  • Review verified by G2

Recommendations to others considering the product:
There are various CMP available but the options and functionality given by flexera is much convenient to use.

Best fit for our organisation

  • November 13, 2019

There is a lot of functionality, so it can be hard to find what I need.

Cost overview for each project with an individual overview.

Review what is available in the market. You might be looking for something different. The platforms provided offer many different services, not all are the same. CMP was the best fit fo my organisation.

Multiple Clouds in one place

  • November 12, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
We first started using the RightScale platform at a time when AWS only had an API and didn't have an administrative console. From the beginning RightScale made it possible to minimize the number of server images we needed by making it easy to create server templates that would take a common base image and configure it after boot. It also makes it easy to remote command things to run on multiple servers at once.
What do you dislike about the product?
Now that every cloud platform has a robust console up, the original benefit of having a web based console for managing servers instead of relying purely on an API has dwindled considerably. Most things I would have previously relied on CMP for can now be done with a few clicks in the individual cloud. As such the Cost to Value ratio on CMP has changed considerably since we joined. What was once a must-have feature is now a commodity.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We still use CMP to manage our instances on AWS. We use the array functionality to make easy arrays of servers behind ELBs and NLBs, and still use server templates and rightscripts to manage our instances easily. Being able to use a relative few number of server templates and have near infinite flexibility in what the servers do on launch is a great plus that is hard to manage with APIs or the individual platform's management consoles alone.

Flexra/Righscale - Complete CMP

  • November 12, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Multi-cloud management, provisioning, orchestration
CAT Self-service portal
Cost management platform
What do you dislike about the product?
The learning curve, available documentation, slow support response etc.
UI
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
A single platform that combines multi-cloud management, different toolsets for DevOps without the need to manage siloed toolsets and processes.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
CMP market is probably in its early stage and it is difficult to find a correct platform that satisfies all the CMP requirements. I would rather choose the platform that is open and allows integration easily with other tools while it is trying to add more features.
