Overall Satisfaction with Turbonomic (formerly VMTurbo)
I primarily use the core functionality to maintain our performance baselines. It is also very useful for finding and troubleshooting and performance hotspots. Having this tool now enables up to give performance guarantees to all of our Tier 1 VMs that house our critical applications.
- It is very good at giving you patterns allowing you to recognize bad actors consuming large amouts of resources.
- One of the best and easiest capacity planners for your VM and host consumption.
- Automatic application recognition could definitely be improved instead of just giving generic app load numbers.
- Improved cluster efficency
- More reliable performance levels
It helps maintain a much more balanced environment.
I think it provided a compelling choice especially when you factor in cost. Plus the great capacity planning already included in VMTurbo.
