In October 2019, we announced new capabilities that make IBM’s public cloud the most open and secure platform for enterprises to run their core business.

By implementing and making commercially available state-of-art cryptographic key management technology and increasing bandwidth for next-gen virtual servers on the cloud, we’ve been building a public cloud that’s ready for mission critical workloads of any scale and complexity. (Read the full announcement here.)

Also in 2019, IBM Cloud was recognized as a 2019 Gartner Peer Insights Customers’ Choice for Cloud Infrastructure. And, most recently, as of February 28, 2020, IBM Cloud received the highest overall customer rating among leading cloud providers for the last 12 months. According to 84 customer reviews, IBM Cloud received the following:

  • The highest overall customer rating among leading cloud providers, rated above AWS, Google Cloud and Microsoft Azure with 4.7 out of 5 stars.
  • The highest ratings for customer willingness to recommend – 95%.
  • The highest ratings for security and compliance with 4.7 out of 5 stars.
  • The highest ratings for integration and deployment with 4.6 out of 5 stars.

For full details, check out Gartner Peer Insights.

For clients who need public cloud solutions with higher levels of support for compliance, security, and management, with proven delivery methods, the IBM public cloud stands out as ready to handle their mission critical workloads.

Trusted by 47 of the Fortune 50, 10 out of 10 of the world’s largest banks, and 8 out of the 10 largest airlines, IBM Cloud meets the demanding security, performance and scalability requirements for running the world’s largest incumbent businesses across many industries.
