Zack Baraci - PeerSpot reviewer
High availability and user-friendly interface enhance manageability
I primarily use the core features of Nutanix AHV Virtualization ( /products/nutanix-ahv-virtualization-reviews ) at the moment. The high availability (HA), replication, and site-to-site replication are quite useful. Additionally, the usual hypervisor management functionalities are beneficial. Nutanix AHV Virtualization delivers a system that is very manageable, with a well-designed user interface. It is easier to manage than VMware in some ways, providing a good level of interaction.
Ramon Ruiz - PeerSpot reviewer
Significant backup for containers, but the customer service is terrible
Anyone considering this solution should not compare it to the old versions. They should be a partner with Virtuozzo and run all the certifications. Also, they need a good lab to understand the technology and how they can apply that technology conveniently. This is very commercial software. It does not have support, so you will need to be hands-on. I would rate Odin Virtuozzo a six out of 10 overall.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The storage features and volume system are great."
"This product stands out for its user-friendly interface, intuitive design, and responsive UI. It offers AVH features comparable to Nutanix but at a more cost-effective price point."
"The dashboard of the solution is one of its strongest points."
"You don't need any other instruments for control, AHV. You only need to look at the prism to control all infrastructure."
"For our markets here in Morocco, we are mainly working with server virtualization, and the most valuable feature is the software-defined storage and hyper-converged infrastructure."
"Nutanix is good for new implementations on the VM side. It's very good for disaster recovery and final storage."
"The most valuable part of Nutanix is its centralized management of everything."
"Integration is the most valuable feature of the product."
"When you run templates on the containers on Virtuozzo they have a lot of back-ups."
 

Cons

"The licensing costs are a little bit expensive."
"The integration capabilities of Nutanix AHV Virtualization is an area with certain shortcomings that need improvement."
"When we need to share, publish, or encrypt something, we still need to perform it using the command line."

"Nutanix AHV Virtualization's price is very high."
"I must change the memory cards in at least two to three weeks."
"Odin Virtuozzo has poor support and needs to improve."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is costly and comes with an annual subscription."
"The solution’s pricing is relatively fair."
"When comparing this solution to others on the market, such as VMware and Citrix, the price could be reduced."
"Nutanix AHV is low cost."
"The setup cost for four nodes was about $200,000 (in US currency)."

"The solution's pricing is cheap for a new customer but becomes expensive during renewal."
"The license for Odin Virtuozzo is based on consumption on demand."
