What do you like best?

We first started using the RightScale platform at a time when AWS only had an API and didn't have an administrative console. From the beginning RightScale made it possible to minimize the number of server images we needed by making it easy to create server templates that would take a common base image and configure it after boot. It also makes it easy to remote command things to run on multiple servers at once.

What do you dislike?

Now that every cloud platform has a robust console up, the original benefit of having a web based console for managing servers instead of relying purely on an API has dwindled considerably. Most things I would have previously relied on CMP for can now be done with a few clicks in the individual cloud. As such the Cost to Value ratio on CMP has changed considerably since we joined. What was once a must-have feature is now a commodity.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

We still use CMP to manage our instances on AWS. We use the array functionality to make easy arrays of servers behind ELBs and NLBs, and still use server templates and rightscripts to manage our instances easily. Being able to use a relative few number of server templates and have near infinite flexibility in what the servers do on launch is a great plus that is hard to manage with APIs or the individual platform's management consoles alone.
