We performed a comparison between Nutanix AHV Virtualization and Oracle VM based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Server Virtualization Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable aspect of this solution is that you don't need to pay for it, it's free, as opposed to paying for a VMware license."
"The solution is stable."
"The feature that has had the most impact is data locality. That is a feature that makes Nutanix different from other hypervisors. It helps us to get application performance that is probably double what we got with the legacy, three-tier architecture."
"Using AHV, we have a built-in VR solution. It operates using a reduplication-based unique package transfer process."
"The entirety of the infrastructure resides in the same product, which makes it easy to troubleshoot and investigate problems."
"You don't need any other instruments for control, AHV. You only need to look at the prism to control all infrastructure."
"Nutanix's customer support is good, one of its biggest selling points."
"This product stands out for its user-friendly interface, intuitive design, and responsive UI. It offers AVH features comparable to Nutanix but at a more cost-effective price point."
"The network capabilities are good."
"The virtualization product Oracle puts out just complements the performance of the database."
"The ability to live migrate VMs on the fly from one hypervisor to another has been very useful."
"What I like best about this product is that it's free."
"Oracle VM is user-friendly and facilitates compliance with Oracle Licensing, a feature not provided by competitors like VMware or Hyper-V. Oracle prefers customers to use their technology. It is also easy to implement, clone, and deploy machines with Oracle VM, making it a convenient solution."
"It's quite stable."
"I rate Oracle VM's scalability a ten out of ten."
"It's a very flexible solution because you have all the commands that you can do yourself."
"Honestly, there's a lot to work on the product, especially for someone like me who has worked on VMware. VMware offers a significant level of customization when configuring virtual machines, and that level of detail is not as pronounced on Nutanix AHV Virtualization."
"In terms of improvement, I think that they could have more partnerships with providers."
"An improvement would be for Nutanix AHV to support VMDK, AOS, Hyper-V, and VMware."
"The solution can be pricey."
"The price of Nutanix AHV Virtualization could improve."
"There are times when consultants, construction, or building firms need to use Beam but it can be difficult."
"The technical support for this solution needs to be improved in terms of response time."
"The initial installation is complex. It took approximately four days."
"Integration with cloud products would be beneficial."
"There have been some security issues in the past."
"Its database management features could be better."
"If there are issues with the storage, then all the machines go down, even if I have a backup solution in place."
"The user interface of the version that we have requires improvement. They have already improved the user interface in the latest version, but we are yet to migrate to that. The new UI is much better. I would like it to be simple. It is serving all of our needs, and I don't think it is necessary to keep adding. We are able to provision a VM in ten minutes, and provisioning it in five minutes will not have any added benefit."
"There is no memory over-subscription and CPU over-subscription. That has to be improved in terms of Oracle VM perspective. The other leading virtualizing software solutions have this feature."
"Oracle VM should be more feature-rich."
"Oracle VM could provide integration with backup solutions."
