Dell PowerEdge T-Series can be improved by keeping up with the times. As we move more into AI, the newer processors going into the servers will be great.
For Dell PowerEdge T-Series, definitely provide more options. They definitely need to do something about the shortage. I know it is global and they, at the end of the day, buy their CPU, GPU, and RAM from different vendors, but there should be a fix for all the shortages that are happening because the prices are growing exponentially. Some of the things from last year to this year have gone up by 100%, 150%. You are talking about if a server cost around $100,000, now it costs around $200,000, $250,000. Definitely the client will look and ask why they need to put this investment. Dell gave an overview to people and to the clients through official emails that they have shortages. So if you need anything, do some forecasting. But here in the market, a lot of forecasting did not take place. The geopolitical issue that happened between the Gulf and Iran definitely affected the pricing. As vendors, either they should have more stock here or they should find another solution. It is not just about Dell PowerEdge T-Series or about the PowerEdge server, it is across the board. The whole portfolio is having shortages now.More functionality is needed. The software needs to be upgraded with the current generation. The user interface should be redefined a bit and made better and more intuitive. They should give more options when it comes to Dell PowerEdge T-Series, maybe better cooling which would make us have more performance. We can upgrade the CPU and later on the GPU. It has more functionality. I should not be locked in to specific types of GPUs or CPUs. I can use whatever I want, the same on the PowerEdge servers.
I do not think there is any such improvement needed from Dell PowerEdge T-Series. Everything looks adequate. There is no challenge as of now in the tower models. For the tower model, I think we have to make more cores into the CPUs so that we can use it for more usage and more use cases.

It is not easy to move around tower servers, especially since it is heavy to load the server somewhere. The heaviness of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required.

Dell's support services are an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required. Dell's support team should possess more knowledge and experience. I rate the overall product an eight out of ten.

What I want to see in the next release for Dell PowerEdge T-Series is not much more than what they already have; it is fine now.

If I could wish for one improvement, it would be to put more support for drives, as it has good hardware overall.

Dell PowerEdge T's resolution is an area of concern where improvements are required. I want the solution to provide an increased resolution to users.
PCIe drivers could be included in the storage for good performance.
I would like to see Speaker and more AMD processors running. I would like to see PCIe 5 deployed.
I would like to see more options to be able to support GPU cards. Right now, there are only one or two modules that provide this option.
