The solution is not easy to use. It's not intuitive enough to click anywhere in the solution and make it work. Likewise, Cloudbolt takes a long time to configure and set up properly. If I install an app, I should be able to quickly get it to work without taking a long time to configure and set it up.
I had an issue with the scheduling feature of CloudBolt, but I'm not sure if that's been fixed in the new version. For example: I scheduled a job for powering on and powering off the VM, but there were times it didn't work, so I had to create a new job for it. It's only the scheduling feature that needs improvement. The rest of the CloudBolt features are okay for me. An additional feature I'd like to see in the next release of CloudBolt is costing and the consumption of cloud resources, or how much has been consumed including the cost, should be included in the report to make it easy for us.

For improvements, I would say that they could maybe increase the number of integrations and add more out-of-the-box work flows and possibly a new or improved user interface. They would all be features that would improve the solution. Currently, the interface is quite good, but an improved one would be better. With regard to billing and charge back, I would really want the platform to have some of those capabilities. Integration should definitely be included as an additional feature. An advanced level or an enhanced user interface and maybe a good set of new application blueprint out-of-the-box, which any customer can download and use, would be helpful additions.
CloudBolt supports a variety of cloud technologies, from on-premises virtualization and private cloud to a wide range public and hybrid cloud configurations.
No need to rip-and-replace. CloudBolt provides easy import, syncing, and management of legacy deployments even as it helps you build out new cloud environments.
CloudBolt lets administrators create and maintain configuration standards while developing a reusable library of service and application...
The area of integrating on-prem and cloud needs improvement. Another area that the solution needs to improve on is the UI. The UI can be much better.
