Unified data access has boosted analytics speed but still needs better governance and cost control
The best feature that Cloudanix offers is the unified data access layer connecting multiple sources, allowing access to all data from one place. It ensures real-time sync data across systems on-demand, keeping data up to date without manual export. It has cross-platform compatibility across AWS, Azure, GCP databases, and SaaS applications, supports hybrid and multi-cloud environments, and simplifies data queries by letting users query multiple sources as if they are one instance, reducing the need for complex ETL pipelines. The best feature of Cloudanix is the ability to unify distributed data sources into a single, scalable, and easy-to-query layer for faster analytics and simple data management. I have seen specific outcomes and metrics such as reducing the time spent on stitching data sets from multiple systems, where queries now run directly across the connected layer. The analysis time drops from thirty to sixty minutes. Reporting cycles improve, with reports generated five times faster. I reduce engineering data team workload by thirty to fifty percent fewer ad hoc data extraction requests and achieve lower infrastructure and pipeline costs, reaching a ten to thirty percent cost saving in data pipelines and ETL maintenance. Moreover, improved decision speed leads to reduction in the decision cycle from days to hours, enhancing data consistency with fewer discrepancies between reports. For example, before Cloudanix, an analyst spent three hours pulling data from three systems and another two hours cleaning and joining it. After using Cloudanix, the same analysis can be done with one unified query that gets results in a minute, allowing focus to shift to interpretation instead of preparation. Consequently, Cloudanix typically delivers major gains in analyst productivity, achieving fifty to eighty percent faster data preparation and faster reporting cycles with reduced engineering workload and lower data pipeline costs by unifying access to distributed data sources.

Effective product tracking and monitoring enhances daily operations despite needing documentation improvement
The documentation part of Workspace ONE UEM can be confusing. The documentation is not comprehensive compared to other VMware solutions or Microsoft documentation. Most people struggle to connect the dots when looking at the documentation. Even the training material and PowerPoint slide decks that trainers use are sometimes too confusing or overwhelming, with too much content but not enough clarity. The support side has recently become weaker compared to what it used to be with VMware. This is another area that needs improvement. Since working with Workspace ONE UEM from when it was AirWatch, it has improved significantly over the last five years. However, there are still some gray areas and scope for improvement, especially in documentation and workflow between different aspects of the solution.

Quotes from Members

Pros

"Consequently, Cloudanix typically delivers major gains in analyst productivity, achieving fifty to eighty percent faster data preparation and faster reporting cycles with reduced engineering workload and lower data pipeline costs by unifying access to distributed data sources."
"Choosing Cloudanix has proven very efficient and intuitive, and it remains easy to handle compared to other products available in the market."
"VMware Workspace ONE is scalable."
"The Client Control feature in VMware Workspace ONE is most valuable for managing client devices, including mobile devices and laptops. Another impactful feature is the per-service tooling, allowing access to the data centre on a per-application basis. We use the complete VMware stack, integrating Horizon for application delivery and Carbon Black for endpoint protection. We have outsourced our device management, which streamlines our IT tasks as our supplier handles them competitively."
"The performance is good, and it is easy to configure."
"The most valuable feature of VMware Workspace ONE is the support for multiple devices. Not only iOS, and Android, but all kinds of platforms, including VR device management. Additionally, it has a tunneling feature, which no other solution provides. Other solutions have to integrate with other tools to have this functionality, whereas VMware Workspace ONE has its own application gateway tunnel."
"The solution is stable."
"A very easy to use solution."
"Right now we don't see there's an MDM solution out there that's better than VMware Workspace ONE."
"The solution includes support for remote work. It also features identity management. This setup supports our users remotely by providing default monitoring and tunneling into our environment, eliminating the need for additional VPN software to access backend applications and staff resources."
 

Cons

"Costs are flexible but can become unpredictable if query volume grows quickly."
"Cloudanix could improve by addressing the limitations in terms of customization."
"The Content Locker cannot inherit permissions for the Windows Public Folder. If they could integrate with Microsoft on this point, it would be the perfect functionality."
"There could be ease of integration within the environment. I didn't have any issues when using it, but the integration part was a bit difficult for the other team."
"I would like to see improvements made to both the support, and the pricing."
"Support is absolutely horrible. If I was not escalating through the account team that I've got, I would have practically no support on it whatsoever."
"The location service could improve and more integration with other devices, such as Android enterprise and Apple devices."
"The price is high. Also, the infrastructure requirements are huge."
"VMware Workspace ONE platform offers support for Mac Books and we see that there is some room for improvement in that area versus all the products out there."
"VMware Workspace ONE can improve in virtual reality. Customers are now looking toward virtual reality devices. Though it supports virtual reality, it's treated as an Android device. Customers want to deal with VR devices, they want a specific VR tool. Not an Android device VR tool."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"In some cases, a customer may feel the solution is expensive."
"There is a separate cost for technical support and extra premium features. The pricing should be simplified."
"I think that the price is reasonable."
"The solution is more expensive than Intune."
"VMware Workspace ONE is not cheap; it's quite expensive. However, in the end, they gave us a reasonable price."
"In terms of pricing, this solution is definitely much more expensive compared to other solutions, like MobileIron or MaaS360 or any other product in the market. This solution is more expensive by 30 or 40 percent."
"It's an expensive tool."
"All licenses from VMware are only yearly. They start with a yearly license and look for a three-year commitment and yearly PO."
