IBM Storwize, IBM's resilient product
- I would like to highlight the most positive aspect I have seen in the products of the IBM Storwize family, and it is the ROI that we can choose when we offer real-time compression with the IBM V7000 family. In truth, this feature is excellent, and we have seen how customers save storage resources, rack space, power and management.

My review of IBM Storwize 2019
- The investment has always been positive in most businesses as long as it's suited well for the client. Especially with the added benefit of the space efficiencies.

- Great ROI within a short period of time (months)
- Freed up storage admin to focus on Architecture
