User Testimonials
	Amax StorMax SDS	IBM Spectrum Scale
Likelihood to Recommend	AMAX Information Technologies No answers on this topic	IBM When you get a Spectrum Scale solution from IBM you are certain of two things. 1) You will need a specialized storage admin who will be able to take all of its advantages and make available for your organization. It is an appliance that not so many storage admins would be comfortable working on. Invest properly on both hardware and human resources. 2) You will scale forever. We started with a couple of hundred of Terabytes and grew to dozens of Petabytes. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
