Find out what your peers are saying about Cisco, Red Hat, SolarWinds and others in Network Automation."The features that I have found to be the most valuable are the collecting of statistics, reporting, and implementing changes to particular environments on a scheduled basis with no manual intervention."
"The most valuable feature of VMware NSX is the ability to set up virtual networking environments."
"The most valuable features are ease of use and user interface."
"The microsegmentation allows me to sleep at night. My job is reducing risk, plugging security holes, and working with the automated layer security. Even if somebody spins up a new server, it has to have a tag in NSX."
"We are happy with the scalability."
"You can easily integrate this with other VMware products. It is a robust solution."
"It gives more security and micro-segmentation. It helps to set network configurations in an easy way."
"Provides flexibility to deploy and have network virtualization on different types of firewalls."
"This is a good firewall and overall it is rich in features."
"Anything to do with storage needs improvement."
"A room for improvement in VMware NSX is that it has some security vulnerabilities, which means my company has to apply the patches every once in a while."
"We have been satisfied with the technical support. They were able to solve our problems. However, they could be faster."
"The solution is quite complex. You need to keep your thinking cap on and know what you are doing: Go to the training and listen to the solution architects when they come in because they have a lot of knowledge."
"The solution can improve by making it more straightforward, easier to install and maintain in the environment."
"Our technical team is always looking for the solutions that they work with to offer more convenient integrations."
"We would like better integration with the standards on the market. For example, with OSPF, their integration in NSX is very low. It's not a full OSPF integration. It is too thin from a protocol perspective."
"VMware NSX can improve the migration tools from the older environments to the new environment. For example, the NSX-V has become a legacy solution, it's out of support, but customers are able to keep using it. For migration purposes, it's better for them to provide a proper tool. It will be easy to migrate from an old environment to a new one."
"They could branch out to the physical layer."
