"The template option allows us to build a desktop in a VM, then quickly deploy as a linked clone."
"One of the most valuable features of this solution is the popularity of the OS."
"The price is the solution's most valuable aspect. It's much cheaper than, for example, VMware."

"This solution needs a more flexible and efficient backup solution in the dashboard."
"There should be a helm feature for managing Kubernetes ports directly from the Proxmox traffic interface."
"The virtualizer in Proxmox VE could improve."
"The solution should include some features that can help with converting raw files into different formats. It should offer better management around raw files."
"We have only command lines for a management application to remove sites. The solution needs a proper GUI."

"We hope that Red Hat can produce a paradigm edition. We are looking for paradigm computing and paradigm storage. Its scalability can be improved. It is not easy to scale, and we hope that Red Hat can provide a more scalable system. They should also provide local service and support. Our customers are looking for a good software vendor to provide professional services."
"The Administration of the Oracle database and the SAP ERP needs improvement."
"The UI should be more interactive with additional features."
"When we do a direct comparison, then obviously VMware does better in terms of having Fault Tolerance and doing active disaster recovery and these kind of things. This is something that can be improved within Red Hat."
