User Testimonials
	Red Hat Virtualization (discontinued)	Windows Terminal
Likelihood to Recommend	Red Hat Virtualization is suitable for small implementation and hosting VMs. However, when you start asking for additional features or enhancements, the engineering team is not the flexible as other engineering teams in Red Hat. It is very likely they will not accept adding features or in the best case. They wouldn't commit to a plan when it is possible to be available. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Every person in Cybersecurity uses Linux and most are adapted to use VMWare or VirtualBox, however Terminal does everything I need it to do without needing those apps Incentivized Jeffrey Lange Cybersecurity Analyst Read full review
Pros	RHV issues/bugs can be reported via Bugzilla to RH support. The service is great and typically responds soon. Red Hat distribution integration is seamless as it is integrated into the kernel. OpenStack support enables more customized VM templates and network configuration control.

Cons	Documentation of RHEV needs more improvement. RHEV GUI needs a lot of improvements in some versions of RHEV, GUI will not work properly (shows incorrect details of VM ). Need fast rollout of patch releases. Need good linux Knowledge to manage the RHEVM.

Usability	No answers on this topic	Terminal's settings can be tweaked by a JSON file. This allows quick and instant changes, this program is light weight.

Return on Investment	It has had an extremely positive impact on my overall business and has allowed me to utilize and leverage it as an offering to my clients.
