"The biggest advantage of Oracle VM is that you can separate your clusters to get your licenses agreement in scope."
"The support staff in the tech support team at Oracle has improved. I find them extremely helpful and they give very solid support."
"Oracle VM is user-friendly and facilitates compliance with Oracle Licensing, a feature not provided by competitors like VMware or Hyper-V. Oracle prefers customers to use their technology. It is also easy to implement, clone, and deploy machines with Oracle VM, making it a convenient solution."
"What I like best about this product is that it's free."
"The solution is easy to use. You can spin one up when you need to and then shut it down."
"Virtualization platform that's easy to set up, and has good scalability and stability."
"It's a very mature product."
"It is easy to deal with when comes to application migration and its compatibility with the multiple component applications."
"We find the ease of use of this solution to be invaluable. It is user-friendly and integrates well with other software."
"I can control and manage everything. I know everything that's cooking inside. This is the best part for me."
"It's a scalable solution."
"The solution is stable."
"The initial setup is fairly straightforward and well-documented. The process is very similar to its competitors. The success of your setup depends on how well you plan."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the support portal."

"Oracle VM could provide integration with backup solutions."
"Incorporating analytics related to performance, particularly within the dashboard interface, would be beneficial."
"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."
"Oracle VM needs to add a backup feature."
"Integrating with the internal system is not very easy."
"If you do a gap analysis between VMware and Oracle VM, you can't do VM Snapshot. That's one thing you can't do. It's a sort of a snapshot, but it's not really Snapshot technology. It requires that you're running on CFS-2."
"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."
"There are currently issues with centralized storage."
"Red Hat by itself is not scalable. But you can have third party add-ons like Ceph to make it massively scalable."
"The solution should be made more user-friendly."
"While everything needs improvement in some way, I have no specifics."
