The community speaks

"The IBM iDataPlex solution puts us on the same level as animation studios on the other side of the world."

- Auchuara Kijkanjanas, managing director, Kantana Animation Studios

" We tell IBM what we need to achieve, and they provide solutions that keep us a step ahead of our competition."

- Frank Bieser, CIO, HEROLD Business Data

"This implementation is an important step towards standardising the IT systems within the entire group. An application-independent server infrastructure based on IBM System x and IBM BladeCenter technology allows us to operate our business applications more efficiently."

- Dirk Kastner, Chief Information Officer, EDEKA Südwest

"SAN storage and virtualised servers used to be enterprise technologies, much too expensive for most schools. That has all changed. IBM’s mid-range System x servers and System Storage disk systems are now within our reach, which means we can benefit from the lower operational costs and superior reliability provided by these technologies."

- Darren Farrow, Network Manager, Lord Grey School
