"The solution's biggest advantage is flexibility"
"I find the self-service features valuable."
"Role-based access control and application blueprinting."
"The initial deployment was super easy."
"The unified platform is also very user-friendly and clickable, similar to the Windows environment, making it easier for users to navigate and maintain."
"The executive dashboard is valuable and provides a complete sense of the whole infrastructure."
"It is easy to access. Since it is web-based, you just punch in the API and it gives you all the servers in the company. The solution has helped optimize database performances."
"The Nutanix stack is hyper-converged. I don't need to buy expensive SAN storage because it's integrated into the hardware appliance. That's the best part. We get excellent latency by leveraging local storage."
"Nutanix Cloud Manager's interface offers valuable insight, providing me with the comfort of knowing everything is functioning optimally and can be upgraded with a single click."
"The solution is very stable...Customer support is very good."
"Moreover, the deployment process was so easy and smooth that post rack and stack and management IP configuration, it just took less than 2 days to configure the cluster of 40 nodes, upgrade the firmware, create file service and VM space and integrate with our infrastructure."
"The most valuable features are the compliance features and the chargebacks."
"Could increase the number of integrations and add more out-of-the-box work flows."
"The scheduling feature of CloudBolt needs improvement because sometimes, it doesn't work."
"The area of integrating on-prem and cloud needs improvement."
"The management of SaaS must be improved."
"The solution is not easy to use. It's not intuitive enough to click anywhere in the solution and make it work."
"There is room for improvement in making the solution easier still. If you don't know Calm, it's not so easy to use... It is a really good solution for doing simple tasks, but it's not a good solution for complex tasks."
"When we tried to migrate an application from the old cluster, we couldn't run it on Nutanix’s native hypervisor."
"It could maybe have better documentation. Nutanix does have really good documentation, but it could have more details in the future."
"In Brazil, Nutanix Cloud Manager is not cheap."
"I still remember it was a struggle when we configured the initial network setup, that part was a little bit confusing about how exactly it works, we have two different Nutanix technicians who were on-site to help on the configuration. But both of them could not get right the first time, and we had to reset and start over again on both systems."
"There is room for improvement in the remote script execution. The way logs are shown in Calm, it's not always keeping up properly. It's really the interface that needs attention there. I believe it is something being worked on at the moment by Nutanix."
"I would appreciate more advanced networking features in the dashboard."
"We have faced some issues during operations, but when we log a case with Nutanix support, they help us to resolve them."
