Yes the IVECO is as reliable as the Cummins, but suffers non recognition in the US market, being basically the same engine. Most in the US will see the " Made by Fiat" label and steer clear of it.
The Iveco 6.7L is not "basically the same" engine as the Cummins 6.7L. The Cummins has a larger bore and shorter stroke (107mm x 124 mm) than the Iveco 6.7L (104mm x 132mm). This alone will make the characteristics of each engine different with the max engine speed being lower in the Iveco(less horsepower). They also have different pistons, rods, and many other internal parts. Their compression ratios are different too with the Cummins having a 17.3:1 and the Iveco having a 17.5:1 compression ratio.
