IBM Z Hardware and Operating Systems Ideas Portal


This is the public portal for all IBM Z Hardware and Operating System related offerings. To view all of your ideas submitted to IBM, create and manage groups of Ideas, or create an idea explicitly set to be either visible by all (public) or visible only to you and IBM (private), use the IBM Unified Ideas Portal (https://ideas.ibm.com).


Shape the future of IBM!

We invite you to shape the future of IBM, including product roadmaps, by submitting ideas that matter to you the most. Here's how it works:

Search existing ideas

Start by searching and reviewing ideas and requests to enhance a product or service. Take a look at ideas others have posted, and add a comment, vote, or subscribe to updates on them if they matter to you. If you can't find what you are looking for,

Post your ideas
  1. Post an idea.

  2. Get feedback from the IBM team and other customers to refine your idea.

  3. Follow the idea through the IBM Ideas process.

Issues with the Idea Portal

Compare this https://ideas.ibm.com/ideas/ZOS-I-4059 with https://ibm-z-hardware-and-operating-systems.ideas.ibm.com/ideas/ZOS-I-4059

The ideas.ibm.com is almost unusable, does not show the votes or how to vote, and the link to the aha portal (the 2nd link) requires the user to login again which isn't very user  friendly.

Please fix this - perhaps make the 1st link be an alias to the 2nd.

    Yes. The bouncing around and the different UI between the base ideas.ibm.com Aha!™ site and the <custom server name>.ideas.ibm.com for specific families of IBM Idea®s makes the experience pretty gosh darn aggravating. I realize this is not specific to z/OS but please pass it up the chain to the project manager for IBM Ideas.
