We performed a comparison between Cisco Intersight and Nutanix Cloud Infrastructure (NCI) based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Cloud Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The tool helps to manage Cisco servers."
"Provides an overall view using a single portal."
"Scalable portfolio of services for remote device management, with good cloud integration. It's also easy to set up."
"We enjoy having an inside view of all the data centers and all the EdgeX nodes within a single portal rather than going into the EdgeX connections one by one."
"The product has good integration."
"Our organization uses Cisco Intersight since it helps manage our physical infrastructure."
"Intersight can validate our environment."
"Cisco Intersight has valuable features for workflow automation and inventory administration."
"It has been stable so far."
"The technology of Nutanix Acropolis AOS is the most valuable feature. You don't need multiple screens to manage."
"In terms of scalability, adding a number of nodes, I find that it will not be any issues."
"One of the most valuable features that can be found, is the inclusion of a hypervisor for free."
"Nutanix has the best virtual desktop infrastructure."
"It is all-in-one. The compute processing, storage, and network altogether make it convenient. We don't have to have different modules for expansion."
"Ease of deployment"
"Technical support is okay."
"The product's setup should be easier."
"The solution needs some enhancement in order to build the cluster in two nodes."
"Cisco Intersight needs some improvement in terms of stability. Hybrid cloud management and proper hyperscaler tie-up are other areas for improvement."
"When new features are added, the service becomes full of bugs."
"It's a very complex solution."
"The usability must be better."
"In the future, the solution needs to plan on an extension to cover a broader range of objects since, at present, there are some Cisco devices within the range of Intersight UCS that it can't manage."
"The unique problem with Cisco Intersight is that it's not supporting some players."
"The GUI for this solution needs improvement."
"NCI's pricing is expensive."
"We had a few problems with the foundation machine that you can use to build your systems out. We've got it working now, but it should be improved."
"The One-Click Upgrade process could/should offer the ability to integrate with 3rd party drivers. For example, we use NVIDIA Grid graphics cards. It would be amazing if, during the One-Click Upgrade process, we could "slipstream" additional VIB drivers for ESXi into the upgrade process."
"Notifications could be improved as they're not currently very useful."
"Nutanix should improve AHV to support migration VMs between clusters and storage containers. Migration between containers is possible, but it requires shutting down the VM. The procedure is long and there is no migration between clusters at all."
"There is a lot of functionality in Prism Central, but sometimes you want to see those features in Prism Element."
"In the licensing, it needs to be clear about features because it is not clear whether Flow is integrated or not."
