    We have looked at vRealize Operations manager (vRops) and have used vFoglight. Those tools are more designed for alerting and reporting after the issue/incident. VMTurbo is intended to move things around and size VMs to reduce the number of alerts. They (vRealize Operations

    We were using vROPs (vRealize Operations Manager) but felt it was too cumbersome to maintain without a dedicated resource. VMTurbo is much easier to use and maintain. Even though there is overlap in the 2 tools, we have kept vROPs as a "tactical troubleshooting tool" at the ESX …

    vRealize is a decent product however it only makes placement decisions, it doesn't automate intelligent workload placement. It also, in my opinion, is way too aggressive in its VM resource right-sizing recommendations.

    VMTurbo Operations Manager is so much easier and quicker to set up than vROPs. Additionally, it's much easier to train operations personnel on how to use versus the vROPs. You practically need a VMWare 4 year degree to configure vROPs.

    VMTurbo has a smaller computing and storage footprint than the other tools tested. It was very easy to set up and within 2 hours it was already highlighting areas of interest. There was no requirement to get any professional services involved, and no other products are required …

    We used VROPS from VMWare and found that VMTurbo Operations Manager was just a better product. It did things more fundamentally and was much easier to manage. I could have a lower end person managing VMTurbo Operations Manger than VROPS and I get more functionality also at a …
