"The deployment is easy."
"The solution has more capabilities than OpenStack and integrates well with NSX and vCenter."
"The product allows us to add or remove features."
"vCloud Director is a scalable solution, and we have 10 customers who use it."
"What I found most valuable in vCloud Director is the multi-tenancy."
"vCloud is a good platform for visualization. It is very handy for monitoring. VMware can integrate with all monitoring systems like vRealize, and the management monitoring is good. I'm very happy with VMware. VMware is good in management and monitoring systems."
"Performance improvements in the UI would be appreciated."
"This product needs to improve its graphical user interface."
"The cross-platform arena, where you can run work on multiple platforms, needs improvement."
"I am looking forward to more of their dashboard features. I think it would be very valuable for us to have dashboard features that could be delivered to our customers in the form of a URL, and they could refresh that URL whenever they wanted to get up to date performance metrics out of our systems."
"We are trying to see if we can use this from a cloud perspective with AWS, Azure, and other clouds, but it seems that there is no cloud integration in this product. We would like to see cloud integration. We are very pleased with this solution, but we are moving our application to the cloud, and we found out that it doesn't support any cloud features. So, we are trying to find a replacement."
"The lack of documentation, that is an issue. When we do need to bring it down for maintenance, it is always a scary moment for us because we have never had it crash."
"More benefits with the agent upgrades, and that's about it. Other than that we have no complaints with it. It's been awesome."
"The solution could improve by having support for container environments."
"There are some shortcomings. There are bugs with opening support."
"The initial setup of the vCloud Director was not complex and not easy, it was in the middle range of difficulty. It could be made easier."
"If I just need to look for something quickly, it's quite difficult to find it with the way it's set up now. They should make the search button better."
"Sometimes, there is a disconnection that happens between vCloud Director and its underlying VMware vCenter, where the actions are supposed to be taking place, making it an area where improvements are required."
"If you have a deployed environment and lose it, you can't easily deploy it back with vCloud Director. Because of this reason, we don't have the data protection, disaster recovery, and container features."
"It would be beneficial if some features were built into the platform rather than requiring integration with multiple products, reducing complexity and licensing concerns."
"Lacks integration with the hyperscalers."
"The tool needs to add more features to improve the console."
