Dell Launches Storage Services

ROUND ROCK, Texas -- Dell (NASDAQ: DELL) today introduced the Dell Storage Simplification Assessments portfolio, a globally-consistent set of offerings designed to simplify the evaluation and selection of storage, backup, recovery and archiving environments. The new offerings will help customers improve the management and scalability of their storage and backup infrastructure while helping them cope with the dramatic increase in the volume of data in traditional and virtualized settings.

A departure from the industrys traditional storage and backup consulting approach, Dell Assessment services can deliver information to the customer in days, instead of weeks, by leveraging non-disruptive tools and processes. The offers provide a technical and operational inventory of customers’ environments and help them more rapidly decide which solution will best meet their needs.

“The combination of Dell’s recent storage acquisitions and this new global services delivery makes it very clear that Dell is focused on helping customers address storage growth along the path to simplifying IT,” said Doug Chandler, research director, Infrastructure Services, IDC. “The steps Dell is taking to provide an end-to-end storage portfolio that simplifies the storage market for customers are compelling.”
