We implemented the solution in-house and it took a couple of days from start to finish. 

The business partner provides my company with the service related to the solution's initial setup.

One engineer from my company and one engineer from the customer side took care of the deployment of IBM FlashSystem.

A company called Compro assisted us with the installation. They were good.

We do the implementation and maintenance of the solution using our in-house team.

We implemented it on our own. My team is managing all of the storage devices that we have, and there are six of us. IBM is responsible for its maintenance.

I implemented it. I have experience of ten years in implementing IBM storage. It is very easy to implement. 

We used a third party and had it deployed by IBM.

The entire hardware implementation was done by IBM.

The solution’s deployment took around two days.

I implemented the solution because it is an easy product to set up. It is a pleasure to occasionally get out of the office and assist the data center. 

Previously, integrators helped with installations but weren't utilized much. 

An integrator assisted us with our deployment and our experience with them was excellent. They've been supportive and they successfully helped us to migrate all of our data.

A company could benefit from bringing on a reseller or consultant. They could help with the process.

We have three administrators who take care of the different applications and data that are hosted on this storage. We don't perform maintenance on a daily basis. We may extract some stats for the performance and for evaluating capability. However, when it comes to maintenance, we probably work on it once or twice a month.

I implemented myself. 

In-House implementation

We implemented it with a vendor team and in-house staff.

Usually IBM doesn't sell the product directly, so each installation is carried out either with the vendor or via the GDC technicians. We as storage admins configure the storage system.

It was installed through one of our partners who did a good job.

I've done it myself after all the experience I've had. 

I did the implementation myself.

We worked together with a local partner of IBM for the setup of the product. They showed satisfactory performance. Data migration was achieved by our own team.

We didn't need to use a consultant when we were implementing the solution. We did everything in-house and with our own internal teams.

We deployed with the help of an integrator.

There are three administrators who handle the routine maintenance and the hardware is well maintained by IBM.

I did the implementation in-house.

The implementation was very easy. It's almost a "set it and forget it" kind of product.

We use a partner that does the implementation of the solution.

We implemented with a business partner and IBM.

A vendor team implemented it.

We implemented it in-house. It is very straightforward.

We had IBM's main partners do the deployment. IBM was also involved in the implementation. 

They were very professional and experienced in these complicated implementations. It was was a very good experience because they knew what they were doing.

We used vendors' support for the implementation.

We had approximately three engineers for the implementation.

We did the implementation ourselves.

We have 10 technicians that do the maintenance for the solution.

We have a team of three engineers that do the implementation.
