Chose Quantum DXi Series

Cons
  • We had some expansion issues with the DXi 8500s and needed to implement a secondary DXi6902 system to allow for the expansion required.

Support Rating
The actual support personnel and the support provided is very good, and they are typically very responsive to any request that come in. We have never had a bad support experience. All support has been based in America and have always been able to resolve any issues or problems that have come up. the automated call home feature works well.
