**What do you like best about Apache jclouds?**

Apache jclouds is a cumbersome tool that does not use with cloud providers. Its would be better if it provided with thr option to select providers based on their features and services.

**What do you dislike about Apache jclouds?**

The downside is that not all cloud providers are fully supported by jclouds, which is a bit difficult. I have encountered many issues with jclouds far. It is unable to provide customizable features. The documentation is somewhat limited.

**What problems is Apache jclouds solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Apache jclouds provides versatility, in managing clouds it lacks integration, with external cloud services. Requires mocking techniques. Additionally there are implementation problems that cause difficulties. The functionality of the platform needs to be improved to increase the user experience.
