Features: vCenter Orchestrator automates complex IT services, streamlining workflows within VMware environments. It supports automation and integration with third-party applications. Its single dashboard simplifies managing virtual machines and tasks. Comindware Tracker shines in business process management, offering customization without coding. Its workflow management, agile support, and drag-and-drop interface enhance usability for non-technical users.

Room for Improvement: vCenter Orchestrator could improve by simplifying integrations with non-VMware systems, enhancing its user interface, and reducing complexity in IT workflows.

Provides automatic monitoring capabilities that save time for users

In my company's IT environment, we use the tool to deploy production environments for products, including live manufacturing systems. The product improves my company's IT automation processes since we can use fewer resources currently. In my company, we need to spend less time considering that vCenter Orchestrator monitors everything. In general, we don't have to be present in our company to do active monitoring. Automatic monitoring is available for everything with vCenter Orchestrator, so we have proactive alerts in our company. The most valuable feature of the product in streamlining our company's workflow stems from the fact that we need to spend fewer resources and less time in general. Our company can spend time on more effective tasks like working with the plans to improve processes and so on, instead of taking care of the systems. The benefits of the product's integration capabilities were useful for HPE. My company has HPE infrastructure, and we are keen to integrate everything into the host, VMware ESXi. It is really important to have an easy integration method that allows for everything to be installed easily in a matter of minutes. I was not involved in the product's setup process. My colleague took care of the product's setup process. From what I know, I can say that the product's setup phase was straightforward. Some custom setups were to be done manually in the tool, but everything was well documented. I recommend the product to those who plan to use it. One of the benefits of the product is that it is a low-cost and stable solution that offers a lot of resources. I rate the overall tool a nine out of ten.

"The most valuable feature is that any non-technical personnel can easily work on the solution, redefining processes and creating drag and drop workflows according to the department or cross-department needs."

"It is perhaps the most user-friendly web forms automation software. At least, I did not find anything better while testing several others similar to it."

More Comindware Tracker pros

"The open, flexible architecture has brought in the agile computing environment along with better Dr capabilities. Automation management and operational tasks across VMware and third-party applications, like our HMIS and other business productivity applications, have delivered peace of mind."

"User-friendly and easy to deploy."

"The tool is very beneficial for automating workflow."

"The most valuable feature is affinity rules."

"The most crucial feature of vCenter is its scalability. We can use it to expand our network, so we don't have to report our client devices. The network configuration features are also helpful because we can migrate entire networks."

More vCenter Orchestrator pros

Cons

"There are not very many report templates, and if there were more, it would really help."

"The initial setup can be quite slow and finicky."

"We are using the backdated version of this software. That is why we lack of some features. I hope when we update the version, then all the problems will be solved."

"If your organization has only a few team members then this tool is not suitable."

"The initial setup seemed a bit complex, and there is no great documentation."

"I am expecting new updates to improve the software."

"I would like them to offer a one-time payment plan that one can choose."

"The OpenAPI is good, but it is not enough. It lacks out-of-box integrations with popular web services."

More Comindware Tracker cons

"I did not do the initial setup. However, it was complex at the beginning."

"Enhancing the platform's setup process intuitiveness and offering more flexible pricing options could further improve its accessibility across different company sizes."

"The only point for improvement is the price, which has increased by 135%, making it very expensive."

"The solution has a limited count of parallel executions, which can be a bottleneck for larger environments."

"I would like to see, from within the Web Console, being able to define the project and custom templates per user; almost like how CloudSpec has approached the solution."

"The solution's price could be cheaper."

"Using this solution requires a lot of experience."

"It is too expensive. One of the main issues is the price."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I benefit from this software by getting a variety of reporting options and features for a relatively low cost"

"The pricing and licensing is as per market standards, except that the process of extending licenses is also easy."

"Great value for the money."

"Setup cost is reasonable and average on the market. They offer simple licensing and price per user."

"Price per user works for me when they do not count my clients, which fill forms."

"The price is so reasonable."

"This solution has a very lost cost."

"vCenter Orchestrator is a very expensive solution."

"We provide the VMware solution to our clients, for which they pay a perpetual license."

"The licensing cost is manageable because they have different versions available, standard, essential, and advanced."

"The licensing module is somewhat complex. Calculating the cost is complicated. Many of our clients are unclear about the billing system and the traffic metering."

"The concept of hyper-convergence is smart. I don't know if it can be applied with less cost to be more affordable for small or medium-sized companies. The cost is a very important factor for it. We are currently depending on SAN storage. However, the hyper-converged solutions are depending on the storage within the hosts, such as vSAN in the VMware. It is a smart solution."

"vCenter Orchestrator could be more affordable."

"My organization didn't have to pay extra for vCenter Orchestrator. It was already included, so it's basically free. Even VMware regular support is included."

"The solution is a bit expensive."
