It is a shared environment from which multiple team can work on multiple versions for development or testing purpose. User jut have to share a link and other can start working on it. This is very useful when multiple team are working on different user simultaneously. It has a very simple interface

Alternatives Considered

With VMware cloud, each VMware Cloud customer must have an SDDC account(VMC) as well as a general AWS account. The two accounts must be linked for the service to work which is a tiresome thing to do for some clients but with IBM Cloud Private all these issues are solved.
