We performed a comparison between Dell vSAN Ready Nodes and Huawei FusionCube Hyper-Converged Infrastructure based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two HCI solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."This solution enables us to make better cost-effective use of our existing hardware and leverage the current infrastructure at a higher level than we could before."
"It's quite easy to install."
"The product gave us a cost-effective way to deploy a highly available server environment."
"User friendly interface and straight forward implementation."
"The management was very easy and I was able to find all that I need in the software dashboard."
"The ease of reaching the support team and their promptness for support is great."
"This product now allows us to migrate virtual machines between nodes as if we had a dedicated $100,000 SAN in the mix without the additional cost and management of the SAN."
"This solution made it possible to deploy a new infrastructure in the shortest amount of time, at a low cost without purchasing expensive hardware storage, and use unused servers."
"The tool's most valuable feature is high availability."
"The most valuable feature is the set of user tools that are available."
"It is easy to install."
"We find the initial implementation process simple and straightforward."
"They are heading in the right direction and moving to integrate everything with a hybrid cloud, and moving workloads back and forth."
"You don't have to spend much time evaluating the hardware. It can be deployed in a short time. The tool is also easy to upgrade."
"Dell EMC vSAN Ready Nodes is scalable"
"If I consider the overall product, I would say that it is an excellent solution that offers very good performance and stability."
"The solution is stable and everything is taken care of through the Huawei support center. They ensure everything is running smoothly. It's been very good."
"The most valuable feature of Huawei FusionCube Hyper-Converged Infrastructure is the relocating of resources."
"The best thing about the solution is that it combines network, storage, and compute functions in one place. Unlike the traditional three-tier setup, you don't need to buy separate devices for each part. This makes it much easier to control and manage everything in one go without switching between different places for different tasks."
"The pricing of the solution is excellent. It's one of the main reasons a customer chooses Huawei. It's much, much better than VMware."
"The product is very reliable. We haven't had any major issues with the product since we bought it."

"It is hard to find adequate technical documentation on their support website."
"I wish there was online support because email return takes a long time and a faster solution should be found."
"I'm sure it needs bug fixes..."
"It is difficult to control all of the hardware components."
"Ability to to test the virtual storage are network area and storage speed from StarWind Management Console."
"The cluster configuration is time-consuming and tedious."
"The Command Center, a free guest VM for management and monitoring, leaves something to be desired. It could have more accurate real-time information and better reporting visuals, which seem to be an afterthought."
"I would like to see an extensive set of cmdlets that could allow for easier automation as well as status management."
"The deployment is done by doing it one by one and could be simplified."
"Upgrades are carried out manually."
"The power switch on the hardware is located in a poor location where it can accidentally be pushed. In an update, they should solve this issue so people do not push it accidentally to have their service go down. A possible solution is the switch should be inside."
"Scalability is an area that could be improved. We are looking at a maximum of 32 nodes now in a cluster, but going to 64 or 128 would be a major advantage."
"Dell vSAN Ready Nodes' deployment is complex."
"Compatibility with other hardware nodes needs to be improved."
"Dell EMC vSAN Ready Nodes is a great hyper-converged system that is a perfect platform for supporting any kind of workload. The only workload that it's not designed to support is big data."
"The solution doesn't scale."
"Huawei FusionCube Hyper-Converged Infrastructure could improve the security of the solution. However, we are comfortable using it. Additionally, there could be more information provided for the solution and the interface could be more user-friendly."
"The solution currently does not have cloud integration."
"I want the product to be used more efficiently and for our system to connect easily with cloud services like AWS, Oracle, and IBM. We can also improve by adding advanced features like snapshots, replication, and encryption, allowing for more growth. Introducing features such as data duplication, data analytics, and AI-driven insights will improve its deployments."
"t would be helpful if the solution was able to collaborate or integrate with other well-known monitoring tools. Right now, you have to work hard to get it configured. It would be a good selling point for them if they could open up their solution to more integrations."
"Technical support needs improvement. There's a lot of language barriers."
