"OpenNebula has very good integration with SAP Storage."
"OpenNebula is easy to deploy and manage compared to other solutions like OpenStack."
"OpenNebula is lightweight, stable, and easy to customize."

"As with all enterprise software licensing, the pricing is not intuitive and must be negotiated; grandfathered contracts are better than anything offered today."
"Backup features are only available in the enterprise edition. The community version lacks a good solution for making backups."
"There are small things that are hard. For example, making sure that it is going to be installable on public clouds."
"They should add more features like object storage."
"They have been saying for the past two and a half years that they would develop a feature to hot-add RAM and CPU, but it does not work."
"An area for improvement in OpenNebula is the number of features it has. The solution doesn't have that many cloud features compared to other solutions. You'd say, "Okay, simplicity over a rich feature list?" Some say, "No, I need a big machine or a cloud interface for my customers to manage resources. I don't have to go and do it for them." Some people do it that way, and it works, but I'd like to improve the limited features in OpenNebula."
"The UI, monitoring, and alerting could benefit from further improvements."
"The protocol for clusterization is rough and doesn't work well."
