According to Lenovo, these new solutions provide organizations with fluid resources that can adapt to the evolving needs of a business.

Customers can combine the two new brands to create the foundation of a future-defined data center with simplicity, agility, flexibility, and future-proofed preparation.
From a price perspective, Lenovo states that they are keeping it simple by allowing customers to streamline their IT with ThinkSystem solutions.

Customers need to gain insights quickly and apply them to their business in order to gain an edge over the competition. Using ThinkAgile, customers are able to adapt to changing business needs by delivering the speed, simplified management, and agility of cloud services while retaining control and governance of on-premises IT. ThinkAgile is pre-integrated, pre-built, and pre-tested and delivers automated lifecycle management, decreased TCO, and reduced need for IT resources to maintain the platform. The new ThinkAgile systems include ThinkAgile SX series for Microsoft Azure Stack and the ThinkAgile SX rack level solutions that integrates networking with hyperconverged offerings.
