Improves cloud cost control and accountability but could explore further enhancements

Review provided by PeerSpot
What is our primary use case?
This product was used for financial management in my company because I was working for a FinTech. VMWare Tanzu CloudHealth 's use case is related to financial control and resource governance across multi-cloud environments, including reducing waste, optimizing spend, and driving accountability.
What is most valuable?
The most valuable features of this solution include the drive for accountability because we can allocate cloud costs back to specific business units or teams through showback and chargeback. Additionally, reduced waste is achieved because we can identify unused or underutilized resources and receive recommendations for resizing instances.
VMWare Tanzu CloudHealth 's unified dashboard helps streamline cloud management practices by unifying everything needed in one dashboard, such as metrics, instance workings, machines, and servers. All of this in just one dashboard is very helpful to improve agility and resolve issues, especially for the workloads.
VMWare Tanzu CloudHealth helps manage compliance risks by preventing threats, stopping attacks, detecting threats, and securing workloads or endpoints where customers will be using the endpoints. The positive impact on my organization is substantial because we can reduce waste, optimize expenses, drive accountability, and secure the budget from unnecessary cloud costs.
What needs improvement?
I do not see any flaws in VMWare Tanzu CloudHealth. Everything is fine for me. The performance is acceptable, and the layout is acceptable. It is very user-friendly, and there is nothing that needs to be improved from my perspective. The pricing of VMWare Tanzu CloudHealth could be better, but for the service being provided, I believe the price is fair.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been working with VMWare Tanzu CloudHealth for four years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
The stability and reliability of VMWare Tanzu CloudHealth are good because this solution makes it very easy to optimize costs. All companies want to optimize costs when using cloud solutions. It is easy to get lost on cost when using cloud services because some companies acquire things they do not need and pay for them unnecessarily. With VMWare Tanzu CloudHealth, I can help optimize services and identify the pain points where cost reduction is necessary. Regarding accountability, it is also great.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
The scalability of VMWare Tanzu CloudHealth is great because all components are very user-friendly, and the open-source code is also user-friendly. The scalability is good. The backbone of VMWare Tanzu CloudHealth is scalability; it is very easy to scale. It is very easy to adapt.
How are customer service and support?
I do not often communicate with the technical support of VMWare Tanzu CloudHealth because I have never needed to call them.
I have used the official documentation, guides, and manuals for this tool for examples involving installation and customization. Overall, the documentation is good. They have all the acronyms and glossary. It is very interactive, with examples on how you can do this or that, and there are the do's and the don'ts.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Neutral
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I did not use a different solution for the same use cases before VMWare Tanzu CloudHealth. We were using other kinds of cloud products, but they were very different from VMWare Tanzu CloudHealth.
How was the initial setup?
I did not participate in the initial setup of VMWare Tanzu CloudHealth.
What was our ROI?
I have seen a return on investment with VMWare Tanzu CloudHealth. My company was very happy using this, and they did not buy another solution, so I believe they have seen benefits using this VMWare solution.
It is difficult for me to share examples of the return on investment I have noticed because this is a management department issue. They do not share those kinds of things with the employees; otherwise, the employees will ask for more money. I do not have those records.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
When trying to choose a product for these use cases, I was only looking at VMware because I am used to using VMWare Tanzu CloudHealth, and I do not know much about other vendors. I prefer this one.
What other advice do I have?
VMWare Tanzu CloudHealth's analytics in understanding cloud usage trends and expense forecasts is normally more for marketing staff and analyzing production servers in my case, so I am not very experienced on that point.
The metrics used to measure the effectiveness of VMWare Tanzu CloudHealth's resource optimization features are programmatic because I am a developer, and we do some calculations according to the requirements. With those requirements, we can create a programmatic enablement to calculate the metrics. It is a very complex procedure to explain in a phone call.
Some companies may not be capable of affording this product. I would rate this review a 7.

What is most valuable?
The product is easy to use in terms of monitoring all the environments. It works for multiple clouds.

There could be flexibility in pricing for the product. They should provide information or tools to tune the cloud resources according to the environment size. It will help us get the right cost. Additionally, there could be integration with different cloud providers so developers can utilize diverse servers.

A good observability tool for costs in the cloud
Reviewed on Mar 16, 2023
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
VMware Aria Cost powered by CloudHealth helps us understand the cloud costs of our customers with a deep drill down to each service, linked account, etc. It also helps us visualize the data using dashboards and view some cost savings recommendations
What do you dislike about the product?
In my opinion, VMware Aria Cost powered by CloudHealth is lacking a central view of cost savings recommendations for many services. Although there are recommendations for commitments and a few others, there is no central location to view all recommendations (for example: EIPs that are not assigned to any instance) and this makes it a bit harder to understand how to save on costs
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
VMware Aria Cost powered by CloudHealth is solving the problem of having a centralized view for all of our (and our customers) cloud costs with an option to filter and visualize the data in many ways.

Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
"All of our operations have been streamlined and automated by CloudHealth. We are able to easily create custom policies given the fact that CloudHealth reduces risk and expedites our decision-making process. The detailed and accurate visibility also allows continuous cloud usage monitoring and performance analysis, leading to more precise capacity planning and better resource utilization for our organization. We can simply monitor performance with CloudHealth and compare it to our provisioned capacity, allowing us to maximize asset value."
What do you dislike about the product?
The inability to personalize the fast bar on the left-hand side to make it simpler to go to sites I usually visit would be my main complaint about the app, if I had to select just one issue. The screen periodically lags for a few seconds, and it has previously stalled on me for a while. I've always had network and performance issues. In fact, it is the most useful tool I have ever used.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Because misconfigurations can be found using security rules and customized policies, loudHealth offers real-time visibility into the security posture of our cloud. Additionally, the platform gives me the ability to prioritize concerns based on numerical risk levels and offers visual context for swiftly analyzing and fixing issues. I appreciate that CloudHealth creates reports and tables that provide a fantastic visual picture of cloud consumption trends and assist in locating any areas where cloud usage charges are exorbitant.
