We performed a comparison between Oracle VM and RHEV based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Server Virtualization Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I rate Oracle VM's scalability a ten out of ten."
"Oracle is probably the best database technology out there. I've never found anything as complete in terms of feature and functionality and sophistication."
"It is a scalable solution."
"It's quite stable."
"It's a very mature product."
"The biggest advantage of Oracle VM is that you can separate your clusters to get your licenses agreement in scope."
"I like Oracle VM's vMotion and cloning features."
"VMware is user-friendly, with clear integration and detailed migration."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the support portal."
"The solution is stable."
"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"It's a scalable solution."
"There aren't any bugs on the solution."
"It is very stable."
"What they provide is way beyond the essential requirements of customers."
"It is easy to deal with when comes to application migration and its compatibility with the multiple component applications."
"The management can be improved more, and become more agile. It would be nice for it to become more rich in terms of UI. In addition, the replication to disaster recovery needs improvement."
"The usage could be easier, and more user-friendly."
"Integration with cloud products would be beneficial."
"The only improvement needed for Oracle VM is the look and feel of the interface."
"I would say third-party plugins to other storage vendors. There are a lot of converged infrastructure setups; one that we have, multiple different hardware vendors. So that would be something we could definitely be looking for."
"It was a complex setup. It was very difficult for me."
"The user interface of the version that we have requires improvement. They have already improved the user interface in the latest version, but we are yet to migrate to that. The new UI is much better. I would like it to be simple. It is serving all of our needs, and I don't think it is necessary to keep adding. We are able to provision a VM in ten minutes, and provisioning it in five minutes will not have any added benefit."
"One is the hypervisor. Right now, it’s all using Xen. What would be really helpful is to have some choice, and the underlying hypervisor technology use KVM which is very popular with certain workloads."
"The biggest improvement would be more third-party direct support for things like backups and provisioning through third-party portals."
"We would like the dashboard feature of this solution to be improved, as it is not very detailed at present."
"Configuring the network interfaces is much better in Ubuntu and should be improved."
"The availability of technical expertise with the solution may be limited in some areas."
"The solution has a very small lifecycle."
"While everything needs improvement in some way, I have no specifics."
"The solution should be made more user-friendly."
"The documentation is not as good as it should be."
