Find out what your peers are saying about VMware, IBM, Nutanix and others in Virtualization Management Tools."My experience with the solution's technical support was perfect. They are so knowledgeable, all of them. They don't take any chances."
"The most valuable feature is that everything is integrated for monitoring, performance, and troubleshooting."
"One of the most valuable features is the ability to compare between AWS/Azure and the local cloud. When customers deploy something on the local cloud, with the same configuration that would apply to AWS or Azure, we can calculate the estimated cost difference between the local cloud and the public cloud. We do this kind of analysis for optimization and it is one of the best features of vROps."
"The solution gives suggestions regarding whether resources are underutilized or overutilized."
"The most valuable features of the solution are the effectiveness of hardware availability and flexibility."
"The most valuable feature is the insight into how our infrastructure is actually working and the kind of performance that when users either say there is an issue, it gives some insight into finding out what's going wrong with it. I think its cause we have it mainly based on our production units."
"I think vROps is scalable and suitable for our environment."
"The newer version is a lot easier to use than the older version. It's one of the easiest ways to obtain some insight into vCenter."
"I like that it's integrated with the other suite of tools. That's a big plus for the tool. It's well-integrated with Log Insight. We use that integration quite a bit."
"When something breaks, it's not easy for us to fix. I'm running a banking solution at my company and when there's a problem, I need to be proactive and quick to resolve the problem immediately."
"Lately, the chargeback site has improved, but it could be simpler. You need to create your own dashboards. It should be simple to get a virtual machine and break down the compute and storage costs."
"The integration points can use improvement. We currently use a lot of third-party management packs to get insights for SQL, HP or Dell EMC. If we could have more integration built in as a standard feature that would make it slightly better."
"I would like to see more functionality. I would also like to see better support, because the pack that we use, the Horizon, it's an additional pack. It's not currently actually built by VMware, it's built by a separate company. When they merge the two, there will be better support in the future."
"I'd like to see more out-of-the-box dashboards and less customizing of the environment. The interface could be more streamlined. There are still a lot of old dashboards versus the new UI dashboards."
"I would like to see more features, especially in the way of Flash to HTML5."
"I want vROps to have wider compatibility with older hardware. In this country, many companies have older hardware, so sometimes we can't support all the newest features."
"We would like to have monitoring for containers."
"When we first bought it, our vision was to use role-based access, give application teams access to view a dashboard for their stuff. We found out that the vROps tool can't handle more than about 20 concurrent sessions... We have some 3000 applications."
