What differentiates OpenMetal Cloud Infrastructure from other similar products?
It was imperative to our team that we used a hosted solution that was as close to standard OpenStack as possible so that we could have higher gauntness of compatibility of our systems. That was what OpenMetal provides. They take care of the initial deployment and of course the maintenance and upkeep of the underlying infrastructure allowing our team to focus on software and integrations.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
I'd probably say the support stands out above everything else. It was easy to set up. There were a few back and fourths about some particular environment settings we needed to get squared away but it was a breeze. Over the years OpenMetal has been cost effective and reliable. It serves its function perfectly for us and stays out of the way otherwise. What more can you ask from an infrastructure provider. On the occasions we needed support, they have been surprisingly prompt and thorough.
What do you dislike most about this product?
The nature of this being a hosted service means there are some environment settings that are not exposed to us. While this is rare, we did need to engage support to work through the issues. But , since the support is stellar its not really an issue at all.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
We've used OpenMetal for over 2 years. Its been reliable for us. Upfront pricing and well known software. The support will get you going and be there when you need them.
Pros
- Reliable
- Enables Productivity
- Trustworthy
- Efficient Service
