Easy to deploy, worth the money, and helpful for uptime monitoring and performance insights

Pros

"For us, the ease of deployment in combination with TMZ was the most important part because we don't have to manually deploy a complex monitoring solution. We can more or less do that with the click of a button, and we are not dependent on the developers to provide us with all the necessary features and functions to make that work. We can just deploy it on a workload cluster and monitor at least a good part of the workload. If we want to go into detail, we clearly need to make changes, but for a good part of application monitoring, it gives us good insights."

Cons

"Its billing model is consumption-based. I understand the consumption-based model, but it is not necessarily easy to estimate and guess how many points or how much we are going to consume on a specific application up until we get to that point. So, for us, it would be helpful to have more insights or predictability into what we can expect from a cost perspective if we are starting to use specific features. This can potentially also drive our consumption a bit more."

Centralized management for multiple environments from a single pane of glass

Quick solution that is great for virtualization and preparing infrastructure to test products

Pros

"The solution is great for virtualization and preparing the infrastructure in Tanzu to test products. It's very fast and has good visibility. "

Bestows support and security for container platforms, with easy integrations

Pros

"Tanzu itself, integrated with multiple solutions, bestows support and security upon a container platform, especially when it comes to managing open-source container platforms such as Kubernetes. "

Cons

"The main problem I have is that the license cost is very high. "

Good stability but overall still needs more technology enhancements and better automation

Pros

"No issues with stability."

Cons

"It could use a URL document server. Everything in the market is moving towards automation and everybody's looking for the single click operations as well relational data locality."

Great querying and alerting capabilities but it has a high learning curve

Pros

"The features I find most valuable is the querying and alerting capabilities."

Cons

"In the new version, I would love to see more prediction capabilities. It would be great if one could see the alerts get a little more enriched with information and become more human-friendly instead of the technical stuff that they put in there. I think those would be really awesome outcomes to get."

Useful technology with helpful support but it's hard to set up Tanzu clusters

Pros

"VMware comes with a support team, and if you have trouble, you can easily create a ticket, and VMware will help you. Therefore, the best aspect is the support. "

Cons

"The initial setup should be easier and more seamless. "

Provides the relevant metrics that we need to monitor our systems and the environment

Pros

"The most valuable aspects of the solution are its ease of use and its ease of implementation."

Cons

"They could make it more easy to plug-in data so that a nontechnical person will be able to use it, like accountants or finance people. That way they don't have to ask us."
