The quick suggestion and supportive IBM resources for impletion of the IBM product are the best part of using IBM. So someone who hasn't used IBM for development can also work with IBM easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The processing of unstructured data is easy but structured data is somehow difficult. The support for unstructured data should be increased. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The most powerful OS that is being used by me for official use and also it helps to solve daily life problems in an easy way. I have been using this past 3 years and having wonderful experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sometimes multitasking of system overloading applications like photoshop , Android studio , etc, makes the OS feel little laggy even if I am having i7 processor. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What I like best about IBM i is that it is a turnkey text-based OS that reduces the need for IT configuring and interventions. It is made for medium to large organizations, as it is designed to be used with ease, has trouble-free deployment and ensures reliable server operations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is a bit expensive compared to its competitive software. Also, it's scalability should be simplified. Software testing and the compatibility of software products that are available in the market should also be addressed Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

IBM i is well known as AS400/ RPG/ Iseries in the software industry. It has various programming language like RPGLE, RPG, CLLE using which applications can be developed which are more secure, controlled and with highest up time or minimal downtime per year as minimum as 12 minutes downtime per year.. which is considerably much stronger than lots of other technologies Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
