Changing the Economics of SMB Storage

Welcome to the Dell Storage Expert Center, where you can explore a variety of strategies for lowering storage costs and complexity of your existing applications. In this ever-evolving age of technology, organizations of all sizes, across a wide range of industries, are experiencing an explosion of data. Unfortunately, many small and midsize businesses don’t have the capacity to manage this massive influx of digital data.

This new, complex environment, along with overburdened IT budgets, makes it difficult for SMBs to effectively manage their storage systems. Today, however, it’s more critical than ever that businesses implement solutions that enable them to efficiently store, access, back up and archive data while also ensuring that performance and retention policies are being met.

With extensive experience in all aspects of data storage, Dell offers a variety of affordable and flexible solutions, providing the tools to automate, optimize, scale, protect and integrate data easily and cost effectively. To find out more about developing an efficient data storage solution, check out our video above and take a look at “Tools and Techniques for Reducing Your Data Storage Footprint,” a featured white paper from Dell that outlines reliable approaches for data reduction and deduplication.
