The deployment part of OpenStack is why some companies have ceased having multiple solution offerings for their customers. Instead they now offer a single uniform OpenStack distribution that they know can be supported more so than 2+ other distribution and deployment variants of it. There are a lot of on-premise workloads which cannot be moved to someone else's remote cloud (for varying reasons). This is where OpenStack fills in the gap and provides something better than an ad-hoc brew-it-yourself cloud platform. That being said it still requires a good understanding of the requirements as well as a well chosen distribution to match the foreseen use-cases.
