FreeNAS is well suited for most storage serving scenarios, whether it be for an office file server, backup destinations, data replication across the internet, or as backend storage for virtual machines. It can serve various types of clients via a plethora of standard protocols and can easily integrate with existing infrastructure using LDAP authentication and so on. It's pretty simple to use (it helps to have at least a basic understanding of the underlying technologies) and almost maintenance-free. One scenario that springs to mind that it may not be appropriate for (yet) is as S3 storage. However, S3 functionality was added in a recent release and may have improved greatly since then. I'm sure it will eventually work very well for this.Incentivized
iOS works well when you want solid control over institutionally-owned devices. This generally works best when you play by Apple's rules and buy through them and use Apple School/Business Manager - so if you're going for a BYOD model, this probably isn't the way to do [it]. There is a wide variety of management tools, but bear the costs of each in mind.Incentivized
The FreeNAS web interface is modern looking. It makes tasks like provisioning drives into raid volumes easy.The ZFS raid option allows you to add in an SSD as a cache drive to increase performance.Incentivized
Extraordinary compared to other OS on the lookout for the mobile devices. In the event that somebody needs an ad free and secure insight.Apple iOS give you heaps of inbuilt elements by which there is no need of any outsider applications.Incentivized
Not good for beginners as it requires deep understanding of networking and storage.Most of the good and required features are not available in free version.Incentivized
Replacing the battery is hard and shouldn't be.I know it is for security, but the ability to remote control iOS and help users would be great.Security can be tight with the iCloud and passcodes and you can brick a phone if you are not careful.Incentivized
In all likelihood, common users will either already have experience with iOS on their iPhones, or will pick it up quickly. The UI is generally simple and mostly visual. Power users, on the other hand, may feel constrained by the inherent limitations built-in. Root access, terminal commands, and deep customization are not really to be found here.Incentivized
There were some things that can be found by other users on forums and Google and some things that were not.Incentivized
Lots of help articles online for just about everything under the sun. I have never personally had to engage Apple's support team to comment on their helpfulness.Incentivized
FreeNAS effectively uses all resources really well and it is highly recommended for in premises NAS. It has unlimited ROI as it is really free and open-source. The only payment we need to pay is when we need any support from those guys. FreeNAS helps us to effectively do our work with the legacy systems as it manages all the components really well. FreeNAS although rebranded to TrueNAS will still be there until our legacy systems run.Incentivized
The software updates have a wide coverage for iPhone models and I love updating software for additional features and/or improved software stability. It has also genuine feel of the phones they offer. Easier to set up and use. It helps me do more productive tasks. If I have the latest phone model, I would have additional software advantages that are already included in my OS.Incentivized

Positive as far as cellular usage, phone tracking, and security for our users.Negative as far as battery replacement on older phones.Costs would be similar to android phones so security/simplicity is our main point here.Incentivized
