A week ago I asked if anyone had any experience with Iomnis servers, but I received no responses. I know it is ISC this week, but I thought I would ask again.
Iomnis Servers - Good, Bad?
Just so you don't think everyone's ignoring you, I will respond negatively.... I've never personally used Iomnis servers.
Then, again, I've never used Intransa or Pivot 3 servers either, so I am not a good industry benchmark :)
I've never heard of anyone using Iomnis. Indeed, you are the first person who I have ever heard ask.
I did find one historical reference on IPVM from an integrator we trust saying, "We have started using more Iomnis product which is basically Dell hardware optimized for video processing and storage. Great product." That said, I am not sure about such 'optimizations'.
I checked their website and I didn't see any red flags. They do have an IP camera focusing tool that looked interesting.
We gave Iomnis our requirements and they came back with a spec with our requirement of Intel. We then placed the order and in a few days we have the computer as requested. I have used them on several sites including with great results.
Any idea of how they are better or worse than other hardware providers? I thought most players in this space have calculators and claim to 'optimize' servers.
The service is what got me…just call and give them what you are looking for; camera count, resolution, FPS, and Retention and they send you the quote with documents. They send the information to my supplier and I get a quote.

I forgot to mention in my last post they offer a 100% money back guarantee.
It's my understanding this is a guaranteed, non-proprietary estimating/engineering tool for optimization and configuration. Is that correct? Has anyone experience using??

It appears that Iomnis provides very useful tools that can save an integrator a lot of time and heartache. And I like the fact that they are not making bold claims about proprietary technology. But history has shown this has been a pretty tough business model since the servers and workstations have long been commoditized. Does anyone know what kind of percentage premium an integrator pays for machines from Iomnis vs buying from someplace like Dell? Any info on the financial wherewithal of the company?
