IBM Power servers are more secure and offer more reliability than the HPE solution. It is also much more scalable and can grow with the organization's needs. HPE's server solution can too, but it is more 'clunky' and requires more configuration, whereas IBM's Power servers seem more like they are built around this.
Power Servers are excellent for large enterprise businesses that need the extra reliability and scalability they offer. However, they may not be well suited for smaller organizations or companies looking more for the basics since the extra features and the better service offering does up the price. For large companies, this is less of an issue
