Find out in this report how the two Hybrid Cloud Computing Platforms solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Generally speaking, I have not found any faults using Linode. For what we wanted, they provided a complete solution."
"The fact that you can get a person on the phone has just been fantastic."
"The cloud management panel is nice."
"The number one thing we like about Linode isn't necessarily a service, it's their support. We've found their support to be absolutely fantastic. They've been so outstanding with their support. Every single time we call them and we ask for advice or help, they go above and beyond and it's really made us appreciate what they do."
"We can scale up and down as we require."
"The fact that you can do any Linux distribution is great. You can try out any Linux distribution, even some of the more obscure ones, and they are always keeping them up-to-date. As soon as a new distribution comes out, it is on the platform pretty much the same day, which I find really helpful."
"The most valuable feature is that they are flexible and easy to get ahold of if I need something."
"They have a very nice web interface to allow you to manage and reorganize your server."
"The scalability is good."
"In terms of dealing with our business-critical workloads, Nutanix is a highly scalable, highly resilient, and very high-performing solution."
"The overall infrastructure is the most valuable part of Nutanix Cloud Clusters."
"The most valuable features of Nutanix Clusters are Prism Central, Micro-segmentation, and cluster scaling automation."
"I've been very pleased with their support overall."
"The solution can scale well."
"Having a single pane of glass where you can have both your on-prem and anything else that you spin up within AWS is useful."
"The most valuable feature of Nutanix Clusters is to protect the data."
"When it comes to marketing and exposure, Linode needs improvement because I just randomly found them by looking for Linux solutions."
"It's not really an issue with Linode itself but upgrading Linux major versions can be challenging. It would be be fantastic if Linode developed a way to ease transitioning to a major new Linux upgrade."
"I would like Linode (without cluttering things) to provide some type of DevOps workflow where people are configuring their pipelines from running their tests and deploying to their test server. Once approved by clicking a button, it just gets deployed to production. I would like something like Azure DevOps, which we use for large applications, and would be something nice to have in Linode."
"There is room for improvement regarding customer support."
"I would like to see more seamless integration with backup, although it's pretty easy to do."
"It would be helpful if they provided the additional Linux distributions that I prefer using. But there is still a workaround. I can do it without direct support. It's a bit more complicated, but it can still be done."
"They recently changed the web interface and although the older one did not look as good, the new one is less responsive."
"Before they changed the dashboard, I found some of the more granular options easier to find."
"The reporting has room for improvement."
"I'd like more flexible options to get in and out of migration modes."
"There are still some things that could be improved about the product."
"The biggest weakness with Clusters at this point is that the adoption rate is low because customers don't know enough about it."
"We've had some challenges with the implementation."
"Some of the interfaces aren't as intuitive as they should be."
"The technical support for Nutanix Clusters could be better."
"Perhaps the one thing that could be improved is the documentation around the solution."
