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."The biggest advantage of Oracle VM is that you can separate your clusters to get your licenses agreement in scope."
"The virtualization product Oracle puts out just complements the performance of the database."
"The ability to live migrate VMs on the fly from one hypervisor to another has been very useful."
"VMware is user-friendly, with clear integration and detailed migration."
"It's not a very expensive product."
"I rate Oracle VM's scalability a ten out of ten."
"The solution is very stable. I don't recall any bugs or glitches. It's reliable. It doesn't crash or freeze."
"The product's initial setup phase was simple."
"I can control and manage everything. I know everything that's cooking inside. This is the best part for me."
"What they provide is way beyond the essential requirements of customers."
"This solution is very stable. Much more so than similar products."
"The solution is stable."
"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."
"The solution is a great all-round product. The virtualization is especially good."
"The most valuable feature of Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization is its pricing."
"We find the ease of use of this solution to be invaluable. It is user-friendly and integrates well with other software."
"The performance could be better because I need to purchase a lot of CPUs to perform in the workbench."
"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 automatic start of the product to work as a background process has shortcomings and needs improvement."
"The solution is at its end of life and is about to be discontinued."
"I think more Command-Line options for the product, for deployments."
"You need to have a model for documentation available for the users. Right now, if you have to search for some troubleshooting, you need to have Oracle login. Many personnel might not have that login. The reach, the availability of information to the end-user, is not there."
"There have been some security issues in the past."
"The pricing could be cheaper. It is very pricey."
"We would like the dashboard feature of this solution to be improved, as it is not very detailed at present."
"The UI should be more interactive with additional features."
"There is not any proper documentation on the site to reference."
"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."
"With RHEV, the cyberattacks should be fewer. I want RHEV to be better protected."
"The solution could use network virtualization."
"We'd like it if it would be possible on Red Hat Virtualization to possibly connect two or three VMs to the same disk."
"Customers are not aware of this solution, they can improve by providing more awareness and solution availability."
