Performance of devices can be evaluated and enhanced in software-defined systems. For example, a computing device can receive, at a server of a software-defined system, a first plurality of properties describing a client system in the software-defined system. The computing device can compare, by the server, the first plurality of properties to additional properties describing at least one additional client system in the software-defined system. The computing device can determine, by the server, an adjustment for the client system based on the comparison and a similarity of the client system to each of the at least one additional client system. The computing device can output, by the server, an indication of the adjustment to the client system.
