Cloud is just another word for outsourcing, and outsourcing is very expensive - IBM is 3x as expensive as other cloud outsourcer's, and generally has nothing to offer.

Clients who were on SoftLayer before the IBM acquisition were happy.

Face it, IBM and its processes have a way of just F'n a good thing up.

A couple years ago the message was that IBM's IaaS offerings were far superior then our competitors. Believe this was after the SoftLayer acquisition. My, how things change.

Don’t you think it’s strange that the company claims they are hot on the heels of Azure and AWS and yet Gartner doesn’t think to include?? Perhaps there were so few customers in their cloud that they wouldn’t qualify for the scorecard survey...

Never even made the radar screen, and not surprised.

IBM has been talking about Cloud for how many years now?

Yet our center does not have any accounts on the cloud. A little strange don't you think?
