We recently introduced IDEAS Membership, a free-with-registration offering designed to provide new levels of access to insight, trends, and opinion. IDEAS Membership provides industry professionals with an easy way to keep up with IT infrastructure development highlights, including our new Benchmark Checker app, which lets you quickly verify vendors’ world record benchmark performance claims.

With IDEAS Membership, you can:
- Verify vendor performance claims with the Benchmark Checker app. Simply select a server and see which benchmarks the server has been tested in and its best overall ranking in each test.
- Receive up to five free, enhanced product profile reports each month, sent straight to your inbox. The reports include extended product descriptions and details of all of the popular industry-standard benchmark results for that product in a convenient, easy-to-share PDF format.
- Learn about the most popular storage and server products, as viewed by visitors to our website.
- Stay informed with details on major server and storage product releases and updates.
- Enjoy expanded Benchmark Gateway access, with tables of the Top 25 benchmark results for each test.
Of course, for the serious industry professional, there’s no substitute for our premium subscription offerings such as IDEAS Advantage for IT Buyers and Competitive Profiles for IT Sellers. These represent the gold standard for independent IT infrastructure insights and analysis, with comprehensive data coverage, deep historical perspectives, detailed part-level pricing, and server performance guidance. IDEAS Advantage and Competitive Profiles are powered by RPE2, the atomic unit of compute.
IDEAS Membership is open to anyone with an interest in enterprise IT infrastructure issues. Registration is free, quick, and easy. Give it a go – get started today!
After you’ve signed up, we’ll be eager to hear your feedback. We have plans for additions to IDEAS Membership and would love to have you help develop it throughout 2012 and beyond.
