Cloud Management Reseller Features

The Abiquo platform has Cloud Management Reseller Features to support cloud resellers and their customers with both private and public clouds (Azure CSP and Amazon resellers in the APN).

Reseller whitelabelling

Each reseller can have their own fully branded user interface and their tenants can access the platform through custom URLs with custom login screens. Providers can create custom themes for each tenant using CSS to style the HTML 5 UI elements.

The provider can optionally create a login screen for each reseller URL, each with their own logo, watermark, and color scheme. You can customize the main menu icons, logo, and color scheme for each reseller or tenant.

You can replace the default VM template logos. And it is easy to customize the colors of some other elements (e.g. pagination controls). Finally, many other elements can be customized to order by their UI design department.

Hybrid cloud billing dashboard

When customers are working with multiple cloud providers, it is essential to keep costs under control and the Abiquo dashboards were designed to make this easier. The dashboards contain resource usage graphs and optimization tables, and the hybrid cloud billing dashboard displays recent bills from public cloud providers, and a cost estimate for the next bill, as well as an average cost per VM.

You can configure this feature with reseller credentials and the platform will retrieve the details to display for the resellers’ customers, identified by their compute credentials. The feature also supports tenants who have their own accounts with the cloud provider. The account owner should configure access to programmatic billing for their account.
