Overall Satisfaction with IBM Power servers

Pros

  • It's reliable.
  • It's fast.

Cons

  • A solid IDE for editing programs. SEU was simple and solid. Then it became outdated and support for it ended as the language continued to evolve. That's fine. But RDi is expensive and shaky at best, and VS Code, while free, is severely lacking even the modicum of features RDi has.

Do you think IBM Power delivers good value for the price?

Not sure

Are you happy with IBM Power's feature set?

Yes

Did IBM Power live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of IBM Power go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy IBM Power again?

Yes

  • It's the heart and sole of our IT infrastructure.
I like the fact that the SQL database engine is built INTO the OS. I believe this allows it to perform far better than other OSs where the SQL db engine has to be installed on top of the OS.
