VMware NSX Reviews

I have worked on NSX for the last couple of months and I Liked Distributed Logical Switching, Distributed Logical Router and Distributed Firewall the most.

We have deployed it in a virtual environment and it saved a lot of time and effort for us to configure.

Speed of the NSX Controllers while deploying sometimes gets a bit slower which can be improved, overall its a great product

Last few months.

No.

We are a Partner and we have deployed it for our customer.

Our primary use case is to change from Cisco.

• It is scalable.
• The microsegmentation is a good feature. You can segment details, products, or hardware information.

It is stable.

It is scalable.

We haven't used technical support.

The first time setting it up was difficult. After a couple of installations, it should get easier.

We set it up with a partner.

NSX is a good product.

Our customers need load balance and firewalls with advanced NSX. They are really happy to use NSX.

It's free for our customers. It benefits them in that way and it benefits us because it makes our customers happy.

The most valuable features would be VPN and PCM. 

I use L7 balancing. I can use it for two tethers and I can see the source IP. I can split for monitoring for me and my analyst.

I would like to see extended performance charts in other versions of NSX. For example, CPU usage, memory usage, and bandwidth usage on NSX.

I would rate this product an eight because it's a good product but it needs more work. They should fix some of the bugs.

NSX is very stable. I don't remember when I have ever had any trouble with NSX. It's been a great process.

The scalability is not perfect. 

We use technical support but not for NSX. We don't have any trouble from NSX and we, therefore, don't need technical support.

I found the initial setup to be complex. 

NSX can reduce costs and has good service. It is easy for you and your users to use. 

We have integrated this solution with vCloud Director. Without NSX you can't deploy the cloud.

• Deployment
• Planning and designing
• Troubleshooting sustain.

• Faster delivery of VMs
• Providing NAT
• Firewall rules
• Balance
• Connectivity between physical and virtual environments.

Visibility, because on our environment, it's impossible mapping end to end, and we don't have any tools that provide this integration.

• vRNI
• Improve integration with many third-party solutions, because only Palo Alto and Check Point, and VMware would be like improve this integration with other vendors.

We use this solution in our private clouds networking environment. We have some subsidiaries that we service and are trying to isolate each of them in this network.

It has helped us prolong our hardware research. We haven't had to change hardware in five years.

Security and cloud readiness are the most valuable features for us. We're interested in looking into microsegmentation. 

I would like to see some more add-ons on the security features. 

It's very stable and robust. We haven't had any issues with it. 

Scalability is a great feature. 

Their technical support is very good. They help us figure out solutions when we have problems. 

The initial setup was straightforward. 

We integrated in-house. 

I would rate this solution a nine because we maximize most of its features. We have many advantages with the cloud infrastructure. I would tell someone looking into this solution to go for it. At first, it may seem to be complex but using it will make it easier to manage jobs. Yes, its initial establishment can be complex but you will see its advantages later on.
