		<description>Alex,

Thanks for the question. Both, CapacityIQ is a capacity monitoring tool which can also be used to find bottlenecks. It has features that show trends and recommends changes to fine tune VMs (memory/CPU) for best performance. It also flags VMs which are not being used so they can be evaluated for deletion so resources can be reclained. The best feature I thought it had was the forecasting which lets you estimate future growth and it generates a report that allows system administrator to plan accordingly. It&#039;s simular to VKernel&#039;s capacity analyzer but has more features.

Hope this helps.</description>

		<description>Hi there
Is CapacityIQ a planning tool or a capacity monitoring tool?
Will it show capacity bottlenecks?</description>
