Lastly, data driven decisions can be taken at ease as it provides advanced analytics and reporting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Cost is on the higher side given the plethora of services offered. Therefore smaller organisations can feel the pinch. There can be integration challenges with existing systems and workflows that can potentially cause disruption during the transition period. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about CloudBlue?

CloudBlue are at the cutting edge of the latest technologies and are constantly innovating, bringing out new versions and components that drastically modernize and improve business insights & efficiency. Key individuals at CloudBlue make it clear that they care about you as a client and contribute significantly to both businesses' success. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CloudBlue?

Support. The one main area that has always been a struggle over the many years of our relationship is the support when things go wrong which ultimatley is inevitable. Without specific key individuals involved, the response & resolution times are far behind any modern businesses' SLA's and as such it makes it tricky to support your own Partners & Customers in a timely manner.

The only other minor gripe would be documentation, but this has gotten better year-by-year. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is CloudBlue solving and how is that benefiting you?

By the time this review is published, it's likely even more problems will have been solved by leveraging the CloudBlue Commerce platform.

In our business it is known as 'CORE' for a reason; I would estimate that CloudBlue Commerce has saved years (maybe even decades) of manual effort from it's automation capabailities which are only continuing to grow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about CloudBlue?

CloudBlue has the largest ecosystem of integrated ISVs (currently 250+). These standard integrations allow you to launch new solutions quickly without having to develop anything. Non-standard or own developed services can be easily integrated with the use of CloudBlue Connect. Besides the rich ISV ecosystem and the ability to add non-standard or your own services, the Platform is scalable and it's multi-tier functionality is unparalleled.

What do you like best about CloudBlue?

CBC's multi-tiered marketplaces suitable for resellers and their customers to use.

Allowing successful purchasing and provisioning of Microsoft Cloud Services and more Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CloudBlue?

It can be complex to configure and maintain, particularly multiple marketplaces with differing currencies. Vendor (supplier) business logic particularly for reseller authorisation (by the vendor) can also complicate onboarding. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is CloudBlue solving and how is that benefiting you?

Scaling our Cloud Distribution business without CloudBlue is almost unthinkable. The rate of change demanded by our suppliers (Microsoft, Acronis etc) and at the same time successfully serve our resellers, and their customers would have been impossible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about CloudBlue?

Cloudblue Commerce's underlying framework is easy to expand on. Newer modules are easy to deploy on the microservice architecture. The product has well-documented APIs, making it easy to integrate with 3rd party systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CloudBlue?

Major selling point is to enable partners to configure an AaaS (Anything as a service) Marketplace over Cloudblue Connect. Integration between the two platforms, while impressive, needs to reduce the time to market for providers that rely heavily on automation. In order to make use of all the APIs and automation features of this brilliant platform, one should get familiar knowledge of the underlying APIs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Enabling our partners to go live with existing portfolios, integrating with their existing financial and operational systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
