Find out what your peers are saying about VMware, Nutanix, IBM and others in Cloud Management."The most valuable aspect of the solution is the interface on the console."
"Most valuable features are quick provisioning, High Availability, and DRS for balancing workload."
"VMware vSphere has a lot of features that are valuable, such as multiple clusters, VM mobility, VDI, and virtual desktop."
"It has allowed us to be more resilient to infrastructure and hardware failure, reduced hardware costs, and decreased recovery time from failures."
"There is the simplicity of management, accessibility, and availability."
"The ability to monitor resource utilization."
"VMware Tanzu (container) is the most valuable addition because you get an efficient solution to manage the VM and container in a single pane of glass."
"It helps us with TCO."
"vMotion radically changes the way we think about how we can operate a large infrastructure, and notably, in terms of proactive maintenance."
"The customization should be improved."
"The HR proxy is actually a little bit tricky to install and setup."
"The UI of VMware could use some improvements, especially in dark mode."
"It is expensive. They can improve the licensing cost for Cloud Director. They can also improve the integration with other applications and the metering feature, which is currently not flexible."
"My biggest suggestion would be some kind of a mechanism - and it's almost an AI-type thing, a Siri/Cortana - for where to find how to do certain things. If there was the ability to just type in a basic question and say, "How do I change the VM settings for this?" and it could bring me right there, that would be really awesome."
"Integration with different platforms could be improved."
"The VMware vSphere app is faster, compared to its web-based client. The web-based client is very slow, freezes, and is challenging to use."
"VMware vSphere needs to increase the datastore volume."
"Generally, the user interface needs to be improved for non-technical people."
