Case Study: RadPad achieves faster, more consistent property searches with IBM Cloudant

Boosting performance and consistency for property searches to acquire and retain loyal customers

RadPad, a company focused on making renting easier for millennials, faced challenges with its search performance as user numbers grew. Its existing hosted MongoDB database was causing timeout issues during complex property searches, which threatened user satisfaction and the company's ability to retain customers. To address this, RadPad turned to IBM for a more scalable and reliable database solution.

IBM implemented its Cloudant Dedicated Cluster, a NoSQL database-as-a-service, which provided RadPad with a low-maintenance and highly scalable platform. The migration resulted in a huge speed increase and the elimination of timeout issues, delivering a consistently fast and reliable experience for users. The IBM solution also reduced administrative burdens, allowing the RadPad team to focus on further improving the user experience as the company expanded into new markets.
