My Experience with Park My Cloud
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to manage the all cloud resources and schedule the parking.
What do you dislike about the product?
Assigning Teams and Groups for managed resources

It gives us maximum savings.
Turn on and off VAD machine
What do you like best about the product?
Being able to turn off the VAD machine in order to save costs
What do you dislike about the product?
Not being able to check on real time how much I was saving from turning off the machine
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I was using it to turn on and off a VAD machine so that i could save costs when I was not using it
Great tool for easily scheduling dev and test workloads in AWS
What do you like best about the product?
This is a great tool that allows me to easily schedule my AWS instances to stop and start as desired. The result is I get to save a ton of money on instances that don't need to be running 24/7, and the tool shows me exactly how much money I'm saving.
What do you dislike about the product?
The main issue I have with the tool is that I'm charged by the number of instances in my account, even for instances that I don't want to manage with the tool (e.g. production instances that I don't need to put on a parking schedule).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have a large number of development/test/QA instances that don't need to be running 24/7. Some only need to be running when a developer is in the office, some need to be off most of the time and only turned on when needed for a specific test. With this tool I can schedule instances, and I can also provide a simple web interface for developers to start up their instances when needed, and I don't have to give them any native rights in the AWS console.
Excellent tool to save many dollars
What do you like best about the product?
Very easy handling and simplicity when defining the scheduled schedules. Reduce cost efficiently.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing, in general, I like the tool. I don't find problems
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The problems we avoid and are solved by the tool are the unnecessary time that the servers in the cloud were on. This generated an extra cost that is not necessary.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Absolutely recommended to lower unnecessary costs on the cloud-based services like Google Cloud or AWS

See the billing between clouds and inventory of active services

not all clouds are included like digital ocean, only the big ones.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Inventory of active services and a concentrate site of all my services between clouds.
Nice simple UI with all relevant information
What do you like best about the product?
I like how clean the interface is and how easy it is to find the VM I'm looking for
What do you dislike about the product?
The navigation between sections could be slightly improved
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am using it mostly to monitor my VMs - it has been a good way to check when something goes down

Ease of management

Turbonomics allow me to focus on more critical issues. Not having to manage my virtual environment frees up a considerable amount of time and resources.
What do you dislike about the product?
A little cryptic to use. It took me awhile to understand how to operate it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use it to handle all DRS functions as well as a load balancer for all resources.
Recommendations to others considering the product:

Next-level workload automation
What do you like best about the product?
The ability for Turbonomic to constantly monitor both on-prem and off-prem workloads to assure performance and optimize our infrastructure and costs is great. While we are still rolling out the automation, the benefits already gained are great!
What do you dislike about the product?
There are several key data points that we have needed to download or export into a spreadsheet but the UI is very limited in that regard. There are a few widgets that allow for exporting the data to csv or xls but not nearly enough. Also, the reports are pretty basic and not very easy to work with.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
So far we have used Turbonomic to better balance our infrastructure by automating workload placements. We have also automated scale up/down actions for a couple non-prod environments. We are also using Turbo to run capacity plans and migrate to cloud plans.
