Currently, High Availability (HA) doesn't seem to recognize whether the VMs are online during failover, treating them as offline or unavailable."
"The tool is expensive."
"The solution is a very good tool, but it has a lot of limitations. One of the main issues is around how you define your retention policy, for instance, in Log Insight. It doesn't have it. You can't define a log retention policy. You also can't define the destination or location for your logs. All of the logs are in one index or one bucket."
"Paid or free does not matter, but it is complex to find good training material for vRealize Log Insight."
"It's great for VMware, but it would be good if they had third-party logins."
"In vRealize login files, we have limitations regarding log partitions."
