User Testimonials
	IBM Cloud Block Storage	TeamDrive
Likelihood to Recommend	The service in general is great because on the backend. IBM offers experience and knowledge in the use of data center technologies undeniably. I recommend it for almost any situation but particularly for databases and especially large ones. That possibility of adjusting IOPS dynamically to levels that other data centers do not offer makes it unique. I don't recommend using the service if you don't have an infrastructure expert who knows about servers, Linux, and storage because a lot of the configuration and settings require an expert hand. Incentivized Alfonso de la Guarda Reyes CTO (Chief Technical Officer) Read full review	Nothing gets lost on TeamDrive since SYNQION offers both offline and online file sync. Data protection seal allows us to control who can access data on it. Incentivized Heather Mckenzie Information Technology Administrator Read full review
Pros	Proficient scaling and system customization, which allows editing. Wide range of system storage, ranging from 25GB to 12000GB. Finally, IBM Cloud Block Storage deploys the most technical and efficient security measures. Incentivized Rita Joy Information Specialist Read full review	Collaboration of teams on documents and files. Offers cloud and on-premise platforms on our company server. Enhances file synchronization even when offline. Allocates encrypted back-up copy in case of data loss. Offers 30 days free trial. Incentivized Heather Mckenzie Information Technology Administrator Read full review
Cons	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 Incentivized Alfonso de la Guarda Reyes CTO (Chief Technical Officer) Read full review	Were it not for the fact that everyone hasn't yet implemented TeamDrive in our organization - I totally have nothing in mind that need to be advanced.
