"FOSS Cloud More Than Worth Considering"

4.5/5

What do you like best about FOSS-Cloud?

Just like open source software leveled the playing field in application development, FOSS Cloud is on its way to give more freedom and better competitiveness to infrastructure solutions. We are a small company, but have had success with setting up virtual machines and moving away from VMware. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about FOSS-Cloud?

What problems is FOSS-Cloud solving and how is that benefiting you?

First and foremost... cost. Secondly, and probably more important, we can expand the scope of our projects knowing we don't have to deal with vendors to handle critical infrastructure systems. I do not like having to compromise functionality or make changes to our big goals because I'm worried about pricing models. There is freedom when we do things in-house. Thank you.
