## Tanzu Reviews
  ### 1. Complicating App Development with Process

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Felipe I. | Support Team Leader, Government Relations, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 13, 2023

**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.

**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.

**What problems is Tanzu solving and how is that benefiting you?**

There are resources for learning and troubleshooting leaving users to deal with issues independently. Tanzu falls short of delivering on its promises and providing a reliable experience, for users. Tanzu provides no flexibility in managing our business applications.

  ### 2. Flexible but complicated

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Printing | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 03, 2022

**What do you like best about Tanzu?**

Create a cluster from scratch is very fast.

**What do you dislike about Tanzu?**

Day two operation were difficult. Upgrade cluster is not easy and is suggested to create newly upgraded cluster and migrate workflow.

We guess also that they change a lot of core component between two release.

**What problems is Tanzu solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It allows to create kubernetes on vsphere
