I have worked a lot the Dell EMC mid-range storage portfolio over the years, at Storage Field Day 14 it was my first opportunity to hear Dell present the whole combined portfolio as one in a customer facing environment. Dell discussed by the Unity and SC products, their features and functionality. With the new combined portfolio, Dell EMC has a product for everyone in the midmarket space.
