I understand. But keep in mind that all of these products come with license agreements that make it a violation to benchmark and publish. So while many of us do it. Those that don't want legal problems keep their results to themselves.

Others can evaluate the results of our evaluations by where we focus our dollars. We don't buy things that didn't meet the testing criteria.

Wish I could offer you more but certainly your management wouldn't expect others to violate a license agreement that they too wouldn't violate. They are just going to have to apply some critical thinking skills.
