Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"For non-complex applications, the IBM Cloud works fine and the price is much lower than the competitors.""This product is very good because it is accessible in remote locations, and anyone can deploy from any place.""There is no installation for this product because it is a cloud product.""It's straightforward, has a good environment and is cost-effective.""The beauty of cloud service providers, especially public cloud service providers, is that they are scalable every time when you need them because their payment model is pay-as-you-go.""This is a predictable and dependable service.""What I like most in IBM Public Cloud is how easy it is to create serverless functions. They are called IBM functions, but in AWS, they are called Lambda functions. Those are pretty standard, and another thing I like the most is that you have fewer restrictions on the amount of data you can transfer across those functions. IBM Public Cloud is way more flexible than AWS. I also like that IBM Public Cloud is pretty straightforward to integrate. As long as you have all the tools IBM provides you, getting everything up and running is straightforward.""The most valuable feature of IBM Public Cloud is the AI integrations."

"One key feature is getting to choose the Virtual Machine configurations while setting up the server, which is an automated process.""Self-provisioning, easy to choose from WebLogic 11g to 12c.""The automated features of auto-purging in 12c helps clear disk space on a routine basis.""The auto-backup, incremental backup and restoration features can be invaluable for management.""Backing up and recovery for my domain is very easy and fast. In addition, applying patches and undoing applied patches is effective and easy to do.""The solution's technical support is good.""The framework supports auto-configuration. A lot of features are already there. It is reliable and user-friendly to develop code, back-end engineering, or locate specific information such as addresses.""The ability to manage security and access the server from any location with complete security using SSH is perfect for performing crucial tasks, even while travelling."

Cons
"The product should offer more computing, similar to Amazon.""The deployment can be a bit of a pain. There are a lot of packages and a lot of options and it can require complex configuration to get it right.""An area for improvement in IBM Public Cloud is getting up-to-date information on how to set up everything. It's hard to find new documentation.""The solution’s pricing could be improved.""Maybe performance enhancers and reports could be better improved. If they do so, it would be better. Of all the drawbacks I saw, this would be the biggest enhancement.""The solution needs to be more autonomous. It should let the DL go to allow for more jobs on the cloud. It could have a better interface as well.""They do not have a very good virtual network implemented, and the VPC is the most important feature that needs to be improved.""They could improve on customizing reporting capabilities."

More IBM Public Cloud Cons →

"The product is satisfactory but we need more training on managing the machine itself. For example, how do we add more storage, how do we extend a specific portion? I would like to see videos illustrating some of the technical tasks that we often need to do.""There are issues with the application's development, including small glitches and errors.""The product's high price is an area of concern where improvements are required.""Needs better integration with other Oracle/non-Oracle products."
