IBM Cloud Object Storage
File recovering and easy data management from various cloud storage systems and the cost-effective capability on this IBM platform are excellent. Security on the system for the multiple data that are handled through the platform is excellent and the user can easily access any needed data from the cloud and provide useful data reports as well as excellent real-time data analytics.

Pros
IBM Cloud Object Storage
- Cloud storage allows you to save data and files in an off-site location that you access either through the public internet or a dedicated private network connection.
- Cloud storage delivers a cost-effective, scalable alternative to storing files on on-premise hard drives or storage networks.
- Cloud storage services provide elasticity, which means you can scale capacity as your data volumes increase or dial down capacity if necessary.
- Business continuity of Storing data offsite supports business continuity in the event that a natural disaster or terrorist attack cuts access to your premises.

Cons
IBM Cloud Object Storage
- Unexpected errors are known to occur when downloading/uploading files.
- Not easy to get started. In order to take full advantage of the platform and its features, additional training and reading documentation is needed.
- The UI of the platform can get a bit confusing and it's easy to get lost.

vBoxxCloud
- To use vBoxx you have an interface as administrator. To add a user, you have to use another interface.
- When you are accessing your files via the web (not via the sync folder on your laptop, pc or tablet), you have to download and upload the file, you can't change it without downloading it. Unless I don't know [how to do] it.

I have been working in IT sector for more than 15 years. I have worked with various vendors. IBM's sales team, support team have been really helpful. After we start to use their product, their UX design team also contacted us to get feedback from us. They are really interested about our experience.

I just researching and applying the tools on their platforms to ensure a good learning path, based on my needs. Reading the documentation related with resources, tools. Is too big, but I am trying to know more about it every day. It is a good way to know more about their resources. A new way to attract new customers. At the end of the day, we are all involved in improvement and automation of our tasks and resources for customers and end-users.

IBM's professional service for migrating data and implementing new cloud environment was perfect. They started to help us before we begin to bring together all data such as how can it could be best to transfer all data without problems. During the migration they watched all the process closely to prevent any failure. Lastly, after the migration, they gave us trainings on implementation.

Not used but evaluated:Dropbox (not secure enough + American servers)Google (not secure enough + American servers)OneDrive (not secure enough + American servers)Tresorit (is secure and has European servers) VBoxx won because of the availability by mail, chat and phone. That is the only thing that counts during emergencies.

Return on Investment
IBM Cloud Object Storage
- This allows us to recommend a platform to our clients that will quickly help them create new, efficient business processes with very little development.
- This saves clients hours and days of manual analysis of images, allowing the system to do the work when attaching Object Storage to models.
- There is a learning curve in utilizing the storage and the modeling, but once up and running, it works well during deployment.
