KVM pros and cons

If you prefer command-line, there are all kinds of command-line options.

The GUI interface makes the management of KVM easier than ever before.

I like that it's easy to manage. It's also more powerful when it comes to security than others. That point of view is the one consideration. The other consideration is that it's cost-effective.

Very cost-effective.

This solution is open source and easy to configure.

KVM is stable.

It is easy to use, stable, and flexible. It is a pretty mature product, and it is faster than VirtualBox.

Good screen and keyboard sharing feature.

One thing that maybe could be improved is making it easier to scale. It needs to be more clear on how to scale the storage space for virtual machines.

Business continuity features need to be added.

Technical support could be better. In the next release, I would like to see an improved user interface and dashboard. This type of improvement will make it easy or help our engineers understand the solution from a requirement point of view.

Lacks high availability across clusters as well as support for Apache CloudStack.

There are some issues with the graphics and some software that is very complex.

In our setup, we do not have any dashboards or orchestration, and it is hard to manage. We have 25 gig network cards, but the software driver we have only supported 10 gigs.

Its resource usage can be improved.

Monitoring and resolution could be improved.
