Find out what your peers are saying about VMware, IBM, Nutanix and others in Virtualization Management Tools."The product is stable and easy to set up. It provides minimum false alarms."
"The main point of installing, deploying, and troubleshooting with vRealize Operations is to provide visual dashboards to ensure that the entire workload is functioning properly."
"With this solution, we are able to see where problems are happening quickly and improve turnaround time, which matters to us."
"This solution has improved my organization by claiming back resources that have been wasted on applications or on servers that just didn't need them. Having a tool that shows that information on a pretty regular basis has been very helpful."
"I have found the backup extremely useful in my use cases."
"If you use the vCenter stuff, it's okay... but vROps actually gives you more realistic numbers."
"The most valuable feature is all the metrics we get. They're really good. Being able to drill down and find out where the CPU and memory bottlenecks are and being able to tune them is really helpful."
"I like the dashboards. We can view in our service groups before something in our service goes wrong and causes issues."
"It helps an organization quickly create test and dev environments for developers to come up with new software and patch tests."
"Quest Foglight for Virtualization's integration needs enhancement."
"I rated this solution a nine because I haven't had any issues with it and it has been intuitive and easy to use. I don't know it well enough to give it a ten."
"A lot of feedback that we're getting from some of our engineers who are actually using Operations today is that the graphics are very low-key. When it comes to red, yellow, green, yes, "Skittles Theory," but when it actually comes down to what's optimized and what's not optimized, it's very rudimentary. If they could actually make nicer pie charts or graphics involved in it, it would make it a lot easier to read the data on a higher level, rather than actually having to dive down and know specifically what you're looking at."
"The whole interface is like an information overload, it just bombards me with messages, warnings, and alerts. When I follow through on the majority of these messages, I realize that I'm really just wasting time because they're not really real problems."
"Technical support is normally good but there is sometimes a delay in their response."
"At first, it was not so user-friendly because there was so much information that we were lost."
"vROps is, by its nature, a very complex product."
"It would be good to have more detailed reports and more details on the dashboard."
"In the past, when we have raised priority one tickets and they have sent us level one engineers. This wasted time because the L1 was only able to perform the troubleshooting steps that we had already completed."
