Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, VMware, Nutanix and others in Hybrid Cloud Computing Platforms."The integration is very good."
"It has enterprise data services with consolidated storage data protection and disaster recovery. One valuable aspect is its efficiency as a robust platform. There is an ease of managing all processes. The data recovery process is remarkably fast. It’s a stable solution. The product is scalable. It provides high-speed live migration capability."
"I can use VMware or Hyper-V license, if I already have. But if I use a similar solution as Nutanix Acropolis hypervisor (AHV) that comes embedded in Nutanix solution, I can manage all my virtual environments with everything I need without spend more money on licenses."
"It is easy to use. One of the things they have as a design goal is to reduce complexity and simplify things."
"The solution remains stable across versions."
"There are a lot of features in Nutanix that are different from other hyper-converged solutions, such as site-to-site replication. VM-based site-to-site replication is bundled with the software licensing. For the DR, it has the availability groups, which is one of the key features that Nutanix provides."
"Some of the most valuable features of Nutanix Acropolis are that it's free from Nutanix and it's very stable."
"The scalability is great."
"Nutanix does a superb job with technical support."
"Well, sometimes they release product after product, so it's it's kind of hard to keep an overview of all the different aspects of of the solutions."
"Areas for improvement would be the memory setting and the CPU setting reserve features, which are not available on Acropolis. I also feel that the DR solution, the reporting, and the component that is combined with the Nutanix OSP need to be improved."
"USB dongle-based licenses do not allow us to directly locate the USB ports on Nutanix."
"Nutanix can be a bit complex to understand."
"They need to improve the look and feel of the interface. The functionality is fine, but the appearance could be better."
"The only problem is that not many operating systems are supported on the AOS hypervisor. They need to probably increase the support on multiple operating systems. As of now, a very limited number of operating systems and patch levels are supported on AOS."
"The pricing of the solution is too high. It needs to be adjusted or lowered to be more competitive."
"The reporting feature isn't very good."
"The one note of improvement I have for Nutanix is that the installation should be easier."
