Overall Satisfaction with IBM Cloud Virtual Servers

These scalable servers we use to deploy and host our code for running our instances. The auto-scaling issue was our major focus problem and IBM cloud virtual servers handled this ease in our organization.
  • Auto scaling feature
  • Professional support
  • Competitive pricing
  • Need to have regional support.
  • Problems with restoring from old backups.
  • More customized VMs instead of pre-configured VMs.
  • Easy deployment, scalability.
  • Fast to spawn
  • Lots of flavors
Instead of having its own onsite premise servers, having this cloud as a hybrid will help reduce costs.
Faster times were achieved in spawning the servers, and we have used up to 7 servers from the reserved quota and it guaranteed our capacities with good performance.
Provisioning is faster from the auto-assigned and preconfigured VMs. But it also provides to customize our own VMs.
Not used others to provide a comparison, but will be delighted to provide once others are used.
As of now, we used only virtual servers. And the response to using it is satisfied.
IBM has a long history of providing excellent quality products and world-class support. Auto-scaling from this is commendable. Well suited for small or upcoming companies as it is budget-friendly.
