    CloudBolt Software
    I think it's great for giving any/all users the ability to deploy servers for whatever they want. It's also great for scaling up/down large quantities of servers. It also has some pretty good plugins and "orchestration actions" that you can write for yourself. I don't think it would be best suited if you want to set and forget it. It needs some TLC, and the interface and initial setup [are] not the most user-friendly. So if you're planning on using it for some complex tasks, make sure you have someone dedicated to it, at least for the initial setup. And make sure you have monitoring on it.

    It is most suited where there multi cloud platform as VCloud suite provides most 2 important licences i.e. Vsphere 9India's leading hypervisor) and Vrealize Suite which helps to automate and also simplies IT management by making the solution most agile, efficient and easy to use. If there is a simple environment with just few servers where there is need for only 2-3 VMs, i will not recommend this.

    VCloud mostly provides cloud management platform, all others also provide the same plus some other features so, Vcloud can be little less expensive in comparison to other solutions available in market. Also, it's very easy to use and deploy and manage your cloud platform. It is widely used by mid scale as well as large scale companies.

    • Most of our teams have saved an invaluable amount of time by being able to automate their deployments.
    • After the initial time you spend [understanding] all the nuances, the configuring of groups, permissions, etc., does make administering it easier.

    • Positive only- Vrealize suite helps is IT automation by making it cost-effective and efficient.
    • Less time is consumed by our IT administrators because of Automating process and they can do better monitoring
    • It can be really cost effective for if any company wants to make private cloud. It did the same with us as through vCloud we get all the VMware software required.
