Find out what your peers are saying about VMware, Nutanix, IBM and others in Cloud Management."The most valuable aspect of the solution is the interface on the console."
"The DRS feature from VMware is very valuable to us because it balances workloads."
"The solution is pretty stable and reliable."
"The most valuable feature is how easy it makes it to manage the VM."
"If I need to do DR, VMware can enable me to use vMotion, which requires use of vCenter. You cannot do vMotion without vCenter. We do a lot of automation, orchestration, and simplification for that purpose."
"Technical support is helpful."
"vCenter Orchestrator is easy to use."
"The most crucial feature of vCenter is its scalability. We can use it to expand our network, so we don't have to report our client devices. The network configuration features are also helpful because we can migrate entire networks."
"It's 100% stable, it's always stable. We haven't had any bugs. The solution works very well and we haven't had any problems."
"The customization should be improved."
"Using this solution requires a lot of experience."
"vCenter Orchestrator's debugging capacity could be improved."
"The product lacks GUIs. The tool should have more GUIs available, along with easier product documentation."
"The snapshot technology of VMware is not good compared to other solutions in the market, like Nutanix."
"There are no good manuals or guidelines on integrations. Hence, you need to be asking someone."
"As we work towards more stability on the solution, sometimes we'll try something and it breaks and it's easier to restart the service. That's the only drawback. We've experienced this with other applications as well."
"I believe vCenter Orchestrator should be part of VMware vSphere's basic bundle. As a product, vCenter Orchestrator should not be licensed at all because the world has progressed way beyond what it can offer."
"It is too expensive. One of the main issues is the price."
