Find out what your peers are saying about Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Cisco, Dell Technologies and others in Blade Servers."I like the robustness of the machine. Similar performance could likely be achieved with other configurations, but this machine is very stable."
"We've got a few of them, because we needed some really large machines. So far, they've been working pretty good."
"The most valuable features of HPE Superdome X are speed, performance, and resilience."
"This product is very reliable."
"One of the really cool things about Superdome is, depending on the model you choose, you can put 8-16 blades in it."
"SDX gave us a very large RAM and we need that for the large-scale graph-handling applications."
"Superdome X is a system that can compete in terms of performance and uptime, but it's now standard. That is the great value. There are competitors like IBM, for example, but IBM has a propietary operating system. With Superdome X, you have a system that can run Windows, Red Hat, or VMware, but in a mission critical server."
"PowerEdge servers have high CPU processing power, and the support is also good."
"It is a scalable solution."
"One of the main features that attract customers to buy their products is the great management tool and almost zero failure rate, making it easy to use."
"Technical support has been helpful."
"The performance is good."
"I have found the compression capability the most valuable feature."
"The product's initial setup phase was easy."
"The security of the product is very good."
"I'd like to see the onboarding of some storage class memory to really expand the already very large RAM, into something that could be even much bigger."
"It would be helpful if you could do the maintenance completely online."
"What would make it better from my point of view is if HPE spent more time on testing with the actual built-in Red Hat Linux drivers, as opposed to always trying to say, "Use our driver.""
"I know we support Windows and I think it's Red Hat, and I'd like to see more OSs supported."
"HPE Superdome X can improve by adding a lot of cloud capabilities to allow this solution to be cloud-ready in case the customer wants to move it to the cloud."
"In this specific model, it could be beneficial to have a server configuration similar to Cisco, like the kind offered in HPE Superdome Flex X280. The ability to separate the chassis is important because we are forced to use two chassis even with lower loads. So introducing more flexibility in the Superdome environment would be helpful."
"Its customer service could be better."
"There has been an increase in quality issues."
"The price must be improved."
"HP is a little bit lower in terms of price."
"There is some trouble with the stability part of the product, making it an area where improvements are required."
"A feature that needs to be added is the ability for full container storage."
"It would be easier if data center management and disaster recovery were combined."
"The reliability needs improvement."
