OpenNebula Reviews Summary
Author infoRatingReview Summary
Products Manager at a tech services company with 501-1,000 employees4.5OpenNebula is central to our cloud services, efficiently managing both shared and dedicated virtual resources. Its cluster management and VXLAN support are highly valued, yet improvements are needed in API performance. We achieve significant cost savings compared to VMware.
CTO at Encha3.5I use OpenNebula for NodeWeaver's GUI due to its scalability. However, its template system needs improvement, and the lack of payment gateways made me reconsider. I switched from OpenStack, which had issues with plugin compatibility and version control.
Manager, DevOps System Engineering team at MX4.0We run our SaaS platform on OpenNebula VMs in colocation data centers, leveraging its API, SDK, and custom modules for automation. While useful, upgrades are complex, support is mediocre, and pricing isn't intuitive, affecting our overall experience.

CTO at BE.iT SA4.0We transitioned from VMware to OpenNebula for cloud management due to its flexibility and ease of integration with our IT systems. While it's effective in managing virtual machines, the web interface and hardware integration need improvement. Overall, OpenNebula is a mature product.

Senior System Integration Engineer at a tech consulting company with 5,001-10,000 employees3.5We used OpenNebula to host an application accessible to employees and partners, valuing its template creation for easy deployment and cost-effectiveness. Improvements are needed in their marketplace, customer support, and clearer storage management, especially compared to VMware.
