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."Cloning is the best feature in Oracle VM."
"Virtualization platform that's easy to set up, and has good scalability and stability."
"I rate Oracle VM's scalability a ten out of ten."
"The most valuable aspect of the solution is the resource management from the OVM Manager."
"The biggest advantage of Oracle VM is that you can separate your clusters to get your licenses agreement in scope."
"It is a scalable solution."
"Ability to patch with no downtime."
"The Foundation is the most valuable feature of Oracle VM."
"It's a scalable solution."
"There aren't any bugs on the solution."
"We find the ease of use of this solution to be invaluable. It is user-friendly and integrates well with other software."
"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"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."
"One of the most valuable features of this solution is the popularity of the OS."
"Technically, the main reason why I'm using Red Hat is because of its stability."
"Stability and speed are the most valuable aspects."
"Integration with cloud products would be beneficial."
"The pricing could be cheaper. It is very pricey."
"Oracle VM could provide integration with backup solutions."
"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."
"This solution is not as stable as other solutions in the market. But, Oracle has made an effort to improve these issues with recent updates."
"Incorporating analytics related to performance, particularly within the dashboard interface, would be beneficial."
"The performance could be better because I need to purchase a lot of CPUs to perform in the workbench."
"If there are issues with the storage, then all the machines go down, even if I have a backup solution in place."
"It lags behind in that you need to go to something like Fedora to get all the extra bells and whistles."
"We'd like it if it would be possible on Red Hat Virtualization to possibly connect two or three VMs to the same disk."
"A few features of the product do not work as well as those in VMware."
"This solution could be more secure."
"We would like the dashboard feature of this solution to be improved, as it is not very detailed at present."
"Configuring the network interfaces is much better in Ubuntu and should be improved."
"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."
"There is not any proper documentation on the site to reference."
