Likelihood to Recommend	bloXroute Labs No answers on this topic	IBM IBM Blockchain Platform is well suited for scenarios where you need secure transactions, like in logistics, finance, legal agreements. Especially I think is well-suited for smart contracts between devices under the IBM IoT platform, and using Watson AI for predicting future scenarios. In this case, an end-to-end powerful platform can be created from sensor data to business insight. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review

Cons	bloXroute Labs No answers on this topic	IBM Sometimes when I try to instantiate a chain code, it won't let me and the error messages aren't clear so I can't work on a solution When a peer is not working, it's hard to know why just from the console Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Support Rating	bloXroute Labs No answers on this topic	IBM In many cases I do not have to reach out to support because the knowledge base is very detailed, presenting the solutions step by step in a very detailed and intuitive way. At other times the first-level support does not have the necessary knowledge and you must wait for technical support. This is common in any provider but I would love to receive immediate, qualified support through the chat Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Alternatives Considered	bloXroute Labs No answers on this topic	IBM The IBM blockchain platform is very comprehensive for hyperledger fabric and we find it easy to ramp-up our development on the blockchain side. For application service development, we moved to AWS Lambda for its established market position in the domain. Briefly, we did look at Microsoft and Amazon's offerings in blockchain platforms, however, we felt that IBM has a much stronger ecosystem around Hyperledger Fabric and that was indeed helpful at different stages as we progressed on the development.

Return on Investment	bloXroute Labs No answers on this topic	IBM We worked with AST (American Stock Transfer) to record their votes. It was our first product to run in production, which gave us really a big ROI after we started our project. We also started working with PipelineDL and tracking their assets, which made a big impact on supply chain industries.
