IBM
RedHat OpenShift is not only suited for IBM Cloud but can run in ANY cloud. We installed in Azure Cloud, for example. It can also run on Linux servers or a Power 9 machine. It is built for multi-cloud or on-prem environments. IBM support provides such excellent guidance in the installation and configuration that no other product on the market can beat it.

Zendesk
For growing technology-based companies, Zendesk Sunshine is the best ally to provide email and chat support. It supports various integrations and can provide exceptional service that is fully customizable for both the customer and the agents using Zendesk. It is not appropriate for small companies, and for companies with a very small customer base, it is a considerable expense after a customer base of at least 10,000 customers.

Cons
IBM
  • I wish it had better compatibility with docker file syntax. We had issues when it couldn't build standard docker files
  • Wish it had better documentation
  • Wish they offered fully supported client libraries for the Openshift API rather than dumping it on a 3rd party

  • There are some glitches when doing upgrades on information or data, sometimes
  • It is difficult to find tickets once they are solved, we could have a tracking of the most recent or solved tickets during the day.
  • The integration or merge with other tickets from the same client is not intuitive at all, there should be an alert that throws a match.
