# Benefits of PMO

## Developer Self-service

With PMO any user, including developers, are able to quickly and easily build Virtual Machine (VM) instances. Platform9 also enables developers to launch multi-tier applications that are composed of multiple VMs with a single click. Once an application has been deployed, PMO will track the usage as part of leases and quota restrictions ensuring that no sinlge user or tenant exceeds their allocated resources, thus greatly simplifying resource management and enabling agility for greater business productivity.

## Orchestration & Application Stacks

Complex multi-tier applications can be quickly deployed and torn down utilizing out of the box orchestration included with PMO. Self-service users and administrators have access to create custom orchestration stacks that can be integrated in development, testing and production to greatly accelerate development cycles and drive consistency in each environment.

## Enhancing VMware vSphere for Developers

With PMO developers no longer need to log into vCenter to build and maintain virtual machines. And VMware administrators no longer need to manually wrangle virtual machine sprawl with countless spreadsheets.

PMO connects directly to vSphere and creates a self-service portal with leases and quota management that enables developers to get what they want, when they need it and removes the need for VMware administrators to manually manage developer virtual machines.
