Performance and availability of services need improvement

NTT Cloud needs to analyze feature offerings from AWS and Azure. Additionally, they should do marketing and be more vocal about the services. They should further ensure the availability of the services as well. I rate NTT Cloud a three out of ten. In comparison, AWS and Azure are easier to fit into the environment in terms of reliability.

Experience has improved centralized management through single console operations

There is room for improvement in how section updates are handled. The challenge lies in the difficulty of pinpointing issues when something goes wrong at a single stage. Also, each user needs deep knowledge of every aspect of virtualization, and the VMware personnel might not fully grasp aspects outside their expertise, requiring the involvement of other professionals.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The initial setup process is more accessible than one of its competitors."

"The pricing and services that surround the solution are great. For example, if we need to find a partner in a country where they do not have a cloud, they will help us find that partner. Solutions such as Amazon and Oracle do not offer this level of service."

"The solution is very stable."

"A valuable feature of VMware Cloud Foundation is its ability to manage everything from a single console, including network, virtualization, and storage management."

"The most valuable feature is the ease of migrating from on-premises infrastructure when transitioning away from older systems."

"The product enables flexibility in network structures."

"VMware Cloud Foundation provides us with the vSphere dashboard through which we can manage, monitor, schedule, and spin up your virtual machines. We can manage, monitor, and get reports of your infrastructure."

"The mission aspect of the solution is the most valuable feature."

"The main features are the separation between the management plane and the workload. You can use NSX to provision between the different areas of the network, like west-east or north-south."

"The ability to auto-scale is the most valuable feature."

Cons

"The solution could use more advanced monitoring."

"NTT Cloud’s performance could be better."

"VMware Cloud Foundation is complex, and there are always updates regarding security features, accessibility, and the user interface. Making changes isn't simple because there are a lot of tables to update. People in the field may not feel confident about managing it."

"There is room for improvement in customer service and support."

"The price could be better. VMware Cloud Foundation is overpriced, but I think we get what we pay for. It would be better if it were cheaper because it would be easier to go to customers and get them to buy it. We'd get more projects, and that would be great."

"After the acquisition, prices have been going up."

"VMware Cloud Foundation could be more flexible in terms of supporting other integration and components."

"Integrations are slightly difficult, as getting resources to deal with it is not that easy."

"They should provide integration with Azure VMware Solution."

"The tool's price tag is high."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the product’s pricing a four out of ten."

"The price of VMware Cloud Foundation is expensive."

"I rate the tool's pricing a seven out of ten."

"I give the price a three out of ten."

"VMware Cloud Foundation is expensive compared to one of its competitors."

"The pricing of VMware Cloud Foundation could improve, it is expensive."

"It is quite expensive."

"The price of VMware Cloud Foundation is a bit high. However, it comes with a lot of useful features and can handle a lot of operational complexity. Overall the price can be seen as being fair for what it offers."

"If our customer has the option to buy a server for $4,000 or $5,000, but VMware asks for two-person licensing $7,000 to $8,000, which is more than the hardware price. So sometimes, the customer cannot pay for it because it's too expensive."
