Cloudimage vs. IBM Cloud Internet Services

This software is well-suited when images are hosted on your own server, but it is less well suited when requiring the "full package" such as manipulations, hosting, uploader, etc.

In terms of business challenges, it simplifies the job of my engineers and significantly increases the productivity of my teams when they collaborate with IBM teams all over the world. Now that we have completed a proof-of-concept using the services supplied by IBM, we expect it to assist us in managing them more efficiently; thus far, management has been straightforward.

• Pricing.
• Intermittent Dashboard Issues.
• Image resize traunches. So 100px windows of resizing rather than pixel-perfect rescaling to save on cache size/delivery volume.

• Request proxying is done by way of DNS name resolution, which is inflexible.
• Proxy services do not work on wildcard DNS entries.

We have a single contact point, but CI has been immaculate with their support offering. Instantaneous and comprehensive.

We chose Cloudimage for the value for money, and the ability to link with our own hosting.

I have used Salesforce to explore it as an app but I have found them both able to solve my needs and requirements when it comes to security. While I choose IBM Cloud Internet Services for more accessibility, a better price was available with Saleforce. Although that is just my observation.

Incentivized

• Same or lower cost as before and more possibilities than before
• Using a GDPR respecting, European (French) based company
• Using more features like watermarking, fallback image, precise 404 handling

• It had a positive impact with a big improvement on the performance of web applications.
• Services are quite fast to implement and easy to maintain from an IT perspective.
