Really helpful for small medium buisness that do not have a lot of workforce in their IT department and want a tool that can use AI automated resource allocation that reduces manpower and time required. Yes, pricing is a bit of a concern but if you ignore price, it's one of the best out there.

Just implementing the scheduling feature of Park My Cloud has saved us numerous thousands of dollars of wasted Azure environments running with no one accessing them. For us as a company this feature alone is worth the cost and overall value. You won't be upset that you made this purchase and utilize the different options.

Since we started using IBM Turbonomic our productivity increased and it is now much more easier to manage our virtual machines and kubernetes. Also as it monitors our system in real time and alerts immediately, we can always fix the issue as soon as it arises.

Measure the usage of resources across different platforms, from Kubernetes to VMs on-premises or in the cloud, to obtain current capacity metrics and plan for future scenarios. Reduce IT infrastructure costs by taking automated actions based on resource underutilization, such as shutting down VMs or changing resource definitions.

Given the various ongoing experiments in AI space, this tool helps us run and support them while keeping tabs on cost of resources in near real time.

We can run simulations to get an idea of expected compute requirements which helps in planning and budgeting for POC's and experiments. It helps us to monitor and fix any potential resource related issues.
