What can I say about this system. There are FAR better options out there. Lack of support. Lazy updating. outdated software design, example: Requires Visio 10 to run. won't run with anything but Visio 10. client won't run without Visio 10. Web interface is limited. Must run IE 9-11. even then, operations are limited. We have found that we can old see rack elevations in explorer. But not the power or cable information. We have to use chrome. Some report will not run properly. Stencils are limited and very slow to be built. When you request them. they require you to provide every detail about the item. Screen shots, images, anything and everything. Then they put it together in 6 maybe 12 months. Send you a package to install. Which may or may not work with existing stencils. There is so much to complain about with this out dated tired software. Looking at this latest release, it was in 2013. Pick a different DCIM software. This is junk. If I had more control I would dump it out of our environment.

    The product never worked as advertised. We also experienced non-existant customer support once Rackwise fell into financial trouble.

    Implementation was difficult, and UI/UX was suboptimal.

    Our implementation experience was less than satisfactory. The team implementing/deploying it was unaware of the limitations with the client (has lot of dependencies with Office 2010), plus the solution seemed very slow.
