I am impressed with Dell EMC Isilon's scalability. The system's ability to scale from terabytes to petabytes of data allows us to easily expand our storage capacity as our needs change. In addition, Isilon's support for multiple protocols and ease of use is one the great features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One potential downside of Dell EMC Isilon is its cost. Isilon can be a relatively expensive storage solution, particularly for smaller organizations with limited budgets. Additionally, while Isilon is user-friendly, its advanced features and customization options may require more technical expertise to fully utilize. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
