It can tell us where performance is lagging on the hardware layer, but the reporting on the application layer is lacking
The automation area could be improved, and the generic reports are poor. We want more details in the analysis report from the application layer. The reports from the infrastructure layer are satisfactory, but Turbonomic won't provide much information if we dig down further than the application layer. I would like them to add some apps for physical device load resourcing and physical-to-virtual calculation. It gives excellent recommendations for the virtual layer but doesn't have the capabilities for physical-to-virtual analysis. Automated deployment is something else they could add. Some built-in automation features are helpful, but we aren't effectively using a few. We want a few more automated features, like autoscaling and automatic performance optimization testing would be useful.

The ability to autoscale based on load is the most valuable feature. I would highly recommend it.
It used to be the ability to autoscale based on load I was able to to deal with requests without needing every server on; I could turn them off. Compatibility with SoftLayer I think was our block. Rackspace was fine, as far as I know. I think I have been using it for a few months. We didn’t…

A quick note on CloudBolt actually: any CB server is within control of the CloudBolt customer; they can decide when to upgrade CB, and they have root access to it.

While I would rate Scalr over BMC Cloud Lifecycle Management - our research strongly recommends RightScale over the above choices.
