Do any companies use IBM Cloud?

While I was looking at IBM’s quantum website (which has a surprising amount of good & free resources)… I remembered that IBM has a cloud offering, but I have never seen it mentioned in a job description. Does anyone actually use it?

I don't know of anyone personally but also they do like $20 billion / year in cloud revenue so clearly someone is.

"Cloud" can mean whatever they want it to mean. Doesn't mean public, multi-tenant IaaS, PaaS or SaaS.

Lots of companies use more than one cloud provider and if they use IBM it's mainly to migrate a legacy IBM app to Cloud OR to build a small new application that has to interact with that one Source: a few friends are former engineers and PMs there It's substantially more limited in terms of features, partners, reliability, and other areas compared to AWS and Azure. Gartner publishes an MQ that you could use to see why IBM is firmly trailing year after year.
