We performed a comparison between Proxmox VE and RHEV based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Server Virtualization Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I have a program on my old machine with 380 events, but I need to create new events. This is much easier to do with VFXTHs, and I have the skills to do it. I also have two VPNs running on the old machine, which I can use to get started."
"The solution's most valuable feature is backups."
"It's been a stable solution."
"It has a good performance and you can cluster it."
"It is easy to deploy."
"We had issues with this solution when it comes to resources. We have officially created four to five PMs and it just continues to make more resources even though they are delivered in the main post mode."
"It's very user-friendly."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"Technically, the main reason why I'm using Red Hat is because of its stability."
"Stability and speed are the most valuable aspects."
"RHEV’s cost is much less compared to VMware."
"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"The solution is stable."
"What they provide is way beyond the essential requirements of customers."
"It is easy to deal with when comes to application migration and its compatibility with the multiple component applications."
"I can control and manage everything. I know everything that's cooking inside. This is the best part for me."
"We have only command lines for a management application to remove sites. The solution needs a proper GUI."
"The initial setup has a pretty steep learning curve."
"The solution needs to move to the cloud. It would be nice if they made it more robust there."
"Proxmox VE needs improvement in cloud computing."
"The facility of deployment is an area that needs to improve."
"The tool needs to add a lot of containers."
"The compatibility with non-English operating systems needs to be improved."
"The product is still a little young so it is maturing, but new features are coming out all the time."
"It lags behind in that you need to go to something like Fedora to get all the extra bells and whistles."
"The availability of technical expertise with the solution may be limited in some areas."
"When we do a direct comparison, then obviously VMware does better in terms of having Fault Tolerance and doing active disaster recovery and these kind of things. This is something that can be improved within Red Hat."
"While everything needs improvement in some way, I have no specifics."
"The biggest improvement would be more third-party direct support for things like backups and provisioning through third-party portals."
"We would like the dashboard feature of this solution to be improved, as it is not very detailed at present."
"I heard that there are big differences between Red Hat eight and seven, but it's still quite difficult for me to judge it. I found it a bit more difficult to manage than version seven, which was much easier. In term of features, though, it is still not yet clear which is better. I have no clear idea of which features need to be changed at the moment."
"The UI should be more interactive with additional features."
