It is a complex software program and setting it up on ubuntu can be a daunting task for inexperienced users. Ubuntu Openstack can be sometimes resource intensive requiring high memory, CPU and storage space. This might result in higher hardware costs and increased maintenance requirements. Since it is open source, Canonical provides only limited support for it. Mostly we need to rely on community support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
