Overall Satisfaction with Turbonomic (formerly VMTurbo)

We use Turbonomic for mainly DRS purposes. It is being used to manage DRS throughout the entire organizations. Turbonomic addresses the problems that are not dealt very well by VMs built in DRS.
  • We found DRS as a main strength for Turbonomic.
  • Turbonomic has a sandbox feature which can be used to simulate the impact a particular change in the environment may cause.
  • Turbonomic also does storage VMotion.
  • Turbonomic's new release manages workloads in all three scenarios where your environment is either in the cloud, on-prem or hybrid.
  • Would like to see more detailed logs.
  • GUI is not straightforward and might be hard to understand for beginners.
  • Might be a little complicated to set up the tool to function as you would need it to without professional services help.
  • Uptime
We are a small scale company and we haven't used Turbonomic to automate or deploy. I have personally tested the same and it handled all the operations well. I would ideally use it to completely automate the environment so there are less manual tasks to worry about from the systems perspective.

Turbonomic is very well suited for anyone who hosts their environment either on cloud, on-prem or is hybrid. It handles workloads very well and optimises your environment regardless to prevent any slowness. I have seen our VMs and ESXs performing better and balanced well after implementing Turbonomic.
