We performed a comparison between Microsoft Azure and Nutanix Cloud Clusters (NC2) based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Infrastructure as a Service Clouds (IaaS) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Microsoft Azure has a lot of useful features. They have databases, application services, PaaS solutions, such as platform and infrastructure services. The virtual machines' functions and services are good."
"Azure allows us to bring applications to life quickly."
"Storage has made remote access to files much more painless and easy."
"It is quick and easy to deploy. It is flexible, and we can deploy a resource anytime. We like and prefer the pay-as-you-go model."
"Databricks is really nice because you have the power to process lots of data and you can create queries and provide big analysis for the business using a robust cluster."
"Some months ago, we started using Power BI embedded, which helped optimize the number of licenses for our company."
"I use a virtual machine for remote desktop and Microsoft Azure is user-friendly."
"The most important thing is we don't have to maintain any physical infrastructure. With typical conventional on-premise solutions, we have to maintain many things like the hardware, clusters, etc. With this cloud platform, you don't have to worry about all those things. We have the service always available, and this is the main advantage. I like that we use everything on our standard Active Directory on on-premises on Azure. The key advantage is that you can have the sole indication based on the cloud. This isn't possible with an on-premise Active Directory. This enables work from home and at the office because it's on the cloud."
"The scalability is good."
"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 features of Nutanix Clusters are Prism Central, Micro-segmentation, and cluster scaling automation."
"The most valuable feature of Nutanix Clusters is to protect the data."
"The solution can scale well."
"In terms of dealing with our business-critical workloads, Nutanix is a highly scalable, highly resilient, and very high-performing solution."
"I've been very pleased with their support overall."
"The most valuable feature is having the full features of my Nutanix on-premises applications in the cloud."
"The cost management and billing section features could be improved."
"They can add more documentation about the solution."
"We need more security to be available on our smartphones and mobile devices."
"I would like to see all of the cloud providers be more compatible with each other."
"I would like to see Internet content filtering included."
"The solution's email hosting pricing could be improved."
"The management portal can be confusing sometimes. We have difficulty navigating the menus because the terminology is unclear, especially when referring to the content or actionable items."
"Dashboards and reporting could be improved."
"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."
"The technical support for Nutanix Clusters could be better."
"Perhaps the one thing that could be improved is the documentation around the solution."
"There are still some things that could be improved about the product."
"I'd like more flexible options to get in and out of migration modes."
"Some of the interfaces aren't as intuitive as they should be."
"The reporting has room for improvement."
