    The principles of openstack are well understood - this is a complex product to implement - RackSpace's roll in that implementation is to remove as much of the complexity as possible to allow a smooth user experience for their customers. They need to really work on educating customers to ensure there are no gaps in understanding - this will help their support operation so its in their intereset

    Great platform for deploying SaaS infrastructure. I like how I’m not tied down by vendor lock/licensing costs. The community is also really good and responsive with being able to provide support and answers when needed.
