The quote attributed to "Major Cloud Provider" is unverified and appears to be placeholder text. Using fabricated testimonials can damage credibility. Either use a real, attributed quote or remove this testimonial entirely.

Listing specific company names like Apple, Disney, and Huawei without verification or sources is potentially problematic. Unless these companies have publicly confirmed they use CloudStack, this could be considered false advertising and could expose the project to legal issues. Either provide verified sources for these claims or remove the specific company names and rely on the existing "over 150 known organizations" statement with links to the official users page.

The port mapping appears incorrect. The command maps host port 8080 to container port 5050 (-p 8080:5050), but typically CloudStack's management server runs on port 8080 inside the container. This could lead to connection issues. Verify the correct port mapping for the apache/cloudstack-simulator image, or update the documentation to reflect the actual ports used.

[nitpick] The marketing language "with unparalleled ease" is subjective and potentially exaggerated. Consider using more objective language such as "Apache CloudStack enables organizations to build and manage highly available, scalable, and secure private, public, and hybrid clouds" without the superlative claim.

[nitpick] The phrase "Trusted by Global Leaders" is marketing language that makes unsubstantiated claims. This heading should be more factual, such as "User Base" or simply removed in favor of the existing bullet points that follow.
