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."The biggest advantage of Oracle VM is that you can separate your clusters to get your licenses agreement in scope."
"The network capabilities are good."
"VMware is user-friendly, with clear integration and detailed migration."
"Virtualization platform that's easy to set up, and has good scalability and stability."
"It's not a very expensive product."
"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."
"Cloning is the best feature in Oracle VM."
"The product is simple and easy to use."
"Red Hat is the most stable system."
"This solution is very stable. Much more so than similar products."
"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"The solution is stable."
"Technically, the main reason why I'm using Red Hat is because of its stability."
"The solution makes migration easy."
"RHEV’s cost is much less compared to VMware."
"The solution is a great all-round product. The virtualization is especially good."
"The solution is an outdated Xen-based application."
"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 solution is at its end of life and is about to be discontinued."
"It was a complex setup. It was very difficult for me."
"There have been some security issues in the past."
"There are issues with the solution's stability since it crashes."
"Oracle VM could provide integration with backup solutions."
"Oracle VM should be more feature-rich."
"The documentation is not as good as it should be."
"It lags behind in that you need to go to something like Fedora to get all the extra bells and whistles."
"The biggest improvement would be more third-party direct support for things like backups and provisioning through third-party portals."
"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 solution should be made more user-friendly."
"We hope that Red Hat can produce a paradigm edition. We are looking for paradigm computing and paradigm storage. Its scalability can be improved. It is not easy to scale, and we hope that Red Hat can provide a more scalable system. They should also provide local service and support. Our customers are looking for a good software vendor to provide professional services."
"We'd like it if it would be possible on Red Hat Virtualization to possibly connect two or three VMs to the same disk."
