Worked right the first time out-of-the-box; we were provisioning to AWS within 10 minutes
Ironically, most of the features that we might have wanted to see were already introduced in the product announcement today, from what we saw in the beta, which was kind of cool. You can't come to market unless you have Azure support, and Azure was all over every slide we saw, so that was pretty cool. A couple of things that I did see, there are a couple of security features that need to be enhanced. It is way too easy to provision a VM onto a public cloud, wide open to everybody. So, there are a couple of issues there. We are obviously going to talk with the product teams and the architects about some of those things; a handful of things here and there. Most of the things we were looking for were already included. Things that we had requested a month ago, we are now seeing them here: Azure Stack integration and the OneView integration. These were the things we were saying, "Hey, if these were there, it would be really cool. We could use this." All of a sudden, "Oh hey, guess what is going to be at launch?" I am very eager to get my hands on the next version of this product, and to see what may or may not be missing.

Centralized dashboards have optimized multi-cloud costs and improved financial governance
VMWare Tanzu CloudHealth is a powerful cloud management platform, but there are areas for improvement. I would prefer to see more AI-driven insights that not only recommend optimization but also suggest automated remediation actions. Real-time cost synchronization could be faster, as billing data sometimes has delays. More customized dashboards and report templates would help teams tailor their needs better. Kubernetes cost visibility could be more granular for centralized workloads. Integration with ITSM and automation tools such as ServiceNow and Ansible could be enhanced. Simplifying initial onboarding and policy configuration would also improve the experience for new users. These enhancements would make the platform even more efficient for enterprise cloud operations. This tool is a mature and relevant cloud management platform with several areas that could be enhanced. I would prefer to see more advanced AI capabilities providing predictive insights and automated remediation for common optimization tasks. Better, faster synchronization of cloud billing and utilization data would enable near real-time cost monitoring. I want more customizable dashboards and executive reports tailored for different stakeholders such as FinOps, infrastructure, and management teams. Improving Kubernetes container cost visibility at the pod level is also necessary. I would prefer to see stronger AI-driven automation, faster real-time cost updates, more customizable dashboards, deeper Kubernetes cost visibility, enhanced DevOps integrations, and a simpler onboarding process as areas needing improvement. These enhancements would further increase operational efficiency and make the platform more valuable for enterprise cloud management.

"The problem is how the new company decided to package the products and destroy all the old VMWare ecosystem that they had for partners and for all the tools that the partners had."
