What do you like best about the product?
When you're working on different kinds of virtual machines some with faster or solwer processors and storage this really helps everything run smmothly.
What do you dislike about the product?
In my case, all our virtual machines use the same CPU nd fast storage. Since most of them are treated as medical devices, we have to follow strict rules. But setting that aside, it would be great if we could make sure these machines always keep the same resources/
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Making clear decisions about a few key features and whether to use a specific machine or VCP license is important. The cost of extra workloads and infrastructure really matters for the business. Still, I personally like using this.

What do you like best about the product?
After implementing Cloudability our cloud billing has become much faster to publish, we have relied on the flexibility provided to assist us with other task such as tag controls, annual license true up, using API to export data to some of our in-house tools and many more.
What do you dislike about the product?
After the initial IBM M&A the product updates have been a little bit chaotic (we are waiting on some features previously announced, but not yet delivered e.g. user grouping for access controls), but I am definitely seeing that this is ramping up and I am positive that great further updates will come.
