    I work at a company developing tools for performance and cost monitoring, as well as application and infrastructure troubleshooting. So, with the three points named answering the previous question, I can give ISC an 8 out of 10. I have been working with ISC since 2005, and over this time, ISC has maintained a consistent approach to growth and continues to innovate.

    Weka.IO is really well suited for anyone who needs high availability and high-performance computing capabilities with just the click of a button. It has really made us able to provision and replicate applications in the public cloud, and to not spin up a ton of costs from that cloud provider.

    Usability
    IBM
    Why didn't I give the full 10 out of 10? My problems are still: since I have been working with the software for more than 20 years, the installation on Windows hosts that are part of domain networks. In these networks, installing is nearly impossible due to group policies. In the opposite: without group policies - especially for Windows updates - you can barely manage the ISC server when on a MS Windows basis. But because the software works seamlessly after a successful installation and support is very responsive and helpful, ISC gets a 9 out of 10.

    We can't really complain about anything with Weka.IO. It works as it should, and we've never had any real issues. We feel they offer the best latency and workload options for the file types that we see the most often. The on-demand scaling is really helpful to our costs.

    IBM Spectrum Control has highly influenced our decision-making process and planning based on the analytics we receive from data. It is the only unique product that I have worked with offering great services under different environments. It monitors data both inside and outside our company and vives feedback on time for planning on different programs. Optimization of data is reliable and the storage planning is done to enhance easy access.

    We really like that their platform is based on hardware-independent storage, and all Flash. It's exceptionally fast and very easy to use. Almost anyone could use it, as it's very user-friendly, and they in a sense guide you through the process. It's very helpful and helps us manage costs very well.
