What do you like best about IONOS cloud?

We can conveniently store our databases and don't have to worry about maintaining its infrastructure & patching. It provides high scalability and numerous data connectors are provided to facilitate integrations with our third-party tools. It is best suited for all applications that require quick deployments, proper load balancing, auto-scaling and high availability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IONOS cloud?

It supports all our database requirements namely MySQL, PostgreSQL & Redis. Since its infrastructure resources provisioning is done in its dedicated cloud platform, there won't be any latency issues or connection failures. All procurements and license management are handled by the IONOS cloud platform so we needn't worry about service interruptions & we only pay for the services that we use. We have only recently started utilizing its DBaaS but resource visibility & cost estimates are insightful in its console. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is IONOS cloud solving and how is that benefiting you?

We can automate scheduled backup using Terraform scripts in the IONOS cloud platform. Through its DBaaS APIs, we connect it with our Database monitoring tools to obtain reports of our dB performance metrics & for resource discovery. We can also define a custom maintenance window for our migration activities so that we carry out limited to no disruptions during our planned failover activity. It also provides Write-Ahead-Logs (WAL) features to our PostgreSQL system so that they carry our continuous logs archiving which can also be appended to our regular logs.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about IONOS cloud?

The GUI to provision servers and the time taken to do so. The servers can easily be associated to a network and exposed to the www. The firewall is easily configured aswell. The level of support is really good. I had many Google meetings with 2 or 3 IONOS staff who were always very helpful and knowledgeable (Lawrence Jackson, Zihni Saglam, Russel Barley). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IONOS cloud?

The backup console took a bit of getting used to and a few issues were encountered along the way. Downloading the ISO, uploading the ISO, then registering console etc seemed to be a bit long winded. The issue I had after a vm clone was the backup agent installed on the backup box overwrote the backup device on the live box. The support was good to get me through this. However i think better documentation could be given/written. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is IONOS cloud solving and how is that benefiting you?

All problems now solved. We created a new backup db server (OL7.8 inc SQL Server) from a full backup of the live server. This had a Acronis backup attached to it and we tested incremental backups and sql server backups on this server. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about IONOS cloud?

IONOS Enterprise Platform is what I can say a real cloud!

You can scale up your CPU, RAM & Storage real time and use as you go.

It provides Real Time Scalability & Data Center Desiner gives server admins a visual representation of the servers he manages like what you would see on a real data center environment. Their Account Management Team is also top tier and would go out of thier way to provide good support and traning to my organisation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IONOS cloud?

Nothing much to say about dislikes, but maybe they can improve more on thier storage pricing maybe much less that amazon aws. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering IONOS cloud:

IONOS Enterprise Platform is a great solution for a growing company and those already at an enterprise level. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is IONOS cloud solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have a problems before with baremetal cloud servers and its scaling option. Before for you to scale up a cloud server is you have to coordinate with your current provider and request for an upgrade. Which doesn't make sense as this would mean that what you have is a co-location servers rather that true cloud servers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about IONOS cloud?

ProfitBricks has a nice interface that is easy to use and provision live servers with a visio-style drag-and-drop association. You can build LANs, VMs, disks, etc by "connecting the dots" so to speak.

Pricing is fantastic as well. With a purely utilitarian style pricing model (like AWS), but at a lower price point that most of the competitors it is a very compelling option.

Also, their Las Vegas Datacenter is located right here in town and we have physical access to the same facility that they are located in. This makes coordinating efforts and access to our data and systems much easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IONOS cloud?

Getting support generally goes through their engineering team in Germany and the time and language barriers can be difficult to deal with at times. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is IONOS cloud solving and how is that benefiting you?

ProfitBricks has allowed us to scale our clients' infrastructure dynamically without purchasing new hardware. We have built a deep partnership and they are always there to help with the business side of our operations, as well as providing assistance on the technical side.
