Min HtetOo - PeerSpot reviewer
Chief Marketing Officer at Soft Intelligence
The solution is useful for application development, but the user interface and user experience must be improved
The product must be made easier to use. The design is a bit tricky. When we log in to the Alibaba Cloud Marketplace and browse products, they look very small. The user experience must be improved. Alibaba Cloud must increase its partner network and brand awareness in our country. It will give our customers more opportunities to scale and save in the long run.
Famir Shah - PeerSpot reviewer
Chief Operating Officer at Merchuian Solutions
Performance and availability of services need improvement
NTT Cloud needs to analyze feature offerings from AWS and Azure. Additionally, they should do marketing and be more vocal about the services. They should further ensure the availability of the services as well. I rate NTT Cloud a three out of ten. In comparison, AWS and Azure are easier to fit into the environment in terms of reliability.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"We use the solution to run VMs."
"Feature-wise, it provides many features, and ECS, VM, SP, bucket object storage, and databases are the most valuable."
"We use the solution's AI features for data analysis."
"When comparing solutions such as GCP, which is the same as Alibaba Cloud, and others such as Amazon AWS and Azure, Alibaba Cloud is the preferred solution in China."
"We cut our costs significantly by migrating our infrastructure to the cloud, and Alibaba Cloud employs a pay-as-you-go model, so that minimizes many costs for us."
"It is easy to set up."
"Alibaba Cloud has lower costs and good support."
"Alibaba Cloud allows for easy setup of mirror sites and backup servers, ensuring data redundancy and high availability."
"The initial setup process is more accessible than one of its competitors."
"The pricing and services that surround the solution are great, and if we need to find a partner in a country where they do not have a cloud, they will help us find that partner, which is a level of service that solutions such as Amazon and Oracle do not offer."
 

Cons

"The flexibility of the solution could be improved."
"If you want more accuracy, stability, and 24/7 customer support, primarily relying on the SDKs and APIs, you should think twice."
"A big area for improvement in Alibaba Cloud is its support. Another area for improvement in Alibaba Cloud is SDK-based service because sometimes, the SDKs don't work correctly. Support for API-based services also needs improvement in Alibaba Cloud because, at the moment, it's not that stable."
"The solution should have more integration."
"Users use websites as a tutorial. However, the Alibaba Cloud website has the content, and the scripts are copied from Amazon Web Services. We had received customer feedback where the customer asked us to get formulate original content instead of copying from Amazon Web Services. It’s very odd and awkward."
"It is not robust."
"I think that sometimes the customer service for Alibaba Cloud is inefficient.... Sometimes it's hard to reach out to them."
"The solution needs to improve its graphical user interface."
"NTT Cloud’s performance could be better."
"The solution needs to provide a bigger portfolio of services. The solution could use more advanced monitoring."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I noticed on the pricing that it's quite expensive. It is the price you pay for making a practical choice for enterprise-level companies since it has so many features and it fits an enterprise-level company just like our company right now."
"The product is not that expensive."
"We cut our costs significantly by migrating our infrastructure to the cloud. Alibaba Cloud employs a pay-as-you-go model, so that minimizes many costs for us."
"Alibaba Cloud is cheaper."
"I don't know the exact cost. It is cheaper than AWS."
"The solution's pricing is the same as AWS'."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a three out of ten."
"The cost of Alibaba Cloud is lower than that of AWS, but I feel that its price is on the higher end of the spectrum. Alibaba Cloud charges its users a price in dollars"
"I rate the product’s pricing a four out of ten."
