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."It's a very flexible solution because you have all the commands that you can do yourself."
"I don't need to create a repository to allocate storage to my virtual machine, rather I can just use store locally."
"The stability of the product is fine."
"The product's initial setup phase was simple."
"The stability is rock solid."
"The virtualization product Oracle puts out just complements the performance of the database."
"Virtualization platform that's easy to set up, and has good scalability and stability."
"VMware is user-friendly, with clear integration and detailed migration."
"The solution is overall very good with all the facilities. It is user friendly, easy to configure, has documentation, and support is available."
"Red Hat is the most stable system."
"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 has a good licensing module."
"What they provide is way beyond the essential requirements of customers."
"The solution is a great all-round product. The virtualization is especially good."
"Technically, the main reason why I'm using Red Hat is because of its stability."
"There aren't any bugs on the solution."
"Oracle VM should be more feature-rich."
"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."
"We do have a little trepidation with systemd, as it does have a learning curve."
"It was a complex setup. It was very difficult for me."
"The tool's price and stability could be better."
"Productivity in Oracle VM could still be improved, and an additional feature to make the product better is compatibility with Kubernetes and other modern technologies."
"The pricing could be cheaper. It is very pricey."
"Incorporating analytics related to performance, particularly within the dashboard interface, would be beneficial."
"When we do a direct comparison, then obviously VMware does better in terms of having Fault Tolerance and doing active disaster recovery and these kind of things. This is something that can be improved within Red Hat."
"While everything needs improvement in some way, I have no specifics."
"It lags behind in that you need to go to something like Fedora to get all the extra bells and whistles."
"Customers are not aware of this solution, they can improve by providing more awareness and solution availability."
"The solution should be made more user-friendly."
"This solution could be more secure."
"In comparison to VMware, this solution isn't as stable. We're testing it right now, and we're not trusting the stability of the product."
"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."
