Find out what your peers are saying about VMware, IBM, Nutanix and others in Virtualization Management Tools."The solution is simple to use."
"The most beneficial aspect of Veeam ONE is the ability to track your company's growth on a month-to-month basis. With this tool, you can determine if you need to purchase more target storage or if you have enough. This is essential for budgeting purposes, as, without this information, you may discover too late that you require additional storage or that your cloud usage is not aligning with what you are being charged. Veeam ONE aids in forecasting and usage analysis, making it a valuable asset."
"The solution's customer service is good."
"The tool is a stable backup solution."
"The most valuable features are the notifications, which give us failure alerts for some infrastructure within the backup, and the reporting is excellent."
"As a manager, I find Veeam One's reporting service to be very helpful."
"For me, the most important feature is alerting."
"The product's initial setup phase was straightforward."
"We use the solution's vMotion feature to migrate VMs from one host to another across different environments and data centers."
"The latest innovation always comes from VMware."
"Its most valuable features are reliability, for sure, and quickness in getting the job done. I can spin off 100 or 200 machines in the matter of half an hour."
"The DRS feature of this solution is a very valuable feature."
"I like stability and the organization of the different functions into the I#M feature which is also quite useful, quite stable."
"Since it is riding inside of a multi-hardware environment, downtime is virtually nothing."
"It gives us the ability to be running over 250+ VMs on five physical hosts and in various flavours of guest OSs."
"Production people can quickly reboot the server with ESXi Quick Boot."
"The threshold could be easier to configure."
"For our company's usage, the price of the product is considered to be one of the major drawbacks because we have a lot of infrastructure, and its services don't fit well with our needs."
"If you don't have technical knowledge about these services, monitoring the virtual machines is hard."
"It would be better if the solution presented the number of servers and the success rate on the dashboard."
"Creating reports is a bit difficult, and you have to spend some time on it."
"When you have to renew the licenses you sometimes have some trouble getting rid of the old one and reassigning it to the new one. That's an aspect that could run smoother and could be better."
"Not highly customizable."
"The appliance doesn't have a domain. If there was a competitor with a domain, I'd likely use them."
"It would be ideal if they could integrate billing software so that clients can customize it directly on the virtual machine."
"The solution could be more stable."
"There should be more stability in the updates. They had an issue with the last release."
"These days we have an environment where we are often using clouds as well. A solution that would be a little more cloud-aware would be really helpful. I know there is a product from VMware that is more specifically for the cloud, but it would be nice if VMware Cloud Manager would be cloud-aware. It would simplify certain processes."
"I would like having something that works on a smaller screen, so we can get to it on our iPads and have it more touch-centric versus having to sit at a laptop."
"The only concern that I have with VMware is the support. It is very limited and can be better."
"There was a time we lost the password for the ESXi and we had to do a hardware reset. At this point, we had to fill up the ESXi from the bottom up. I am not sure if there was another solution to this problem but it took a long time."
"The license fee could be more affordable."
