Stack Console
White-label self-service, billing and reseller portal that sits over CloudStack, OpenStack, Proxmox, VMware, OpenNebula or Virtuozzo: the commerce layer, not the infrastructure.
Stack Console (India) is the broadest "portal over your orchestrator" product in this comparison: it supports Apache CloudStack, OpenStack, VMware vSphere, Proxmox VE, OpenNebula, Virtuozzo, OpenShift, Ceph, Veeam and Google Cloud, with AWS/Azure announced. Its strength is the full commerce stack: usage metering, prepaid/postpaid/subscription models, rate cards, egress billing, multi-tier resellers with markups, invoicing, and payment gateways (Stripe, PayPal, Authorize.net, M-Pesa and others), plus branded web and mobile apps and a natural-language "StackAI" assistant. Licensing is on RAM allocated to tenants rather than node count, and deployment is done by the vendor only. Pricing is not published and public technical documentation is thin.
Pros
- +Widest orchestrator coverage of any portal here: one tenant experience across mixed estates
- +Complete billing-to-payments-to-reseller stack, including regional payment gateways
- +Fast-moving integrations (Proxmox, OpenShift, Veeam, GCP added 2025–26)
Cons
- −Opaque pricing and vendor-only installation
- −Thin public documentation; Terraform/Ansible support not documented
- −"Migration Engine" advertised but scope unclear
