Thanks for the feedback. Our goal is certainly to make a visually beautiful product. As far as floor diagrams, racks, and specific hardware, we want Commando.io to be used by everybody, including AWS, Rackspace, Linode, so building those specific features is probably over-scope.

Monitoring is a market that already has some amazing companies (ServerDensity, NewRelic). The missing piece is management, provisioning, automation of servers within a web-interface.

Nodes deployed in a virtual environment are still assigned to a location. Linode for instance provides different datacenters, AWS provides availability zones. A grouping can take care of most of this problem, however relations between the nodes need to be visualized.

For management tools do exist, just not fancy looking but get the job done... it should be a full package; monitoring and deployment, etc etc go hand in hand.
