We performed a comparison between Cloudability 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."Each user can have their own dashboard that they want to consume. Instead of having to share one dashboard for multiple users, you can create individual views for each user to view, and that view will contain only their own accounts, which allows for separation of data."
"We use the product to get a detailed level of transparency on the cloud strengths."
"It has already given us insight into how to optimize. So, we are now ramping up steadily its usage."
"The most crucial feature in reducing my cloud costs has been the rightsizing recommendations, along with the dashboards that track reserved instance spending coverage and utilization. As for Cloudability's integration with our existing cloud infrastructure, it's not integrated directly into our AWS infrastructure but rather reads and pulls data from it, providing valuable insights and analysis for cost management."
"The pricing isn't too expensive."
"The tool helps us to resize on AWS correctly."
"The sizing recommendation will look, and say, "You are only using this at 80%," then recommend a better fit for you."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its ability to create reports and dashboards."
"The flexibility is the product's most valuable feature."
"The most valuable feature is the metering capability."
"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."
"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 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."
"I like the integration with other applications or vendors."
"I would like the API functionality to improve. The update time after uploading data could also be improved."
"Right now, what we're doing is we are manually putting the data in it, which is something which we don't like about Cloudability."
"We have dealt with a few technical support people where we ask for one thing and they might not deliver straightaway. It seems like they are a stretched across multiple customers."
"They can improve the custom range of the network."
"There are also some limitations with the dashboards and data representation in Cloudability."
"Cloudability needs to improve on data collection from cloud sources."
"We would like them to have a linear regression, so we can be predictive for budgets, allocations, and the year's follow ups. We also want to have a longer window of analytics with better certainty that our workload will fit the model, not just in a two week window."
"The dashboard needs to include more graphs per team to show what individual teams are spending in a given time period."
"I would like it if they could provide their customers with more qualified support."
"The pricing model is complicated and would be more predictable if it were simplified."
"The knowledge base is not available for the engineers, which is something that needs to be improved."
"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 to have an easy way of modifying the reference data that is used for the purposes of estimating the total billing."
"It would be a good idea for VMware to be compatible with the most popular orchestration tools in the market."
"Better integration with other VMware toolsets would be beneficial."
"The solution's private cloud is much too expensive."
