I use the solution in my company as it is very useful in virtualizing every physical environment that our company has. In our company, we enhanced the resources, and with less costs, we could have a single point of governance. The tool was really helpful for our company's environment.
There are some update-related issues with the product. The tool's updates are released on time, so there was continuous improvement from vCenter's end. The product also has an extended community and forums with questions and answers.
I have experience with vCenter Orchestrator since 2016.
The stability of the product is very good. My company had more issues when we used to deal with everything physical in our environment.
It is a scalable solution. If you have open hardware, you can have more hooks and make it more scalable.
In my company, we have around 20 users of the tool in each environment, considering that we have several environments in the organization. For VDI, my company has around 500 users because we add engineers and end users from every plant of our organization. Overall, there are around 500 end users for a single VDI environment.
I did not face many challenges during the setup phase of the tool because my usage was more as an end user than that of a technical user.
For deployment and maintenance, my company currently has a team of three people from industrial computing and four people from hosting, making it a team of seven people for our whole region.
The solution is deployed on an on-premises model.
My company needs to make yearly payments towards the licensing costs attached to the product.
For automation, I did not evaluate other products available in the market. For locations in the Asia Pacific region, I would prefer Ansible, but I am not familiar with it.
In my company's IT environment, we use the tool to deploy production environments for products, including live manufacturing systems.
The product improves my company's IT automation processes since we can use fewer resources currently. In my company, we need to spend less time considering that vCenter Orchestrator monitors everything. In general, we don't have to be present in our company to do active monitoring. Automatic monitoring is available for everything with vCenter Orchestrator, so we have proactive alerts in our company.
The most valuable feature of the product in streamlining our company's workflow stems from the fact that we need to spend fewer resources and less time in general. Our company can spend time on more effective tasks like working with the plans to improve processes and so on, instead of taking care of the systems.
The benefits of the product's integration capabilities were useful for HPE. My company has HPE infrastructure, and we are keen to integrate everything into the host, VMware ESXi. It is really important to have an easy integration method that allows for everything to be installed easily in a matter of minutes.
I was not involved in the product's setup process. My colleague took care of the product's setup process. From what I know, I can say that the product's setup phase was straightforward. Some custom setups were to be done manually in the tool, but everything was well documented.
I recommend the product to those who plan to use it.
One of the benefits of the product is that it is a low-cost and stable solution that offers a lot of resources.
I rate the overall tool a nine out of ten.
