Super secure cloud services
IBM Cloud Internet Services is so far the best problem solver when it comes to providing security for any applications if someone is planning to combine their apps with other IBM app platforms. It is used by my department. Its UI is very interactive and easy to use, plus its security is reliable. I liked its smooth access without interruptions and good data retrieval speed.
- Firewall protection
- App accessibility
- No interruptions in access with well spread data centers
- Add more features to UI
- Easy installation
- Better price plans
- Security
- Accessibility
- Non-interruptive
- UI could have been better
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.

The best solution for security, reliability and performance on IBM Cloud applications.
IBM Cloud is being used by our organization to deploy and manage applications which mainly utilize IBM Watson services such as the Natural Language Classifier and Watson Assistant. We also use IBM Cloud to deploy applications that make use of CouchDB databases through IBM Cloudant. Through IBM Cloud Internet Services, we have been able to ensure that these applications are properly protected from external attacks.
- Integration with IBM Cloud applications
- Easy to manage web application firewall
- Ease of protecting CloudFoundry applications
- Good console UI
- Protection for rare managed service offerings such as CouchDB through IBM Cloudant
- Pricey
- Weak Identity and Access Management
- Reduced security configuration time for Internet of Things applications by more than 50%
- Provided better security incident SLA for CouchDB databases via IBM Cloudant
- Reduced security verification time for CloudFoundry applications by ~15%
IBM Cloud Internet Services is the best service to use to ensure security, performance and reliability of applications deployed to IBM Cloud, as it is a service that provides in-built solutions for IBM Cloud Foundry applications. It also provides a great deal of pre-configured solutions for integration with various IBM Cloud offerings such as IBM Cloudant and IBM Internet of Things Platform.

Reliable Service
IBM Cloud Internet Services is being used for hosting DNS and to secure internet-facing applications from data theft.
- Improving performance with a few changes is easy.
- Didn't fail protection.
- Faster speed.
- Higher security.
Another option we looked into was Cloudflare, but we ended up with IBM Cloud Internet services mostly because of the intuitive interface and reliable customer support center.

The Cloud Services are ready and secure !!
[Note: reviewer is using a trial version] In the company where I work, we have applications in several public and private clouds from different providers, for purposes of centralizing the administration of the same applications. We are evaluating IBM Cloud Services, so that this is not a headache and there is a single manager for all these clouds solutions. At the moment we are conducting a proof of concept with the services provided by IBM and we hope it will help us quickly in the management of them, so far the management is simple.
- Protection against online threats.
- Domain management through IBM's intuitive interface.
- Prevents interruptions caused by harmful traffic, while allowing good traffic, keeping websites, applications and APIs highly available and high performance.
- Installation guides that are more friendly and simple
- Clearer messages for the installation processes
- The implementation of IBM Cloud Internet Services has favored the company's ROI. The use of cloud services has several benefits for the company such as the scalability and sharing of resources which incurs economic savings for the company and therefore favors the ROI of it.
- Another benefit to be highlighted is the business cloud that facilitates the management of the services contracted to the different providers of public and private clouds, under a single solution and therefore helps to save costs and obtain an expected ROI in the company.
