Extremely versatile with their service options, can be custom tailored to your needs, large number of datacenter locations to choose from if geo location is a concern. > > **Cons**: It can be expensive but that's what it is for higher tier cloud services. Their interface is a bit complicated/convoluted at times, part of that was from legacy issues of merging older systems together with the new. > > Overall IBM cloud was easy to deal with and provided high tier service, support was excellent, better than most I have seen in the industry. If you need a versatile custom solution they have many options to chose from, even their basic offerings have a lot of potential options which I liked to see. ----- ### "Saving user experiences" — 3.0/5 > **Juan Carlos** | *18 July 2019* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Several tools to work with cognitive human traits. lots of references and api info Several lenguage compatibility several endpoints to work with Scalabe price guide so allow you to chose what you want. No hide prices. Control panels to work with > > **Cons**: Some references are too big that they stuck my web browser , example try the reference of watsing discovery and se the magic. When you deploy a java app and you want to se the logs you are only allowed to watch useing their web console wich is unefficent. references needs update , they never tell you that when thier eliminated user and password now there is an specific user and every endpoint just give you the password. the examples of conecions some time need some little fix up so they dont work as scratch. > > I was ordered to do a application with MFP watson cognitive fitures ,voice recordering and text analisys. I started with MFP wich there was almost no info except for the one on the site wich seemes outdated. After making if work i countinued with speach to text wich was easy to implement but then i started creating an orchestrator to handle all the otehr logic so i used a java app deployed on the cloud with dosent take long to configure finaly integrated other services like translate, personality insigths and Tone analyser everything work fine after some configurations. ----- ### "Lord of Cloud Computing." — 5.0/5 > **Irfan** | *12 February 2021* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Support small and Large Business Organization.
