    Cloud Elements shines when you want to offer multiple options to the user on a type of system, such as supporting integration to CRM and wanting to offer Dynamics, Salesforce, and HubSpot on equal footing. If you only have a single integration with a single system, using Cloud Elements adds an unnecessary layer of abstraction.

    We are always working on improving our brand - good customer care and efficient services are the roads to that. By picking IBM's AI automation, we are able to coordinate and connect processes around the company to deliver efficient services on store and online on our website. We've been able to seamlessly automate and digitize most of our operations.

    Pros
    Discontinued Products
    • The API itself is very robust and easy to use, being a standard REST interface, standard HTTP response codes, well-packaged error messages, etc.
    • Their uptime is great! I think I've seen one (short) 5-minute' blip' the entire time we've been connected for any type of primary function.
    • Their support is top notch, they respond quickly, and the team that works with you is communicative and knowledgable.

    Cons
    Discontinued Products
    • The only thing I can think of that they could improve is the quality of the assets they produce in the go-to-market process. This is a huge value add service, but the quality of what was produced was lower than what we would have produced internally. We spent more time going back and forth on the assets than it would have taken us to build them from scratch.

    At the time we found Cloud Elements we found no other option that had a Unified API for cloud storage providers.
