Overall Satisfaction with Nutanix AOS
We use Nutanix AOS as our main deployment platform to deploy our VMware vSphere Infrastructure in our datacenter and in all our remote sites, branch offices. It allows us to deploy and expend in a timely manner. We are currently reviewing the move to the virtualization layer from Nutanix to remove our license from VMware.
Pros
- Easy one-click upgrade
- Rapid deployment
- Easy to manage and use
Cons
- The main con is that the solution relies on the network switch outside of the Nutanix block.
- As soon as we leverage the virtualization layer from Nutanix, the ROI will be a no-brainer.
- We have the possibility to rapidly deploy infrastructure when we do M&A transactions to secure the IT at the new site.
- Price
- Product Features
- Product Usability
- Product Reputation
- Existing Relationship with the Vendor
The price point is good. We have the ability to bring our own hardware, but we decided to go all-in with the Nutanix hardware. Our local vendor is very knowledgeable and can help us scale our next purchase.
We made benchmarks and evaluated other storage solutions. But the HCI component and the integration from storage, computer, virtualization are what mostly made the choice clear for us.
