Overall Satisfaction with IBM Cloud Bare Metal Servers
We use IBM Cloud Bare Metal Servers to publish our software products and also to support our clients that don't own cloud infrastructure or don't want to have our products in their cloud, clients that just want the service running. We found that IBM Cloud is our best option to work with. We are a small software business, with fewer than 5 employees and we just reached five years of experience with IBM Cloud. We love it and want to keep going. We are fine with the Bare Metal Servers that we own. We get notifications every time we need to schedule the maintenance. Our clients are also happy the service is always up and running when needed.

Sometimes our products need to load a lot of data, sometimes daily, sometimes monthly, and with that data, we need to perform many calculations, over and over. So far we have no complaints about it. We build our Bare Metal Server with much RAM and we believe that it has the power to perform what we need.
Every time we need a new bare metal server, we schedule not only the budget to have it but the right time to start using it. And so far we haven't had the need to start using it immediately, and we believe those two to four hours will work in any emergency.
We went for IBM Cloud Bare Metal Servers, after doing some research. We found at that time it was a little complicated to start working with Microsoft Azure and also complicated with Amazon Web Services. It was like there were so many options that we didn't know what to select. We found IBM Cloud (Soft Layer, at that time) and we love it.
We feel organized.
