Overall Satisfaction with IBM Cloud Object Storage

I use IBM storage myself, not in my organization. I use it to store data files and python notebooks.

Pros

  • Fast.
  • Free account option for individual users.

Cons

  • More detailed support documents.
  • More instructions on the interface.
  • Free individual user account.
  • Easy to monitor the usage.
I chose IBM Cloud Object Storage for my personal account because it's free and also doesn't need credit card to register. I also found that IBM Cloud Object Storage is easy to understand. I signed up for IBM data science courses on Coursera which has a lot of helpful resource to help me get started on IBM Cloud Object Storage.
It’s well suited if the organization is using IBM products in general.
It's less appropriate when the organization is mainly using Google, AWS, or Azure. I found the service provided by these services are more or less similar so it’s really a matter of choosing ecosystem. It seems to me that IBM products are not as widely used as these platforms.
