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."It is a scalable solution."
"It's not a very expensive product."
"What I like best about this product is that it's free."
"It's a very flexible solution because you have all the commands that you can do yourself."
"The cloning is a great feature and live migration is very easy."
"What I like the most is the failover and the quick restore of virtual machines."
"Its technical support is quite good."
"I don't need to create a repository to allocate storage to my virtual machine, rather I can just use store locally."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the support portal."
"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"The solution is stable."
"The solution is overall very good with all the facilities. It is user friendly, easy to configure, has documentation, and support is available."
"The most valuable features of RHEV are all the tools, such as virtualization, management of cloud platforms, and integration of container environments. The solution has good compatibility between virtualization, content management, and cloud management. Having the full set of these tools is the advantage of it."
"There aren't any bugs on the solution."
"Stability and speed are the most valuable aspects."
"Technically, the main reason why I'm using Red Hat is because of its stability."
"The only improvement needed for Oracle VM is the look and feel of the interface."
"Oracle VM needs to add a backup feature."
"Integration with cloud products would be beneficial."
"It doesn't monitor everything, which is a little bit more difficult. It doesn't seem to have as many features or metrics to monitor as some others do, so you have to make some homemade scripts to do it."
"The documentation for implementation could be improved because we were not able to find an easy way to implement our company's features due to a lack of understanding."
"The solution needs more features and flexibility in terms of communicating with other platforms. If it had that, it would be the perfect product."
"Deployment should be simplified."
"The configuration can be more flexible. It is a necessity."
"I heard that there are big differences between Red Hat eight and seven, but it's still quite difficult for me to judge it. I found it a bit more difficult to manage than version seven, which was much easier. In term of features, though, it is still not yet clear which is better. I have no clear idea of which features need to be changed at the moment."
"The biggest improvement would be more third-party direct support for things like backups and provisioning through third-party portals."
"Configuring the network interfaces is much better in Ubuntu and should be improved."
"The UI should be more interactive with additional features."
"It would be better to have more patches, especially kernel-level updates, live and online so that we can keep the business up and running during this period."
"We hope that Red Hat can produce a paradigm edition. We are looking for paradigm computing and paradigm storage. Its scalability can be improved. It is not easy to scale, and we hope that Red Hat can provide a more scalable system. They should also provide local service and support. Our customers are looking for a good software vendor to provide professional services."
"The Administration of the Oracle database and the SAP ERP needs improvement."
"A few features of the product do not work as well as those in VMware."
