CenturyLink Cloud Application Manager vs OpsNow

Likelihood to Recommend

It was very good to use in small scale projects. Considering the high end projects with many instances and multi-platform architectures, it is better to test before the application is deployed. I think few of the questions can be general - who are the system users and what size is the application focussing on? How much resources are required? Will the application require any additional services?

We use OpsNow for Multi-Cloud Management (DXC and Azure) Clouds. This is the best scenario because in only one platform you can have all information about your resources such as your environments, Planning, designing, delivering, operating, and managing the cloud represents more than just infrastructure operations, project or service requests and error handling, to manage your Cloud IT from development to operation in its entirety.

Cons

Though it is good and easy for developers, it lacks operational activities and monitoring tools.
It is easy to deploy WAR on AppFog with its console but sometimes it can lack on the performance and feasibility.

OpsNow 9.0

Based on 1 answer

The general support is very good because is online and also its available during business hours. I think OpsNow doesn't have 10 because support 24/7 isn't available yet. I hope in the near future it will be available.

Alternatives Considered

Primarily because it used to have a good free tier earlier, which it does not anymore. It's simple, and things are available to use. Compared to it's competitors, it does has less features, but that kind of acts in its favor. That adds to the simplicity, and ease of use for a new user.
