Unified management has simplified daily operations and has reduced troubleshooting time
Nutanix Prism is a unified management control plane, so it simplifies our operations on a daily basis with computing, storage, networking, and virtualization using a single platform. We can manage our VMs by automating them, using one-click upgrades at different cluster levels, and monitoring our VMs. The best features are unified management, one-click upgrades, intelligent operation management, and built-in security with automated management. It simplifies day-to-day tasks. Built-in security in Nutanix Prism helps as it includes role-based access management, which is known as RBAC. By giving specific roles to specific users, we manage our security. There is also a cluster lockdown capability and an auditing feature. We use RBAC for managing all the workloads that are present on Nutanix Prism. Automated management simplifies everyday tasks and provides network load balance visibility.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The primary use case of this solution is to manage and to protect the web servers, the mail server, and the website in my company."
"The technical support is good."
"It is easy to identify and collect information from all of the nodes on the network."
"I would suggest you use this product as it's easy for administration, and is based on distributed model support."
"All I know is that when it comes to managing the active directory, ManageEngine is something I consider to be the best."
"The product helps users stay on top of gaining insight into the active directory, permissions and security sets, and user group policy changes."
"The monitoring capability is easy to use and it can be done without any training."
"Customer Service: Absolutely fantastic."
"The ability to do snapshots is fantastic. It does a great job. Not only do snapshots work great, but you can take a snapshot on the fly. The snapshot takes a second to complete. You can then make a change and test it out to see if it works. If you have any problem, just roll it right back."
"The most valuable feature of Nutanix Prism is the single location management. You can manage everything from one location HTML5 web interface which is highly intuitive. The solution is easy to use, you do not need to be an expert in storage."
"It can combine computing, storage and networks in a single location."
"Has a user-friendly UI with a centralized console."
"Nutanix has one of the greatest support organizations that I've ever had to use. They're polite, you get someone on the phone fast, and they always find a solution for you."
"Simplicity of use."
"It also does a good job when it comes to optimizing performance with machine learning and AI. It's able to identify the VMs that are constrained and not constrained, and which ones are "bully" or not. It gives you a recommendation based on your usage. It learns your user environment."
"The centralized management of Nutanix Prism is the best feature, as I can upgrade the hardware and I can upgrade the software from there."
 

Cons

"We would like to have support for integration with ServiceDesk."
"This is because of the lack of available technical knowledge in terms of competence and maximizing the power of the product."
"The GUI could be improved."
"ManageEngine needs to fix the downtime scheduler for SNMP monitored devices. Alarms are still generated for the devices placed into scheduled maintenance."
"We would like to have support for integration with ServiceDesk."
"The product could use more intelligence, automation and general availability of product information."
"The ManageEngine features could improve to show graphs of the traffic and network utility."
"The ManageEngine features could improve to show graphs of the traffic and network utility."
"The dashboard visibility could be improved."
"The dashboard visibility could be improved."
"We can't really depend on Nutanix Prism, so we are currently just using it for non-essential work in our site."
"I think that the Nutanix Prism Pro terms it uses are not very user-friendly. Those terms should be a little more user-friendly."
"The process of converting and importing virtual machines to the Nutanix environment is quite complicated."
"The stability has room for improvement."
"While the average stability is good, I find that the upgrade process of all the components of Nutanix are too slow."
"The simplicity that Prism provides is something of a dual-edged sword. It can be almost too simple at times. When there is an issue and something is really wrong, it can make it a little more difficult to track it down because the Prism interface is very limited for drilling down into those highly technical or highly complicated errors."

"Nutanix Prism is quite an expensive solution compared to VMware."
"Compared to VMware, the price of this solution is great."
"Nutanix is a little pricier, but the features it has are worth it."

"This product is cheaper than using VMware."
"The licensing aspect is painful. We are told, "This is when you have to renew. This is the serial number and the part number," et cetera. But it's difficult to know where something belongs unless you dive into the portal and search in multiple areas for a particular serial number."
