Enterprise Governance for Complex Hybrid Cloud Env
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates OpenText Cloud Management from other similar products?
The primary differentiator is the design-once, run-anywhere approach. Unlike some competitors that require different templates for AWS, Azure, and on-premises, OpenText uses 'agnostic blueprints.' These blueprints allow you to orchestrate the entire lifecycle—from initial provisioning to scaling and retirement—across heterogeneous environments using a single visual designer.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
My favorite aspect is the Governance and Cost Control module. It offers a granular 'showback' and 'chargeback' feature that actually maps cloud spending to specific business units or projects. The ability to set automated guardrails such as automatically shutting down non-production environments after business hours has significantly reduced our monthly cloud wastage without requiring manual intervention from the IT team.
What do you dislike most about this product?
The initial setup and learning curve are the biggest hurdles. While the codeless configuration is powerful, the platform itself is quite heavy and requires a sophisticated understanding of infrastructure architecture to implement correctly. For smaller teams or those looking for a simple SaaS tool, this might feel overly complex. Additionally, the user interface, while functional, can feel a bit dated compared to some of the newer, more modern cloud-native startups
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
First, ensure your organization has a clear hybrid cloud strategy; this tool provides the most value when you are managing both on-premises legacy systems and multiple public clouds. Second, invest in training or professional services for the initial blueprinting phase. If you set up your blueprints correctly at the start, the automation will save you thousands of hours, but a rushed implementation can lead to technical debt. Lastly, leverage the integration capabilities early—plug in your existing Terraform or Ansible playbooks rather than trying to rebuild everything from scratch within the tool
