We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The most valuable feature for me was cost optimization.""The most beneficial features for us were the API integrations with various cloud vendors like Nutanix, VMware, AWS, Azure, and GCP. It saved us the effort of doing that work ourselves.""Morpheus provides a very easy and one-click solution to scaling up and down.""The multi-cloud integrations and the DevOps and operational integrations are the most valuable. Morpheus platform is a centralized set to manage different clouds and your on-premise platforms. It does a very good job of what it is designed to do. It is very good in terms of features. It is extremely stable and easy to install. It is also very scalable. Their support is also extremely good.""Morpheus is an intuitive solution that is very easy to use.""The user interface of the application is exceptional.""It supports many features, and it also supports some of the automation that Cloudify supports. So, in addition to just giving you basic platform management—such as the ability to deploy virtual machines and have multitenancy to log in and perform all of your basic platform management tasks—it also supports automation. You can, for example, spin up three virtual machines, and you can have each virtual machine configure each other. You can do service chaining with it. You can run scripts in Dash and Python, or you can use tools like Ansible, Puppet, or Chef. All of this is just built into the tool. It is a very powerful tool.""Provides a good automation platform."

"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 overall infrastructure is the most valuable part of Nutanix Cloud Clusters.""The most valuable feature is having the full features of my Nutanix on-premises applications in the cloud.""The most valuable features of Nutanix Clusters are Prism Central, Micro-segmentation, and cluster scaling automation.""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 of Nutanix Clusters is to protect the data."

Cons
"We've been facing some challenges with Morpheus due to its design for public cloud usage.""There is room for enhancement in integrating Morpheus with other solutions.""The tool could support virtual network functions better. It is really good at doing enterprise-type of things, but one of the things on which we're working with them is loading very complex virtual machines with it, such as Juniper SRX routers. It needs to support more complex virtualized resources a little bit better. Aside from that, it is a terrific tool. We really like it.""The solution's pricing and customization need to improve.""We had to put in much effort ourselves since Morpheus's support wasn't always available to help us.""The service is limited and somewhat lacking.""I faced a few problems while deploying.""The product has become overly complex. The biggest problem is that we find a bug, they fix the bug, but then another one pops up. We can never really deliver on the vision we had using Morpheus."

More Morpheus Cons →

"There are still some things that could be improved about the product.""The technical support for Nutanix Clusters could be better.""Perhaps the one thing that could be improved is the documentation around the solution.""We've had some challenges with the implementation.""The biggest weakness with Clusters at this point is that the adoption rate is low because customers don't know enough about it.""Some of the interfaces aren't as intuitive as they should be.""I'd like more flexible options to get in and out of migration modes.""The reporting has room for improvement."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Licensing is on an annual basis, and it is upfront for the year. There is no extra cost unless you want additional support or specific deployment packs."
  • "The license is based on the number of virtual machines that Morpheus is managing. So, it is a pay-as-you-grow model."
  • "Initially, the license may seem like a good deal, but as we grow, it becomes costly."
  • "The solution is cheaper if you have less number of servers, but it becomes very expensive for a large number of servers."
  • "Morpheus doesn't directly support cost optimization, but its API integration can facilitate resource optimization. It doesn't dynamically optimize resources like an aeronautic system would; it operates step by step."
  • More Morpheus Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "I am working on one configuration that is priced at $50,000 USD, whereas another one that I'm working on is estimated to cost $250,000 USD."
  • "There are positives and negatives to licensing. It all makes sense now, but it took a while. When the licenses first changed, it was a bit confusing."
  • "The solution has been more costly at this point. We do not see any cost savings."
  • "The price is high."
