| Project manager at Sopraco NV | 4.0 | We use Lenovo ThinkSystem Rack Servers as a data center host, finding them easy to set up and maintain. While lacking some advanced features, they offer good value for money and have resolved past performance issues despite some scalability limitations. |
| Technology director at Infodive Representações e Serviços ltda | 5.0 | I use Lenovo ThinkSystem Rack Servers for applications, including VM and application servers. They are reliable, easy to set up, stable, and provide good technical support. I have seen a return on investment and also considered Dell and HPE. |
| Senior Finance Executive at Texitech | 4.5 | Lenovo offers an excellent enterprise-level computing solution with their ThinkSystem Rack Servers. They provide advanced storage options, the latest processors, and comprehensive IT solutions, satisfying a wide range of customers and surpassing competitors like Fujitsu in feature offerings since 2015. |
| IT Specialist at a aerospace/defense firm with 1-10 employees | 4.0 | I've used Lenovo ThinkSystem Rack Servers for over five years primarily for testing, finding them stable and easy to upgrade in terms of RAM and disk space. Although they excel in performance, I find their pricing higher compared to competitors. |
| Senior Custormer Engineer at Afcor PLC | 4.5 | I find this solution offers good hardware, stability, and scalability, with excellent technical support and easy setup. However, its installation could improve, and it's more expensive than some alternatives, though I still recommend it highly. |
| Service manager at Crescent Technologies | 3.5 | I used Lenovo ThinkSystem Rack Servers across BFSI and media industries due to their IBM technology, PFA, and XClarity tools. Although deployment is easy, technical support and server monitoring dashboards need improvement for better performance analysis and problem identification. |
| Head of the IT support at Energoprojekt Holding a.d. | 4.5 | I use this power-efficient, stable, and scalable Lenovo server for document management. It's easy to set up, well-priced, and customer service is good. I occasionally get rare PCI card alerts, but I'm very satisfied, rating it 9/10. |
| Manager of networks and infrastructure at a government with 5,001-10,000 employees | 2.5 | I found setup easy and it's scalable, but the solution is unstable. RAID issues are constant, often failing and requiring rebuilds. Local support is poor; I'd recommend Dell or HP for critical applications. |
