# Mist Reviews & Product Details

Mist is an open source multicloud management platform. Our goal is to make multicloud simple and offer a single interface from where you can manage everything. Mist supports all popular infrastructure technologies including public clouds, private clouds, hypervisors, containers and bare metal servers. It provides a unified interface for performing common management tasks like provisioning, orchestration, monitoring, automation and cost analysis. It comes with a RESTful API and CLI so you can easily integrate it into your existing workflows. Our customers include large organizations like the European Parliament, Red Hat, National Bank of Greece, SevOne, Shoprite and more. Our customers report 40%-60% reductions in server bills and management overheads, four times faster roll outs and twice as fast incident response times. Mist comes in three editions. Mist Enterprise Edition (on-prem) is ideal for large teams with advanced needs around orchestration and access controls. Mist Hosted Service (SaaS) is easy to get started with and is ideal for highly dynamic infrastructures. Mist Community Edition is our open source version, for teams with a DIY approach.

"Great tool to get control of your mixed cloud resources"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Mist?

easy to add cloud accounts and instances Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mist?

user permission management is not enough granular Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Mist:

Very helpful tool to manage every resource in your cloud, through one single panel. You will be able to see costs, hardware status, and also i.e. reboot every instance deployed and added to Mist.

If you plan to use it on premise, take care about security access and users policies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Mist solving and how is that benefiting you?

we can manage in the same place, every cloud resource we have, from Google Cloud, to AWS or OVH Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

5/5

What do you like best about Mist?

Supports more than just the mainstream cloud vendors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mist?

Inherant with any docker based application - but sometimes the app will need a restart due to some undefined issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Mist solving and how is that benefiting you?

The platform provides management and visibility of multi-cloud environments. Mistio enables full coverage of all assets regardless of cloud provider, with its support for many of the VPS providers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
