Dell VPLEX Reviews Summary
Author infoRatingReview Summary
Sr. Storage And Backup Engineer at OMNIdata Trading, Lda.3.5Dell VPLEX effectively consolidates and virtualizes various storage types, enhancing availability and mobility through features like metro and geo-clustering. While powerful in replication, it needs a web-based management interface and better data encryption.
Senior System Engineer at Unilab Systemhaus GmbH4.0I primarily use Dell VPLEX for VMware services to ensure constant online availability across two data centers. Its valuable mirroring feature allows seamless operations during a failure. However, advancements in Dell's PowerStore systems now integrate VPLEX's capabilities without extra hardware.
Information Technology Service Delivery Manager at Sat Microsystem2.5We use Dell VPLEX for backend connectivity and storage redundancy management. It requires improvement in integration, user interface, and configuration ease. The command-line dependence and high installation costs due to licensing are challenging, along with administrative issues like password management.
Sr Consultant at T-Systems ICT India Pvt. Ltd.4.5I find Dell VPLEX valuable for its replication and data mobility features, allowing seamless internal migration. However, performance report delays can be an issue, and cloud integration would be a significant improvement. VPLEX integrates well with diverse back-end storage systems.
