Overall Satisfaction with Turbonomic (formerly VMTurbo)

VMTurbo is being used in replacement of VMWare's Enterprise Plus functionality. For us it address the fact that we are on a standard licensing structure for our ESX hosts and this type of functionality would not be made available to us. We use it to make sure that our servers are being used to the fullest and most cost effective manner possible.
  • VMTurbos DRS and load balancing functions work exactly as you would expect.
  • Planning for machine or hardware implementation is a fantastic tool.
  • Learning how they rate UI could be a little less confusing.
  • They have helped me prove a point that not more hardware is needed but a better management of the current infrastructure was needed.
It is well suite where you are trying to get enterprise plus functionality but do not have the licensing.
