CloudShare Reviews & Product Details

The primary advantage is its instant accessibility through a web browser, removing the need for installation and making it very convenient to start using. This is further enhanced by the rapid deployment of environments and the platform's overall user-friendliness, which together ensure both efficiency and scalability.

One aspect I find lacking is the flexibility of brand customization on the end user portal. The available configuration options are rather rigid, which makes it challenging to achieve a smooth and cohesive visual match with our corporate identity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I appreciate most is the speed of deployment. We are able to clone and launch complex environments containing multiple virtual machines within minutes, even for hundreds of users. This serves as an outstanding accelerator for the sales team, as it greatly shortens the proof-of-concept cycle. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One downside is the limited ability to customize the user interface for clients. I would prefer if the branding options were more extensive, allowing for better integration with our own branding. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is amazing the absolute faithfulness to our internal complex software stacks. We are able to duplicate advanced development environments with ease to use in new engineers training or to allow us to troubleshoot a certain problem. It is also priceless to be able to take snapshots at various points of a project state. It enables experimentation, rollbacks and sharing of particular milestones by our R&D groups with full data persistence. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The network configuration options were seemingly unintuitive at first to someone who did not have a thorough understanding of networks. We had to do a little experimenting to get our own custom subnets just the right size. I also would like it to have stronger direct integration points to our internal code repositories since we are currently doing workarounds to check development branches into the labs.

Ease of use and accessibility from any browser and location. I am a professional IT instructor and course author for serveral organizations. I need to connect up my attendees to a VM that is preconfigured with software they will need for the course, that they will have access to after class, and that VM has to be "easy to use" and relatively low cost.

The only technical issue to date after several months of using Cloudshare for dozens of classes and courses is connecting to a Linux VM using RDP thru the Cloudshare portal/browser. It is a an "edge case" as it defaults to CON mode which works but does not support "copy and paste" from the desktop into the VM Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It allows me to work with all versions of the different software I use. It allows me to easily conduct demos for clients without having to install anything additional on my computer. It's easy to transfer my work files to the system and perform detailed reviews. I use it quite frequently. It's an easy-to-use and intuitive system.It's an easy-to-use and intuitive system.

Sometimes it disconnects from the server and doesn't connect easily. I have to log out and log back in for it to work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Immediate Customer Support in most cases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Very little, as I use it nearly every day and like it very much. When there is a feature that I wonder about, I can typically get an answer from Customer Service very quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that I was able to add different VMs and edit their networking very intuitively. Also, it was super easy and helpful to take snapshots of the environments.

One thing I have recently discovered is - their customer support is very good. I had raise a support request in an environment where I was facing some network issues. The support person instantly got onto my environment, made changes himself and fixed the issue for me within 5 minutes of raising the request. It was really cool.

There is the unavailability of some OSs on CloudShare like AIX and SunOS. Also, importing VMs from OVFs sometimes causes issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I am very fond of how speedy we are to create complex virtual environments. The process of setting up training labs used to take ages before it can be accomplished in a few minutes. It is also a massive benefit that a demo environment can be snapshot and reset per prospect. It implies that each sales call will be made as though it were the first call.

It may at times seem to be a bit expensive when having to scale up to major events. Also I would like the analytics dashboard to have option to track the progress of individual users. Navigation is a bit less intuitive than it should be at times according to the new users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

the way to manage the student environment. It is quite easy and useful the possibility to share the lab of one of them Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

sometimes happened some routing issue students web traffic Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I actually love that CloudShare allows us to have isolated environments for demos without changing anything in our back end. We mostly use it to train clients on our product and the environments are similar to real deployments. Plus, it also teams up just fine with our CRM flows, so we link sessions with Salesforce contacts to make tracking a breeze. This makes the new users onboarding much more engaging and less painful.

They are not very easy to manage several live sessions at the same time with CloudShare. The interface is not really live most of the time, however, and that makes it more and more difficult to smoothly switch between environments or figure things out fast. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
