Comment

Welcome to the first Storage magazine eNewsletter of 2015 - and many thanks to the many readers who took the time to contact us after our last edition with their thoughts on the direction and editorial content of the newsletter. I'm delighted to say that the vast majority of comments were positive and the feeling seems to be that we are more or less on the right path editorially; it was noted though that there seems to be some demand for more 'from the horse's mouth' type war stories that give more detail on the processes that businesses have been through in addressing their storage issues. This is certainly something we will endeavour to supply.

There is also clearly a wider requirement for more strategic guidance and 'thought leadership' in a world where it is easy to get carried away by this week's "buzzword bingo" game - with that in mind we promise to continue to bring you relevant and genuinely informative opinions and bylines from industry leaders, analysts and the best minds in the business. After all, that is what has made Storage magazine the lasting and unique success story that it is.
