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 don't need to create a repository to allocate storage to my virtual machine, rather I can just use store locally."
"It's not a very expensive product."
"What I like the most is the failover and the quick restore of virtual machines."
"It is a scalable solution."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The network capabilities are good."
"The ability to live migrate VMs on the fly from one hypervisor to another has been very useful."
"It is highly esteemed for its ability to efficiently optimize and enhance the operational speed and responsiveness of virtualized environments."
"The solution makes migration easy."
"It is a scalable solution."
"What they provide is way beyond the essential requirements of customers."
"It's a scalable solution."
"The solution has a good licensing module."
"One of the most valuable features of this solution is the popularity of the OS."
"RHEV’s cost is much less compared to VMware."
"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"There are currently issues with centralized storage."
"There are issues with the solution's stability since it crashes."
"Incorporating analytics related to performance, particularly within the dashboard interface, would be beneficial."
"Oracle VM should have centralized storage, without which you can't clone or move one VM to another."
"The solution is an outdated Xen-based application."
"Something that could be improved are the snapshots that go in the ZFS Storage. If you want to enjoy Oracle VM, you will definitely want it to go together with ZFS Storage to maximize on the snapshot facility."
"Integration capabilities are a little complicated. It could be made easier. Whether integrating with Azure or other platforms or integration with OIC itself, the integration part is a little complicated."
"There is no memory over-subscription and CPU over-subscription. That has to be improved in terms of Oracle VM perspective. The other leading virtualizing software solutions have this feature."
"The support is tricky in a few places. We're facing some challenges within Malaysia where we don't really have the system integrators available who can provide extended support. When we need personnel on-site, we can't get them."
"It lags behind in that you need to go to something like Fedora to get all the extra bells and whistles."
"RHEV can improve by keeping pace with new features and new enhancements. They should not be halted or delayed innovation because over the past quarter the enhancements have not been as fast as they have been previously."
"A few features of the product do not work as well as those in VMware."
"We would like the dashboard feature of this solution to be improved, as it is not very detailed at present."
"With RHEV, the cyberattacks should be fewer. I want RHEV to be better protected."
"The Administration of the Oracle database and the SAP ERP needs improvement."
"The UI should be more interactive with additional features."
