What I mean is compared to Openfiler, FreeNAS doesn't seem ready for enterprise use. Considering the state of the economy more companies (mine included), are looking for alternatives but only those that will meet the needs of a "enterprise". Thus far Openfiler seems to be the choice for most folks but I like FreeNAS more cause its a tad more flexible. Anyways considering FreeNAS as well as Openfiler are opensource and great solutions is a achievement in itself. I've seen commercial products that aren't even half as good as FreeNAS.
