Internal Slide
The following slides (#7 thru #30) are new CloudForms Use Case slides and are a suggested way to
introduce CloudForms to your accounts. Of course this entire deck is meant to be a library of slides
for you to customize a CloudForms presentation. We have also added slides around CloudForms
release 3.0. (Slides #31 thru #40). The older sales deck remains untouched (Slides #42 onward)

Challenges
What we hear from customers in initial cloud meetings
1. How do I provide my users with self-service yet still control
what they can see and do?
2. How do I tie self-service to what's going on in my
infrastructure?
3. How do I provide adequate support and service levels when
I give users control?
4. How do I ensure compliance in a cloud?
5. How can I integrate this cloud into my existing
infrastructure tools and processes?
