    Considered Both Products
    IBM
    Chose IBM Storwize (now part of FlashSystems)
    IBM Storewize is the best among other products available in the market. Many features such as scalability, data configuration, and data security show this system are best for our business. We can't compare it with others.

    Simpler to use. Storwize is reliable and is using IBM technology and not some unknown application. Proven performance and easy to stack and configure. Sizing is simple and the options are more than I need for my business. Rack compatibility is something you may not realize …

    Storwize does not have the performance of FlashSystem, but it’s low cost and high capacity options make it competitive as an option for point-in-time copies and backups.

    Chose IBM Storwize (now part of FlashSystems)
    We prefer IBM over other solutions because IBM just seems to be more resilient, easy to use, and simple to deploy. Other products may have a steep learning curve, or may be start ups with not so much reliability.

    With the latest announcements of v5K and v7K, IBM is on target with the competition out there on the market. The only [thing] missing is a great marketing campaign to sustain a 12-24 month period to whet the client's appetite. We as a partner are doing what we can to educate …

    IBM SVC (ran for several years)
    ESS E & F models (yeah those are old)

    We used the old DS4xxxx series of storages and have worked with most brands of storage and I will always pick Storwize over the rest.

    It is an alternate platform, so having multiple vendors reduces risk.
