We performed a comparison between Veeam ONE and VMware vSphere based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about VMware, IBM, Nutanix and others in Virtualization Management Tools."One valuable feature of Veeam ONE for backup management is its dashboard, which offers a comprehensive view of backups and other essential data."
"The installation is pretty straightforward."
"The solution's customer service is good."
"Setting up Veeam is easy, and it's portable, too."
"Storage gateway feature is very flexible."
"The solution is carefully designed to be easy to use - even if you're in a panic."
"Veeam ONE is the best and the most mature solution for hypervisors and physical machines."
"The solution is stable."
"The performance is efficient."
"The provisioning setup of VMs is good."
"Vmware vSphere is the benchmark of the visualization market."
"The ability to create or clone a virtual environment in a short period of time for testing is most valuable."
"There is the simplicity of management, accessibility, and availability."
"The most valuable features for us are DRS, VMotion, and, of course, some of the analytics that we were able to define to quantify our workloads and tell us how we are able to make our data center more efficient."
"vMotion radically changes the way we think about how we can operate a large infrastructure, and notably, in terms of proactive maintenance."
"The stability of VMware vSphere is very good. It has high resiliency, it is one of the best solutions on the market."
"It would be better if the solution presented the number of servers and the success rate on the dashboard."
"It would be great if Veeam ONE had a business hour reporting feature because sometimes a client would want to know what workers do during business hours and outside of business hours. This type of report will give you the added benefit when you're scaling up and scaling down in the cloud, for example, if I wanted to swap hot and cold storage during specific hours to save on cost. Business hour reporting in Veeam ONE will give you a lot of benefits and added value. Scalability needs to be improved in the solution."
"There is a lot of information, so maybe the dashboards could consolidate it."
"Creating reports is a bit difficult, and you have to spend some time on it."
"There is a bug that prevents enabling the restore button, which is hectic."
"Its reporting feature could be better."
"I would like the solution to have better integration with other hypervisors and cloud features that are not exclusive to VMware."
"In future releases, I would like to see more automation capabilities. It could integrate with automation services to automatically resolve identified issues rather than simply providing instructions to the user."
"When I use VMware and Citrix there are conflicts."
"Two improvements that I would like to see are higher resolution console modes for guests and easier switching between consoles."
"My biggest suggestion would be some kind of a mechanism - and it's almost an AI-type thing, a Siri/Cortana - for where to find how to do certain things. If there was the ability to just type in a basic question and say, "How do I change the VM settings for this?" and it could bring me right there, that would be really awesome."
"I would like to see VMware vSphere provide a centralized patch service on the VMware level, regardless of your operating systems."
"It could be more composable. At present, a fluid pool is not available to us. It would be great to have the flexibility."
"I would like to see VDP and other features included to back up the VMs in a native manner."
"They can maybe review its price. They can also consider offering a free public version for development for a certain number of users."
"We've been using vSphere on Windows 7, and it had less fluff associated with ThinApp. Currently, with Windows 10 version that we have, it adds a lot of bulk to ThinApp. We have offices spanning across Canada from the east coast to the west coast. A ThinApp that is roughly around 400 MB in size would take minutes to open up. With Windows 7, the same ThinApp used to be close to 75 to 80 MB in size. So, I'm really not happy with the extra fluff that is bundled in Windows 10. It really messes things up for us at times."
