Companies can't remove reviews or game the system. Here's why
It is being used by only one department which deals with customers who only demand us to have a hybrid cloud with their own on-premises cloud. So this way, we clearly use Ubuntu Openstack to safeguard our clients' highly important and secure data by building their own cloud on their own premises.
- A very clean and easy to read documentation.
- Quick to build and setup from the scratch.
- Easy to maintain.
- Highly secure.
- High availability can be made better.
- GUI of Horizon can be extended with almost all features like in CLI.
- Long term support (LTS) can be improved, which pulls more and more customers.

Cheap, Open Source, Cost-effective and Reliable.
Ubuntu OpenStack is used by our developers to create development and testing environments for our software. We found it very easy to use with Jenkins to create a VM and run tests on a certain piece of software under development. It makes our developers' jobs easier as it makes a large part of the testing process automated. Another big advantage of the product for us is that it's open-source unlike many of the alternatives.
- Easy to use with Jenkins for automating testing.
- Great documentation with a huge community.
- Learning how to use it doesn't take long, unlike some alternatives.
- Open source.
- Easy to maintain.
- Lack of customization options for the VMs.
- Not all CLI features are available in the GUI.
- Most of the well-made guides out there are not official - we need more simplified guides directly from Ubuntu.
Ubuntu OpenStack is used in my organization by only one department as of now. We use it for purposes of both public clouds and private clouds ie., on-prem clouds within our customers premises. Ubuntu OpenStack is great in handling and addressing business problems like securing very critical and important data of our clients, not to make it public on public cloud networks. For this very reason, we create on-prem cloud setup with Ubuntu OpenStack for such clients.
- Flexibility for deploying and managing virtual machines.
- Full fledged documentation for self learners within organization.
- Great that it's fully an open source offering. Hence light on pockets.
- More customizable options while choosing virtual machine configurations would be great.
- To have regular online learning sessions directly from Ubuntu OpenStack experts [to] help users and for those who implement it.
- Giving admin more control on what privileges they can grant to their users.

First In Class, Open Source for Data-center Management
Ubuntu OpenStack is being used by the whole organization and beyond. It is used internally by developers to create development and integration environments. Also used with Jenkins to create a VM, deploy automatically an app and launch automated tests on it then destroy the VM. It is also used for hosting services.
- Very easy to use, learning curve is very short. Don't need to invest months of training before using it
- Well suited with Jenkins for automated tests
- Works well on large sets of heterogeneous hardware
- Support for High Availability should be better
- Commercial offerings should be more precise and clear
- Provide more help and tools to migrate from VMware to OpenStack
