Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"In terms of dealing with our business-critical workloads, Nutanix is a highly scalable, highly resilient, and very high-performing solution.""The overall infrastructure is the most valuable part of Nutanix Cloud Clusters.""The solution can scale well.""I've been very pleased with their support overall.""The most valuable feature of Nutanix Clusters is to protect the data.""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 scalability is good."

More Nutanix Cloud Clusters (NC2) Pros →

"The solution is stable and we have never had a problem. We started with one terabyte of data when the solution was first implemented and today we have around almost 600 gigabytes of data, which means means the compression works properly. Before migrating from ECC, we had nine terabytes of data.""I am impressed with how the solution integrates with the ME system and ALE IDocs.""The processes and the way we take advantage and use assistance are good.""The most valuable feature is virtual modeling, which is beneficial because you don't really save the data multiple times the way we did in the past.""The solution does provide quite a lot of support, upgrades, automated batch updates, etc.""There's a minimum amount of downtime when using the solution. This platform is very effective.""It is a scalable solution if you have a good cloud infrastructure.""Traditionally, SAP worked with Oracle databases, but SAP is getting rid of the other databases and promoting its own. SAP will stop support for other databases around 2026, so everyone is moving to SAP S/4HANA for the performance and because it's the preferred database for SAP. S/4HANA has new features from the front-end or application feature perspective. The idea is to move toward future-ready technology."

Cons
"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.""The pricing can be better.""The reporting has room for improvement.""The technical support for Nutanix Clusters could be better.""I'd like more flexible options to get in and out of migration modes.""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."

More Nutanix Cloud Clusters (NC2) Cons →

"The main thing is that SAP needs to give better response times for support tickets.""The only thing that could be improved is the cost.""Our data centers are in Europe and come under GDPR regulations, and this doesn't apply to the Middle East yet. It causes a lot of confusion.""The customer has a lot of dependencies on SAP which means they don't have much flexibility to go and update the system when or if they need to. They will need to wait for the quarterly updates. It's possible to maybe raise a special request with SAP if it is absolutely necessary.""The solution needs to embed or integrate with IBP to fully activate the PPT module with efficiency.""Perhaps minor changes to the enterprise structure could be made, but the rest is fine.""SAP support isn't on par with products like Microsoft Azure or AWS. It's nowhere close to the competitors.""They should probably offer more cloud services. Most of the cloud infrastructure providers we have make everything pretty transparent, you know what you're getting, you have all these metrics and measurements and everything in the dashboard. Here you have to go through the contracting negotiations and all those things."

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."
  • More Nutanix Cloud Clusters (NC2) Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "If you choose the minimum, it will probably cost around $1,000 USD per month if you take a contract for a year or two."
  • "The licensing of the solution is on a yearly basis. The normal price of the solution is quite high, but I received a special discount by making a purchase near the end of the year."
  • "The solution could be less expensive."
  • "The price is expensive compared to the competition."
  • "The price is high compared to other databases, which is why HANA is still not widely used. Some enterprises prefer Sybase, Oracle, or other traditional databases because HANA is a little pricey. Cost is one factor SAP needs to work on to make it more competitive with other databases. Otherwise, they'll never be able to develop a mass customer base."
  • "Our pricing is based on a yearly contract."
  • "The pricing is reasonable when compared to other vendors like Oracle who offer technology enterprise resource software."
  • "The product itself is relatively expensive."
