Find out what your peers are saying about Apache, Cloudera, Amazon Web Services (AWS) and others in Hadoop."The most valuable feature is the backup capability."
"Easy to operate and use."
"Spectrum Computing's best features are its speed, robustness, and data processing and analysis."
"We are satisfied with the technical support, we have no issues."
"The most valuable aspect of the product is the policy driving resource management, to optimize the computing across data centers."
"This solution is working for both VTL and tape."
"The solution's most valuable feature is its good automation features."
"vCenter Orchestrator is very reliable and stable."
"In regards to the workflows, the fact that we can actually have a full dashboard library of all the existing workflows on this is great. We can see all the workflows and what all the actions do and can work with scripts."
"It has the best workflow feature."
"We can manage and relocate resources easily."
"The open, flexible architecture has brought in the agile computing environment along with better Dr capabilities. Automation management and operational tasks across VMware and third-party applications, like our HMIS and other business productivity applications, have delivered peace of mind."
"The technical support services are excellent."
"The solution's ability to template and easily implement are the most valuable features. It offers good replication as well."
"We have not been able to use deduplication."
"SMB storage and HPC is not compatible and it should be supported by IBM Spectrum Computing."
"This solution is no longer managing tapes correctly."
"Lack of sufficient documentation, particularly in Spanish."
"Spectrum Computing is lagging behind other products, most likely because it hasn't been shifted to the cloud."
"We'd like to see some AI model training for machine learning."
"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."
"The response time of vCenter Orchestrator's support could be improved."
"I did not do the initial setup. However, it was complex at the beginning."
"The licensing is expensive and should be improved."
"The price of this product is high and could be improved."
"I would like to have an interface that can manage both on-premises and cloud solutions from a single console, where we can easily manage the resources that are being used or at least applications. Whereby clicking here and there from on-premises to cloud, or cloud to on-premises, depending on the requirements. If that can be accomplished, it will be extremely beneficial."
"It could be integrated with third-party hypervisors."
"I would like to see better performance."
