What do you like best about IBM Cloudant?

We worked very close to the technical team in UK. They have very good ideas and more then open to give the right feedback and help you to the next steps. We had many troubles with combining Cloudant on an Amsterdam server and Microsoft Azure somewhere in West Europe. The technical staff was reacting fast to find out that there was a router problem with at Azure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IBM Cloudant?

Our experience is that the sales team from Cloudant is the worst nightmare. They give the wrong advice and try to sell the biggest configuration possible. The only thing that counts is sales, sales and sales and do not care about startups and what the needs are from the client. Also the administration is a mess. Wrong invoices, invoices with a delay from 4 a 5 months is quite normal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Cloudant Review"
2.5/5
What do you like best about IBM Cloudant?

I used cloudant late in 2014 for our couchDB host provider. It was a great platform for getting us rolling at first, we had a hosted couch solution out of the box with no configuration and security to worry about. THey take care of everything for you and make the ramp up time is minimal. It has all of the features you'd expect from Couch, views, reducers and rest like data queries. Overall it's quick and easy.

What do you dislike about IBM Cloudant?

It's pricing. We ultimately had to dump it because we had a very write heavy application that had a lot of versioning and would write hundreds of thousands of records in a day. If you have an application that needs a store and is not write heavy this is the solution for you. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
