We performed a comparison between Microsoft Azure and Nutanix Cloud Clusters (NC2) based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Infrastructure as a Service Clouds (IaaS) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I have found Microsoft Azure to be stable. We have large corporate customers and it is working great."
"Azure is stable. I don't have any problems with it."
"Virtual machine services, in SaaS services, M365, and Data Lake are all popular with our clients."
"The integration with Databricks is the most valuable aspect of the solution."
"The most valuable features of this solution are the value for money and flexibility."
"The solution is very simple to use. It has a lot of great practical applications we really appreciate."
"The solution has given us more agility, scalability and opportunity to optimize the cost."
"The system is more secure, and this is valuable."
"The most valuable feature of Nutanix Clusters is to protect the data."
"I've been very pleased with their support overall."
"The scalability is good."
"In terms of dealing with our business-critical workloads, Nutanix is a highly scalable, highly resilient, and very high-performing solution."
"The solution can scale well."
"Having a single pane of glass where you can have both your on-prem and anything else that you spin up within AWS is useful."
"The most valuable features of Nutanix Clusters are Prism Central, Micro-segmentation, and cluster scaling automation."
"The most valuable feature is having the full features of my Nutanix on-premises applications in the cloud."
"They can improve the number of requests. Maybe they can increase it from 5,000 requests to 10,000 requests a month. Sometimes when you try to connect, it is quite unresponsive. When you want to communicate using the API, you get an internal error."
"Predictability and quality. Make sure things work predictable, as expected, and documented."
"One key area for improvement is the Azure load balancer. Currently, it only supports virtual machines (VMs) running in the same virtual network (vNet) on the backend. They should definitely support machines or IPs running on-premises (prem) or in other Azure VNets. GCP and AWS already support that. So, Azure Load Balancer should support that as well"
"It would be beneficial if Microsoft could enhance the free version to allow for more exploration and development. That's my only suggestion regarding Azure."
"It would be nice if there was an on-premises version of the solution, and it wasn't just cloud-based."
"The support subscription models need improvement."
"It should have cost optimization tools. Customers are required to use third-party applications to avoid usage complications."
"I would like to see more databases on the cloud, what they call today Big Data should be there."
"We've had some challenges with the implementation."
"The biggest weakness with Clusters at this point is that the adoption rate is low because customers don't know enough about it."
"Perhaps the one thing that could be improved is the documentation around the solution."
"There are still some things that could be improved about the product."
"The reporting has room for improvement."
"The technical support for Nutanix Clusters could be better."
"Some of the interfaces aren't as intuitive as they should be."
"The pricing can be better."
