    The best solution for the data processing and other Cloud operations acceleration software which allows data import from other various tools and the production of different operations reports using this Micros Focus platform is amazing. Data analytics which the solution offers are the best and quickly generated and the best cost management product.

    If you have a lot of customers that all need to have a separate place to work in, without the possibility of getting in each other way, and you want to safe yourself a lot of work. Than I strongly recommend you Cloud director. Ofcourse, only if you have a VMware environment as your working environment. If you just have a small group of customers and you can easily handle the work that's coming from it, then it is overkill to add cloud director to your environment. In a later station, you can always introduce cloud director (so tis never to late if you still want to use it)

    • The add-on/extension required on the internet browser sometimes are difficult to get working at first. We've experience instances where the add-on/extension latest versions will not work and have to downgrade to an older version.
    • The server console lacks features and tools. For example it would be useful to have a copy and paste tool or a file upload tool.
    • The vCloud Director management site uses Adobe Flash, which makes it impossible to use on a mobile device.

    vCloud Director is definitely my favorite as far as cloud managers. The only thing that compares is Cisco UCS Director, but it has slightly different functionality and purpose. I understand why a lot of clients still go with vCloud Director even though VMware intends to sunset it
