Find out what your peers are saying about IBM, Densify, Spot by NetApp and others in Cloud Analytics."We can manage multiple environments using a single pane of glass, which is something that I really like."
"The automation and orchestration components are definitely the best part, as you can tell it what it can do and when, and just let it be."
"It became obvious to us that there was a lot more being offered in the product that we could leverage to ensure our VMware environment was running efficiently."
"I have the ability to automate things similar to the Orchestrator stuff. I do have the ability to have it do some balancing, and if it sees some different performance metrics that I've set not being met, it'll actually move some of my virtual machines from, let's say, one host to another. It is sort of an automation tool that helps me. Basically, I specify the metric, and if I get a certain host or something being over-utilized, it'll automatically move the virtual machines around for me. It basically has to snap into my vCenter and then it can make adjustments and move my virtual machines around. It also has some very nice reporting tools built around virtual machines. It tells you how much storage, memory, or CPU is being used monthly, and then it gives you a very nice way to be able to send out billing structure to your end users who use servers within your environment."
"The most valuable features are the cluster utilization reports and the resource capacity planning. We can simulate how much capacity we can add to the current resources. The individual DM reports and VM-facing recommendations report are also helpful."
"Using this product helps us to reduce performance risk because it shows us where resources are needed but not yet allocated."
"The most important feature to us is an objective measurement of VM headroom per cluster. In addition, the ability to check for the right-sizing of VMs."
"It is a good holistic platform that is easy to use. It works pretty well."
"The solution's most valuable aspect is the fact that it is open source."
"The solution's most valuable aspects are its data integration and data virtualization."
"I would like Turbonomic to add more services, especially in the cloud area. I have already told them this. They can add Azure NetApp Files. They can add Azure Blob storage. They have already added Azure App service, but they can do more."
"After running this solution in production for a year, we may want a more granular approach to how we utilize the product because we are planning to use some of its metrics to feed into our financial system."
"Before IBM bought it, the support was fantastic. After IBM bought it, the support became very disappointing."
"Additional interfaces would be helpful."
"While the product is fairly intuitive and easy to use once you learn it, it can be quite daunting until you have undergone a bit of training."
"Turbonomic can modernize the look and feel, making it more user-friendly to access and obtain information."
"The old interface was not the clearest UI in some areas, and could be quite intimidating when first using the tool."
"The one point is the reporting. We do have reports out of it, but they're not the level of graphical detail I would like."
"We've had some issues with stability."
"The solution needs to improve the functionality of the auto-deduplication."
