Whether a lot of people use something is not a valid criterion from which to make a decision. The decsision should be based upon your organization's specific needs. Then compare those with organizations with similar needs to see if they are adopting this technology.

Off hand I'd say SAN is being used by many of those that can benefit from it. Which has nothing to say about whether
your organization might be in that same category.
