We performed a comparison between Apptio One and vRealize Business for Cloud based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Cloud Cost Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."With Apptio One, the advantage lies in its no-code approach, eliminating the need to write scripts for data retrieval."
"The TBM model and the out-of-the-box reporting are the most valuable features of Apptio One."
"Its most significant value lies in its ease of use which extends to both configuration and the subsequent deployment of additional components."
"It doesn't take long to develop an automation blueprint. You need about half an hour, and then you can install or deploy it on several systems. That was our first great advantage in the project because we urgently needed to deploy across many different systems."
"I like the integration with other applications or vendors."
"The most valuable feature is that it has a very easy and adaptive look and feel, compared with some other cloud solutions."
"The tool helps us to monitor the services provided to customers as a cloud provider. The product is a monitoring solution that helps customers pay for their utilization of services."
"This solution has made us aware that we are over-provisioning our virtual machines."
"The product provides excellent daily reports."
"The most valuable feature is that it allows us to compare the billing between the clouds."
"The way the dashboard works with the main orchestrator to combine different types of cloud providers is helpful."
"However, a notable challenge is the requirement to obtain consistent raw data, especially when operating in multiple regions with varying data sets. Each region may have distinct field names or data setups, necessitating the standardization of data before loading it into Apptio One. In Apptio One, there are areas for improvement, particularly in addressing potential bugs. An instance of this is observed when transitioning changes from the development region to the staging or production region. In instances with larger datasets, the calculation process may experience delays. Once the calculation concludes, the process proceeds to the subsequent region, whether it be staging or production."
"The solution's reporting layer, advanced conditional formatting, and reporting features could be improved."
"Encouraging or providing more out-of-the-box solutions that cater to a wider audience could enhance the overall effectiveness of the application."
"The product needs some investment in configuration. I would like to see better and more optimized configuration in the tool's future releases."
"I would like to have an easy way of modifying the reference data that is used for the purposes of estimating the total billing."
"There are some kinks to resolve with the Web GUI user interface, as it freezes at times."
"It would be a good idea for VMware to be compatible with the most popular orchestration tools in the market."
"If you haven't established a vSphere cluster and you only have a single server to integrate, you can't deploy any service."
"I would like it if they could provide their customers with more qualified support."
"It's not always easy to find the information you need. You must have a lot of technical experience to find the right location for what you're implementing within the program."
"The knowledge base is not available for the engineers, which is something that needs to be improved."
