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 like Oracle VM's vMotion and cloning features."
"The product is simple and easy to use."
"The stability of the product is fine."
"It is simple and straightforward, and it will only require you one system integrator to do the job."
"Good visualization hypervisor."
"The stability is rock solid."
"It is highly esteemed for its ability to efficiently optimize and enhance the operational speed and responsiveness of virtualized environments."
"The solution is easy to use. You can spin one up when you need to and then shut it down."
"One of the most valuable features of this solution is the popularity of the OS."
"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."
"Red Hat is the most stable system."
"It is a scalable solution."
"The most valuable feature of Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization is its pricing."
"The solution is overall very good with all the facilities. It is user friendly, easy to configure, has documentation, and support is available."
"The price is the solution's most valuable aspect. It's much cheaper than, for example, VMware."
"The solution is a great all-round product. The virtualization is especially good."
"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."
"Its database management features could be better."
"Oracle's VM VirtualBox is a powerful, free, and open-source virtualization tool. However, you'll have to read a lot of documents and perform experiments in test environments to make it work for you."
"Integration with cloud products would be beneficial."
"The usage could be easier, and more user-friendly."
"Oracle VM could provide integration with backup solutions."
"The automatic start of the product to work as a background process has shortcomings and needs improvement."
"I would like to be able to ship all of our logs. This feature could exist and I am just not aware of it."
"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."
"The solution could use network virtualization."
"Configuring the network interfaces is much better in Ubuntu and should be improved."
"We would like the dashboard feature of this solution to be improved, as it is not very detailed at present."
"The documentation is not as good as it should be."
"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."
"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."
