We performed a comparison between IBM PowerVM and Odin Virtuozzo Containers based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Proxmox, VMware, Microsoft and others in Server Virtualization Software."The most valuable feature of IBM PowerVM is the performance of the database workload."
"The tool's performance is top-notch."
"The valuable feature of the solution is the technical aspects, focusing on elements like processor infinity."
"IBM PowerVM's most valuable feature is stability."
"It is a stable solution with reliable performance."
"Managing other operating systems is also straightforward with IBM PowerVM."
"PowerVM's most valuable features include swift optimisation and real-time migration."
"The case fileserver on the web server is the most valuable feature."
"When you run templates on the containers on Virtuozzo they have a lot of back-ups."
"To make it a ten, I would like for them to add automation and configuration tools in order to help use the manager."
"The solution is quite pricey."
"If it could actually virtualize the entire platform it might be better. If you're having more than one virtualization technology, maybe there's a way to actually have less - one technology to run the data center and maybe one special virtualization for power. If it integrated with other platforms more effectively it might be better."
"This solution is lacking the ability to have servers act as a cluster, such as in VMware. IBM has come out with a feature similar to VMware's vCenter but it is not as mature. They need to add LPM shared-nothing feature, such as in vMotion."
"The cost of this solution is high."
"A GUI version of VIOS would be a great plus for people moving from Intel-based hypervisors."
"The hardware licensing model could be improved because the licensing model is a bit different from the standard hardware procured."
"SRM for site recovery is a feature that should be included."
"Odin Virtuozzo has poor support and needs to improve."
