Mark Wittling - PeerSpot reviewer
Cloud Architect at Cox communications
Works very well for advanced service chaining requirements and has extremely advanced engineers for support
We had a manager who thought that Cloudify could be used as a replacement for Horizon in OpenStack, but we found that Cloudify lacked the user interface or GUI for doing multitenancy and basic platform management tasks. Cloudify was really good at launching, for example, firewalls and configuring them and doing service chaining and rather advanced things like that, but it didn't meet the requirements for a basic platform management solution. It is something that seems to work better as a bolt-on or an augmented solution. It is a bit mis-marketed as a Cloud Management solution. It is not that. It is more of a service orchestration and automation tool. It is very good at doing that, but it fails to meet basic platform management requirements. Once you have it running, you can't really do anything with it without writing code and scripts. It requires a full-time DevOps person to use it. We deployed a Palo Alto firewall with it. That's basically what the project was for us, and it worked flawlessly once we got it finished, but it took another 12 weeks to get all of the automation and everything else coded, tested, and working. There is certainly a place for this technology, but when we got rid of OpenStack and moved to VMware, we either had to go with the vRealize Automation Suite to do this kind of automation, or we had to find an alternative solution to manage the private cloud. So, we put Cloudify in, but we really couldn't find it useful for basic platform administration tasks.

Has enabled teams to deliver secure cloud environments and proactively monitor for vulnerabilities
I build solutions for my customers that are deployed to hyperscalers. Naturally, my customers want these deployments to be secure. InviGrid's solution ensured that I was confident in this regard across every aspect. I use InviGrid to proactively monitor my AWS cloud to detect and report potential vulnerabilities and identify remediations.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"We have found that this is not an undue burden, and the extra work gives immense flexibility and portability."
"Extensible internal functions and plugins. Can implement custom plugins to fit your scenario. Python based plugins."
"Cloudify provides a good framework that you can build on to provide custom solutions for an organization."
"Valuable features are auto-scaling and load balancing."
"Has great extendability which means you can build your own custom logic."
"We have been able to realize ROI for our customers in the form of reduced cost, higher top line and increased valuation through improved profitability."
"Cloudify works in cases where you have very advanced service chaining requirements. It really works well there, and it fits the best. They have a standardized markup that's based on TOSCA, which is a standard. I like the fact that they're standards-based. Their solution works extremely well if you have the talent and the manpower to write TOSCA descriptors to deploy and interchange services or to automate the configuration and turn up of services."
"The TOSCA model allows modeling the application rather than the automation, providing a machine-readable representation of the application and its infrastructure that can also be used for the enterprise architecture big picture, showing who connects to whom."
"With its built-in expertise and automation, my DevOps engineers can now deliver audit-ready, compliant cloud environments seamlessly across our customer base."

Cons

"I did encounter any issues with scalability."
"Cloudify is not a turn-key solution, nor designed as such."
"The solution is a bit of a headache because mistakes happen in the blueprint every time we deploy and they require modifications."
"The solution could be improved with respect to error handling. If we want to troubleshoot further and deep dive, we don't have access to admin privileges to extract those errors."
"The solution is a bit of a headache because mistakes happen in the blueprint every time we deploy and they require modifications."
"We'd like to see the maturity of the plugins continue, including Amazon EMR and others."
"It lacked the user interface for multitenancy and basic platform management tasks. It is a leader in the niche area that they like to perform in, but it only does about 30% of top-tier advanced functions of platform management. It doesn't meet about 70% of what you need to manage a private cloud platform."
"Certainly the UI could use some intensive work, but nevertheless, overall, it’s a complete product with its 3.4 version and much better features are available with 4.0."
"While InviGrid covers major hyperscalers, I believe that deeper integrations with niche DevOps, monitoring, and compliance tools such as GitLab, HashiCorp Vault, and Prometheus would be beneficial."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I wasn't involved in the pricing of it because we were just doing prototype work with it, but I was told by the upper management team that it was quite expensive. That was another reason we switched to Morpheus."
