I recently purchased an individual Workstation, the Apollo II, from IX Systems for Personal use. My Sales Account Manager, Thomas P., was very helpful in tailoring a solution for my needs.
While definitely not just a 'click and buy' process, I was pleasantly surprised to understand all the testing and verification done by IX's Engineering Team prior to shipping out a product. This alone would give me confidence in recommending any of their solutions to my Enterprise Work Environment, but it doesn't just stop there:
The Hardware, Components, and Build-Quality are well-sourced, and the PC-BSD Desktop Operating System is simply "Miles Beyond" anything else out there, period.
The system is remarkably well-engineered, quiet, and runs surprisingly cool. Having seen many similar Workstations with comparable System Specifications run much hotter and noisier under much lower load, it is evident that a lot of testing goes into the pure Physics and overall makeup of an IX Systems Product.
I simply cannot recommend anyone purchase from anyone other than IX Systems, even if it means saving a few extra dollars. The Mileage, Quality, and Enterprise-Level Support truly make for a complete package.
