Excellent VM Management Tool

  • January 10, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the user interface and how easy it is to locate the necessary tools and settings for the virtual machine(s) that are being worked on.
What do you dislike about the product?
During my time working with VMware Virtual Center I have not found anything to dislike.

Remote access to virtual machines located off site. It has been very easy to manage these virtual machines remotely and it has helped with troubleshooting supposedly offline servers.

Definitely give it a go - you won't be disappointed.

VMWare Virtual Center

  • January 04, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I works. Lets me manage our VM Ware environment. The web client is now good enough to do anything I need to do.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are some issues using the remote console on Windows 10/Edge. This is being addressed but slowly considering how long Win 10 has been out.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
VMs are the only way to go. Sure we have some physical but with VMs we need management. This lets us do it.

Do you homework.

Virtually foolproof!

  • January 04, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
VMWare's VirtualCenter gives an easy look into VM health, history, and current status. It's a powerhouse that let me shut down old PC boxes and remove old equipment that has now been virtualized. Simple, easy, and effective.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing! The tool works wonders and even has a Linux version.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use this to virtualize old physical servers. This allows us to save on utility cost, save space in our server room racks, and future-proof our equipment.

Widely used option for reducing hardware cost.

  • December 28, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The best is the option to take images of the states of the VM which can be restored easily.
Very helpful for QA guys.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the time taken to restore the snapshot is very much.
Also observed that on restoring the snapshots the machine goes out of the domain.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Hardware cost is reduced to great extent.
Machine states can be preserved.

Overall positive experience but it can always improve and be better.

  • December 27, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is intuitive and newer version more user friendly. We are using vSAN for vSphere 6.x cluster to manage the infrastructure.
What do you dislike about the product?
Would like to see more API integration and more Open Source options. Also, it is admin centric but needs to be developer focused as well since DevOps is inevitable. Licensing needs to be streamlined. We would like to implement SDDC and would like better integration for different infrastructure stacks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are looking for a single pane of glass. Like many others, we would like to adopt a DevOps models with CI/CD. Further, automation is a key and we have vRA and vRO that integrates within vCenter that allows us to automate IaaS at a very basic level.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Do your due diligence. When we started our virtualization, choices were limited and other offerings were immature. But the market dynamics have changed and there are alternatives available.
Open Stack seems very attractive and Hyper V has come long way. It all depends on your needs, comfort level and skill set.

What do you like best about the product?
Vcenter's ability to manage all aspect's of your Vsphere environment in a single pain of glass.
What do you dislike about the product?
Vsphere and Vcenter can be cost prohibitive to smaller shops.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vcenter allows us to cluster our host resources, plan for redundancy and then monitor our environment to ensure our uptime and performance goals are met.
