"It is very useful for the project management of our company."
"It is simple and straightforward, and it will only require you one system integrator to do the job."
"It is highly esteemed for its ability to efficiently optimize and enhance the operational speed and responsiveness of virtualized environments."
"The stability is rock solid."
"The ability to live migrate VMs on the fly from one hypervisor to another has been very useful."
"It's easy to adjust the size up and down."
"It's quite stable."
"Customers are moving to open source and Red Hat is the leader in this particular space. I think customers feel more confident running Red Hat Virtualization than VMware."
"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."
"I can control and manage everything. I know everything that's cooking inside. This is the best part for me."
"The solution makes migration easy."
"The solution is stable."
"It's a scalable solution."
"Red Hat is the most stable system."
"The only improvement needed for Oracle VM is the look and feel of the interface."
"There are issues with the solution's stability since it crashes."
"There have been some security issues in the past."
"Integration with cloud products would be beneficial."
"Oracle VM needs to add a backup feature."
"Integrating with the internal system is not very easy."
"The pricing could be cheaper. It is very pricey."
"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."
"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 UI should be more interactive with additional features."
"Red Hat by itself is not scalable. But you can have third party add-ons like Ceph to make it massively scalable."
"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."
"Configuring the network interfaces is much better in Ubuntu and should be improved."
"This solution could be more secure."
"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."
