Easy to Use
What do you like best about the product?
Turbonomic is easy to use and understand. I love the capacity planning tool to help us plan for future infrastructure hardware purchases. I also think the reporting is great and has proven to be very valuable to my leadership team.
What do you dislike about the product?
Over all the GUI is easy to use but it could be easier to find certain features/functions within the GUI.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Capacity planning which enables us to more accurately determine how much hardware we would need to add to bring on another application within our infrastructure.
Trustworthy Automation
What do you like best about the product?
I like that fact that it balances out the virtual environment, with little administration required. Set up your policies as desired, and let Turbonomic do its thing in the background.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's a little complex to learn initially, and the cost is somewhat high. But the feature set and reliability is great.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are able to get the most our of our existing hardware, by letting Turbonomic make CPU and memory decisions, and placing things on the correct host. This has enabled us to delay purchasing additional hardware, and also gives us great insight into the virtual environment. We can also run "plans" for the future, which is a great help with budgeting.

Great Product!
What do you like best about the product?
From the moment we started using it, we started seeing an instant return on investment. We had allocated way too much to some servers and not enough to other servers.

The only complaint that we may have is that they changed the pricing structure. We haven't seen that yet for this year so it may be over our budget.

We are saving on purchasing new storage and servers because we realize now that we have more than we need.
Great for capacity planning

The capabilities are incredible, but the interface is not always intuitive. That said, support is fantastic - when I have a business problem to solve, they will help me use the tools to resolve it.
