Overall Satisfaction with VMware ESXi
We have implemented VMware ESXi at our primary data center and all of our remote office locations. It is being used across our whole organization and provides a quick and easy way to provision servers as needed. VMware ESXi has consolidated our server footprint from racks of physical servers to only a few VMware ESXi hosts that can support hundreds of virtual servers. Servers can now be provisioned in a matter of minutes rather than days.
- Quick and accessible to provision servers as needed. Templates can be configured in VMware ESXi.
- VMware ESXi host software efficiently manages hardware resources so that a single-host server can support multiple virtual servers without causing resource contention.
- Understanding Resource groups and resource reservations can be difficult and cause issues if not fully understood.
- I would like to see better performance monitoring capabilities from the web GUI. The current options can be cumbersome, and many still need to be monitored from the command line.
- VMware ESXi has reduced our physical server footprint and power utilization dramatically.
- With VMware ESXi, we can provision new servers just about as quickly as the business asks for them. This saves money and provides better productivity.
