Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "We felt the pricing was very fair for the product. It is in no way prohibitive for larger deployments, unlike other similar product on the market."
  • "Contact the Turbonomic sales team, explain your needs and what you're looking to monitor. They will get a pre-sales SE on the phone and together work up a very accurate quote."
  • "What I can advise is to trial the product, taking advantage of the Turbonomic pre-sales implemention support and kickstart training."
  • "Licensing is per socket, so load up on the cores rather than a lot of lower core CPUs."
  • "You should understand the cost of your physical servers and how much time and money you are spending year over year on expanding your virtual farm."
  • "Price is a big one. VMTurbo was very competitively priced."
  • "If you're a super-small business, it may be a little bit pricey for you... But in large, enterprise companies where money is, maybe, less of an issue, Turbonomic is not that expensive. I can't imagine why any big company would not buy it, for what it does."
  • "It was an annual buy-in. You basically purchase it based on your host type stuff. The buy-in was about 20K, and the annual maintenance is about $3,000 a year."

  • "The solution is free."
  • "On a scale of one to ten, where one is a low price and ten is a high price, I rate the pricing an eight."
  • "The product's affordability depends on the value it brings to specific organizations."
  • "It is expensive but it is an investment in my opinion."
  • "AWS Control Tower is not really that expensive."
  • "The pricing is efficient, not overly expensive but also not very cheap."
  • "The cost is reasonable, but there are opportunities for improvement in terms of pricing for larger enterprises."
  • "It operates on a pay-as-you-go model, meaning we are charged only for the services we actively use within it."
