    Cons
    IBM
    • The documentation must be clearer and updated, thinking about each distribution that they offer in the cloud
    • Downtime when IOPS are raised can be less
    • The configuration can be more automated from the same control panel and not have to take it so much to the CLI

    • To use vBoxx you have an interface as administrator. To add a user, you have to use another interface.
    • When you are accessing your files via the web (not via the sync folder on your laptop, pc or tablet), you have to download and upload the file, you can't change it without downloading it. Unless I don't know [how to do] it.

    Unlike the above platforms, IBM Cloud Block Storage enable secure and quick big data migration through its secure environment and the flexibility of its Cloud options is effective. Data analytics through IBM Cloud Block Storage are easily prepared and the data access is very easy and the ability to monitor various Cloud operations is excellent.

    Not used but evaluated: Dropbox (not secure enough + American servers) Google (not secure enough + American servers) OneDrive (not secure enough + American servers) Tresorit (is secure and has European servers) VBoxx won because of the availability by mail, chat and phone. That is the only thing that counts during emergencies.
