RE: [ActiveDir] OT: Tivoli
That's consistent with my experience as well. Consulting $$$ often get out of control, and complete implementation is rarely achieved.

RE: [ActiveDir] OT: Tivoli
There's still that question of cost. Not just product price (which is generally out of sight), but the cost of training, additional hardware resources, consultants, IBM's insistence on implementing their other add-ons, and IBM's ultimate plan of selling their services so IT can be outsourced. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, July 14, 2003 3:38 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] OT: Tivoli Tivoli today is not nearly as horrible on the Windows Server Platform as it may have been before.
