It's exciting to see so much community engagement since we launched our new Q&A features.
People have questions about the products and markets they are researching. And IT Central Station members consistently come through with great answers to help!
So I'd like to share with you some of the most interesting answers this week:
Carlos Etchart writes "the key points to consider are: security, performance, and CAPEX vs OPEX" and goes on to explain each of the points. Thank you Carlos!
Tim Williams, a Top 5 contributor, wrote "HCI is on-prem, so it's simpler and easier to manage and integrate with applications and your network"
Shreekumair Nair, a CEO who is on the EDR Leaderboard says "Generally, EDR tools do not replace traditional tools like antivirus and firewalls; they work beside them to provide enhanced security capabilities."
An IT Security Coordinator at a healthcare company writes "It depends... If you don't need it and you can get by on defender as a 80% solution then go with defender. If you need carbon black and mcafee do that. It comes down to your needs and what's good enough for you."
I especially like the answer from our expert reviewer Darrin Leboeuf who describes his recent implementation of a third party solution AvePoint Backup for O365 & Dynamics 365. Darrin's is one of the community's leading experts on MS Bitlocker.
Our Expert Member Art Hebbeler explains "Many BPMN tools (Appian, Bizagi, Visio, etc.) have the ability to create models in the BPMN 2.0 standard, which makes them (at least in theory) transparently sharable between BPMN-based applications." He goes on to share the advantages of using a BPMN 2.0 tool. Thank you Art!
Kudos also to Scott Francis and Linda Mpanga for their detailed answers.
