Best Realtime and usage review for IBM Cloud for VMWARE Solutions
- Supports multiple IBM platforms[.]
- Monthly subscription[.]
- Provides users with the ability to provision bare metal workloads[.]
- Needs better support for workflow software like Terraform and Ansible[.]
- The web interface part could utilize some work. Especially, execution in various programs.
A perfect product for existing IBM users
- High availability
- Monitoring
- OS performance
- [Needs a] better sales deck to make more customers aware.
- API integration
- Monitoring HA events
It is less appropriate if you are already on VMware or Vsphere, as you will identify the difference of ease.

IBM Cloud for VMware Solutions
- Adaptable valuing relying upon size and scale.
- The presentation is first rate. Our on-prem climate was continually experiencing slack and general languor. With IBM running everything, it's much smoother.
- Start another group as little as one ESXi worker or scale a current bunch.
- The web interface part could utilize some work. Especially, execution in various programs.
- The underlying design interaction could be a touch more smoothed out.
Low cost but no support
- Low cost
- Ability to add or remove resources easily and quickly
- Support is horrible and or non-existent
- Documentation is out of date and incorrect for the most part
- IBM employees and salespeople are not aware of features or offerings
- Does not integrate the Zerto, only Veeam and has limited options for data migration
- Expandability: Allows us to add more capacity very easily.
- We like that IBM is a one-stop shop that offers a complete setup without having to deal with multiple vendors.
- The startup implementation was a pretty difficult process.
- The documentation we felt was rather lacking and could be improved.
A smaller company with a smaller VMware footprint would probably not be a good fit here. It's a pretty complex process to get things started, so it might not be worth it for a smaller company.
Scalability, reliability and sensibility.
- Multiple storage options
- High availability
- Windows updates are manually installed, not automatic
vSphere for your Enterprise
- You architect your own solution.
- Start a new cluster as small as one ESXi server or scale an existing cluster.
- The web interface component could use some work. Particularly, performance in multiple browsers.
Best Solution
It's a challenge to have another site as DR and maintaining it to the level of our product site. IBM Cloud allows us not to worry about maintaining another site. It's easy to get started with IBM cloud, transferring initial seeds, and maintaining replicating data.
- Easy to get started if you know the basics
- Lower cost compared to other storage backup solutions
- Easy to scale as you grow
- Easy to maintain with minimal manual oversight
- The integration services could be more robust
- The pilot programs could be more user-friendly
- Education and training could be more comprehensive for beginners

Our pleasant experience with vsphere cloud
- The performance is top notch. Our on-prem environment was always suffering from lag and general sluggishness. With IBM running everything, it's much smoother.
- It's always up to date. Our previous environment was always lacking the latest updates and security features. Our audit department enjoys having the peace of mind that everything is up to date.
- They handle the security of the environment. It allows our security team to focus on higher priority issues. They dont have to worry about making sure our systems are secured.
- I wish it were a bit easier to manage user access.
- The initial configuration process could be a bit more streamlined.
Wonderful product
