éteindre proprement.

Lorsqu’il y a un temps d'arrêt, nous vérifions seulement si le traitement fonctionne bien. Nous n’avons pas eu de problème avec ça depuis plusieurs années. Cela fonctionne bien. On peut faire tout ce que l’on veut avec cet outil. Lorsque nous choisissons d’autres serveurs, nous avons des problèmes la même année. Dell PowerEdge est une bonne solution. Nous nous en servons depuis très longtemps. Le fournisseur devrait fournir des serveurs pour des cas d’utilisation à petite échelle.

Darüber hinaus haben die inhärenten Sicherheitsverbesserungen dieser Server unsere digitale Verteidigung nachweislich gestärkt, während ihre außergewöhnliche Zuverlässigkeit uns in die Lage versetzt, Ressourcen dynamisch zu skalieren und Lastspitzen nahtlos zu bewältigen - ein entscheidender Vorteil in der dynamischen Unternehmenslandschaft von heute.

Die Dell PowerEdge Rack Servern haben wirklich eine entscheidende Rolle dabei gespielt, die Nachhaltigkeitsinitiativen unseres Unternehmens voranzutreiben. Vor ihrer Implementierung bestand unsere IT-Infrastruktur aus einem weitläufigen Archipel von Einzelmaschinen, die jeweils einem bestimmten Anwendungsbereich zugeordnet waren. Bei meinen früheren Tätigkeiten in anderen Unternehmen habe ich aus erster Hand erfahren, wie unübersichtlich Serverlandschaften sind, die manchmal auf bis zu 80 Maschinen anwachsen! Glücklicherweise wurde die PowerEdge-Serie mit Blick auf die Serverkonsolidierung entwickelt, so dass wir unser gesamtes IT-Ökosystem in einen schlanken und effizienten Betrieb umwandeln konnten.

In der vergangenen IT-Ära befand sich jede Anwendung in Einzelhaft und war an eine eigene Maschine gebunden. Dieser antiquierte Ansatz verschwendete nicht nur Platz, sondern verschlang auch Energie wie ein ausgehungerter Drache. Die Dell PowerEdge-Rackservern haben jedoch einen Paradigmenwechsel eingeleitet, indem sie die einst weit verzweigte Anwendungslandschaft auf einer einzigen, einheitlichen Hardwareplattform zentralisieren. Diese agile Infrastruktur überwindet die Einschränkungen ihrer Vorgänger und ermöglicht die nahtlose Migration virtueller Maschinen zwischen Servern als Reaktion auf schwankende Arbeitslasten. Das Ergebnis ist eine beispiellose Flexibilität, die sich von den Beschränkungen der Vergangenheit befreit.

Was ist am wertvollsten?

Die außergewöhnliche Verarbeitungsqualität der Dell PowerEdge Rack Servern hat mich immer wieder beeindruckt. Nachdem ich Lösungen von HP und anderen Herstellern ausprobiert habe, sticht der Service von Dell als nachweislich überlegen hervor. Sowohl intern als auch bei externen Kunden übertrifft er stets die Erwartungen und optimiert unsere Abläufe. Diese unerschütterliche Zuverlässigkeit ist der Grundstein für unsere weitere Partnerschaft mit Dell. Außerdem geht die außergewöhnliche Handwerkskunst über den Service hinaus. Diese Server haben sich als bemerkenswert zuverlässig erwiesen und weisen nur minimale Fehlfunktionen auf. Während der routinemäßige Austausch von Festplatten aufgrund der internen Komponenten zu erwarten ist, ist die Gesamtintegrität der Hardware wirklich hervorragend.

Was muss verbessert werden?

Dell ist in der Lage, die Größe seiner Rack-Server zu optimieren und den physischen Platzbedarf zu minimieren, ohne die Leistung oder Sicherheit zu beeinträchtigen. Dieser Fokus auf platzsparendes Design ermöglicht uns eine größere Effizienz und Flexibilität in unserer IT-Infrastruktur.

Wie lange nutze ich die Lösung schon?

Seit über fünf Jahren arbeite ich mit Dell PowerEdge Rack-Servern.

Was halte ich von der Stabilität der Lösung?

Dell PowerEdge Rack Server sind für ihre Stabilität und unerschütterliche Zuverlässigkeit bekannt. Ihre robuste Konstruktion und modernste Technologie sorgen für eine außergewöhnliche Betriebszeit und gleichbleibende Leistung, selbst bei anspruchsvollen Arbeitslasten. Diese Server bilden eine unnachgiebige Grundlage für Ihre kritischen Anwendungen und sorgen für ein beruhigendes Gefühl und unerschütterliches Vertrauen in unsere IT-Infrastruktur.

Was denke ich über die Skalierbarkeit der Lösung?

Wenn es um Skalierbarkeit geht, lassen Dell PowerEdge Rack Server keinen Raum für Zweifel. Ihre Fähigkeit, sich nahtlos an wachsende Arbeitslasten und Datenanforderungen anzupassen, ist wirklich unvergleichlich. Ich würde nicht zögern, sie in diesem entscheidenden Punkt mit einer perfekten Zehn von Zehn zu bewerten.

Wie sind Kundenservice und Support?

Meine Erfahrungen mit dem technischen Support von PowerEdge waren außergewöhnlich gut. Ich bin sehr beeindruckt von dem Niveau des Service, den sie bieten. Die Schnelligkeit der Reaktion ist bemerkenswert, und je nach unserer spezifischen Servicevereinbarung stehen kompetente Techniker bereit, um zu helfen. Das Fachwissen, das sie besitzen, ist beispiellos und übertrifft ständig meine Erwartungen. Ich bin mit ihrem Service sehr zufrieden.

Wie bewerten Sie den Kundenservice und -support?

Positiv

Welche Lösung habe ich vorher verwendet und warum habe ich gewechselt?

Ich bin zwar neu in dieser Organisation, aber Dell scheint hier ein gut etablierter Partner zu sein. In meiner vorherigen Position nutzte mein Unternehmen jahrelang HP, aber leider machten Probleme mit der Qualität und dem Service letztendlich einen Wechsel erforderlich. Die Support-Infrastruktur von HP entsprach einfach nicht unseren hohen Ansprüchen, so dass wir zu Dell wechselten, was eine wichtige Rolle bei der Entscheidung spielte.

Welche Erfahrungen habe ich mit den Preisen, den Einrichtungskosten und der Lizenzierung gemacht?

Es ist völlig klar, dass die spezifischen Lizenzierungsanforderungen von den Feinheiten der von uns eingesetzten Maschinen diktiert werden. Es handelt sich um einen integralen Bestandteil des Betriebsprozesses, und obwohl ich nicht in der Lage bin, auf die Feinheiten der Preisgestaltung einzugehen, da ich mit den spezifischen Kosten nicht vertraut bin, kann ich mit Zuversicht behaupten, dass es vom Standpunkt eines Unternehmens aus gesehen das vorrangige Anliegen ist, die kosteneffizienteste Lösung zu finden, insbesondere bei der Verwaltung einer weitläufigen Infrastruktur.

Welche anderen Ratschläge kann ich geben?

Dell PowerEdge Rack Server haben durchweg mein höchstes Vertrauen verdient und erhalten von mir eine perfekte Bewertung von zehn Punkten. In allen Unternehmen, in denen ich das Vergnügen hatte, zu arbeiten und in denen Dell die Hardware der Wahl war, war meine Erfahrung durchweg zufriedenstellend. Diese positive Erfolgsgeschichte ist genau der Grund, warum die strategische Entscheidung getroffen wurde, von anderen Herstellern wegzugehen und Dell als unseren zuverlässigen Partner zu etablieren. Auch wenn ich nicht die Entscheidungsgewalt innehabe, würde ich, wenn ich die Wahl hätte, von ganzem Herzen für die Beibehaltung unseres Engagements im physischen Bereich kämpfen. Aus meiner Sicht hat es etwas Beruhigendes, wenn die Geräte physisch vorhanden sind, so dass ich mich direkt um ihre Pflege und Wartung kümmern kann und die greifbare Präsenz unseres technologischen Rückgrats erlebe. Selbst angesichts der Verlockungen der Cloud würde ich mich immer wieder für Dell entscheiden.

Die allgemeine Tendenz scheint in Richtung einer höheren Maschineneffizienz zu gehen. Um wettbewerbsfähig zu bleiben, hat Dell wahrscheinlich nachgezogen und ressourcenschonende Maßnahmen eingeführt. Dies ist ein bedeutender Einfluss und wahrscheinlich eine treibende Kraft hinter der Abkehr vieler Unternehmen von herkömmlichen Servern oder - im Fall des PowerEdge - der Umstellung auf die Azure Cloud-Plattform. Letztendlich scheint die Energieeinsparung ein wichtiger Faktor bei dieser Umwandlung zu sein.

Welches Modell nutzen Sie für die Entwicklung dieser Lösung?

Im Hause.

We are using Dell PowerEdge Rack Servers for the data storage of applications.

Before implementing Dell PowerEdge Rack Servers, we had many servers. Thanks to the implementation of these servers, we now have all the servers concentrated in one solution.

We had multiple solutions that did the same job, and thanks to this solution, I now only have to use one solution. It not only improves our space; it is also much less expensive for our company.

Dell PowerEdge Rack Servers have the PowerEdge Cyber Resilient Architecture approach to security. It is the most important thing for our company. It is not an option for us to continue working without this execution modality.

Dell PowerEdge Rack Servers are very sustainable in terms of energy consumption. If I have many applications and solutions, the consumption will be high, but if I work with only one, the consumption level will be better.

Dell PowerEdge Rack Servers are good for handling the evolving needs of high-performance workloads. All the data I work with is very heavy. We use PowerEdge servers because they can handle the data without any problem. This is very reassuring.

For us, the issue of electricity pollution is very important. This system is perfect for us in terms of sustainability.

Using PowerEdge Rack Servers has not much affected the overall flexibility of our operations or business. For us, it has always been very important to have a fast response time to keep our customers satisfied, even before we implemented the servers. That is why it has not impacted our flexibility much.

The user interface is very simple, and the support team is always happy to answer any questions we have. They are very easy to contact.

Whenever I have worked with Dell, I have felt a lot of simplification.

The price is very high.

I have been using Dell PowerEdge Rack Servers for two years.

Dell PowerEdge Rack Servers are very stable.

At the moment, I do not know. Next year, we are planning to invest more in these servers, and I guess this is a good sign about its scalability.

Their support is perfect. There are never problems communicating with them. If you have any questions, you can contact them very quickly.

Positive

We were using another solution previously.

I was not involved in its implementation. It was my team that was involved. What I know is that it was very easy to implement.

In terms of implementation strategy, we spoke with Dell and our specialists, and everything was very easy.

We have a hybrid cloud. We use Microsoft as the cloud provider. Dell PowerEdge Rack Servers are currently being used only in our department.

The biggest ROI is time in terms of the time it takes you to access each application and upload data. It would be difficult if there were different solutions.

Its accessibility is extraordinary.

They are a little expensive, but in the end, with everything they provide you, the solution is perfect.

We did not evaluate other solutions.

I would rate Dell PowerEdge Rack Servers an eight out of ten.
