Compare Cisco CloudCenter vs. CloudStack
Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros | |
"Upgrades are very simple as well because they've allowed us to get updates directly in the CloudCenter Suite manager. If you need to do an upgrade to your setup afterward, you just push a button and it rolls out the parts and retires the old ones. It's seamless and very simple compared to what we've done before." "The initial setup is fairly straightforward if you have a basic setup." | "You can use a single API to get things done, rather than multiple APIs on multiple modules." |
Cons | |
"The improvement I would like to see is not one thing particular to CloudCenter. I'd say it's more of a message that the system is still using a lot of the different products and if they would all just fit better together, they all could be faster together." "I'm not a big fan of CloudCenter. I don't have anything against it, however, the on-premise version has been so hard to upgrade and maintain." | "I would like to see support for native VLAN, and fault-tolerance." |
