"Complex kubernetes platform"
What do you like best about Tanzu?

Since the Tanzu is part of the existing vsphere solution , it is easy to manage for the admins , TMC tool for tanzu administration is made in such a way that admins can easily understand it to create & manage the k8s clusters. Creation & administration of RBAC is so simple via TMC. I like the granularity of Tanzu observability tool which gives the monitoring in effocoent way , can be integrated with 3rd party tools like helm , contour etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tanzu?

Tanzu implementation is so complex , may be it's my own point. Since we struggle to implement. TKGs is so simple to implement but TKGm is very complex , even after 6 months of struggle we couldn't implement & we dropped it ( even we have vmware support). The vmware tanzu support is not so great. For any tanzu issues they take more time to resolve. And faced couple of tanzu issues which doesn't have any solution except to recreate the k8s cluster.

"VMware Tanzu: An Optimal Solution"
What do you like best about Tanzu?

It's been an ideal option for me, enabling the platform to deploy the application successfully on a wide scale with consistent Kubernetes quality, giving me the advantage of having Multi-cloud Kubernetes management and End-to-end connection and security.

It also helps to modernize old apps without requiring any lifting, which is the beauty of this platform that allows customers like me to have smooth operation and deployments. Helps in integrating easily by using VMware vSphere in order to connect with other platforms.

I have been using it from past two years and the experience was really good and thanks for the customer support system also that lead me to solve the bugs quite easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tanzu?

It's a really good platform, but when compared to other cloud solution providers, users don't always choose it first. In my experience, too, integration isn't as good as when using cloud providers like AWS and Azure, though synchronization with Kafka might be a little simpler.

Tanzu is not a wise choice in such scenario because the support is also not that great if we require the first implementation and a better integration solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"VMware Tanzu: Making the cloud easy"
What do you like best about Tanzu?

Tanzu was so easy to set up, it's like having the greatest cloud backup. The way it manages Kubernetes is pure magic and the way it works well with different clouds is a game changer. Expansion is stress-free and it's important to play it safe. I love the flexibility the runtime box gives me, it allows me to use the tools I love. When it comes to collaboration, Tanzu is the ultimate team player with extensive cloud support and CI/CD tools. It's like having a tech expert who complicates things Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tanzu?

Tanzu's learning curve was steeper than I expected, so my initial research was a bit of a headache. The data is clear, but there are simpler methods available. I often get distracted by jargon. Sometimes UI glitches can cause performance issues, and the tendency to use the platform abruptly can cause headaches. Improvements could be made regarding integration with CI/CD tools. Installation feels like a chore rather than a smooth process. Tanzu has her strengths, but her quirks can also be surprising. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"My buddy to help in faster development process!"
What do you like best about Tanzu?

I've been impressed with how Tanzu has streamlined my app development process, allowing me to get my projects into production much faster. The platform focus on security gives me peace of mind, knowing that my applications are built on a solid foundation. Tanzu also automates many of the platform operations tasks, which frees up my time to focus on what I do good indirect developing great apps. The user interface is easy to navigate, and everything integrates seamlessly, making Tanzu a joy to work with. I highly recommend VMware Tanzu to any developer looking to boost their productivity and create top-notch applications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tanzu?

Tanzu is a strong tool for managing Kubernetes and developing apps, but it has some downsides to consider. It can be complex to learn, it ties you to VMware, it doesn't have as many third-party tools, and it can be expensive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Complicating App Development with Process"
What do you like best about Tanzu?

Tanzu, in managing Kubernetes and making app development difficult. It has a bit of a learning curve and initial setup difficulty once you get the hang of it becomes hectic to use. The integration with CI/CD tools needs to be improved. The installation process needs to be smoother. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tanzu?

Tanzu is marketed as a cost saving solution but lacks evidence of how it reduces expenses. It claims to simplify processes the platforms lack of transparency and detailed explanations make it difficult to trust. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
