We performed a comparison between Microsoft Azure and Nutanix Cloud Clusters (NC2) based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Infrastructure as a Service Clouds (IaaS) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The tool's most valuable features are SQL servers and Managed Instance databases."
"I think the most useful feature has been the remote desktop. It has been very helpful when customers have old applications that are not architected to run remotely."
"The platform's user-friendliness eliminates the need for lengthy training periods, enabling swift navigation for new users."
"It's very easy to build a new service and get it into production."
"We find that it is easy to integrate with other Microsoft technologies such as Microsoft Office."
"The stability is very good. The performance is excellent."
"The most important thing is we don't have to maintain any physical infrastructure. With typical conventional on-premise solutions, we have to maintain many things like the hardware, clusters, etc. With this cloud platform, you don't have to worry about all those things. We have the service always available, and this is the main advantage. I like that we use everything on our standard Active Directory on on-premises on Azure. The key advantage is that you can have the sole indication based on the cloud. This isn't possible with an on-premise Active Directory. This enables work from home and at the office because it's on the cloud."
"Data analytics is one of the efficient features as well."
"The most valuable features of Nutanix Clusters are Prism Central, Micro-segmentation, and cluster scaling automation."
"The solution can scale well."
"In terms of dealing with our business-critical workloads, Nutanix is a highly scalable, highly resilient, and very high-performing solution."
"Having a single pane of glass where you can have both your on-prem and anything else that you spin up within AWS is useful."
"The overall infrastructure is the most valuable part of Nutanix Cloud Clusters."
"The scalability is good."
"I've been very pleased with their support overall."
"The most valuable feature is having the full features of my Nutanix on-premises applications in the cloud."
"Predictability and quality. Make sure things work predictable, as expected, and documented."
"The solution needs to offer more data analysis services."
"The deployment was quite complex."
"When we are doing transfers of records in large amounts, for example, petabytes of data or few long datasets, the performance should not degrade as it does."
"The product is not user-friendly."
"The solution could improve the stability. However, this could be a configuration issue that we are not been trained."
"They can add more documentation about the solution."
"When we work with Microsoft Azure we deploy it in a hybrid system. We do many operations with the open stack and I used it for APIs connected to Microsoft Azure. The reduction is because those APIs and our tools that are required to connect are not for the Microsft Azure solution. It has a bit of complexity, nothing to do with Microsoft Azure as a CSP."
"Perhaps the one thing that could be improved is the documentation around the solution."
"We've had some challenges with the implementation."
"The technical support for Nutanix Clusters could be better."
"The pricing can be better."
"The biggest weakness with Clusters at this point is that the adoption rate is low because customers don't know enough about it."
"Some of the interfaces aren't as intuitive as they should be."
"The reporting has room for improvement."
"There are still some things that could be improved about the product."
