  • The UI is very clunky and uses Java, which I am not a big fan of.
  • It is difficult to see performance metrics or utilization. Tegile or Nimble provide a superior window into your performance and IOPS on LUNs and VMs.

Alternatives Considered
Stacks up very well. In storage bake off's, evaluating these products as a whole, PowerMax normally outpaces the vast majority.

  • Dell EMC Unity is the improved version of EMC VNX. It has all the features in VNX with better performance.
  • NetApp all flash is faster and more expensive. It performs better with Citrix systems and VDI solutions.
  • HP MSA storage system is less performant and less expensive. It works better for file and CCTV data storage.
