Hi, UNIX team want to use symantec ODM against ASM. In the past i uses Quick
io. I did not find many technical information on it. What is the benefit to use
a product that you have to pay against a free product like ASM. Thank you.

I don't have experience with ASM, so this is just a guess. I think its not
about technology but more of politics. Being a unix admin, I am in the dark
about ASM and would be tempted to push something I know and hence would be in
control.
That being said, if I was in his shoes, I would opt for ASM even if I had
symantic license. This is because ASM is more native and widely tested against
oracle. This is with assumption though you would take care of storage till I
get comfortable with ASM
I guess you will just need to highlight the danger of putting one more thing
that can fail in the stack. You left with vendors passing blame to each other
while you as customer is hard capped
