"The most valuable features of the vCloud Director are global management, added services, and automation."

"The initial installation and setup are very quick."
"The stability is rock solid."
"Technical support is an area that can be improved."
"There is a problem with integration due to invalid private node security certificates."
"Technical support is something that we've had problems with in the past. Across all the VMware solutions we have not always had the best response from support. To be fair a lot of the issues that came up for us have been quite niche but it seems that in terms of release cycles they introduced a lot of bugs and it's a lot of stuff that support generally has to work quite hard on. There have been cases when we've logged critical priority issues and not had responses in time. I think support is something that can be worked on."
"The product could use a billing feature so we can automate billing for clients."
"The solution's installation is difficult, and you need somebody with the solution's knowledge to do the installation."
"It would be great if Microsoft and VMware come together and become a common tool."
"If you use it for a lot of customers, it is too heavy for this solution."
"Initially, the setup was complex."
"The solution should integrate with other cloud systems such as Azure ARC and OpenStack."
"Technical support needs to improve its skills and respond to queries faster."
