Overall Satisfaction with VMware vCenter Server

VMware vCenter is being used across the whole organization, each business unit (BU) would be responsible for their vCenter server. The division I work with has 3 locations, with each facility having its own vCenter. The business requires VMware vCenter to run its hosts with virtual servers running necessary business related tasks.
  • Flexible
  • Reliable
  • Easy to navigate
  • Be sure you have the latest release, otherwise, you will have to [rely] upon Java to connect
  • Easy to access and use
  • Reliability
  • Flexibility
  • I access vCenter every day. It's positively critical that all servers / apps are running efficiently.
  • VMware helps me with keeping an eye on the environment.
  • I would say a positive ROI
VMware runs in the cloud.
I do not have the experience with cloud based VMware to comment.

If you already have a VMware environment, then you must have a vCenter. I can only speak on behalf of smaller business environments; each facility has 2 hosts with 1 vCenter. A facility doesn't have more than 16 virtual servers running. You can certainly run more hosts with more servers. I can't say for sure how large a vCenter can handle how many hosts / VMs. I suppose it's up to how much you can afford with hardware.
I believe VMware has a bigger market share than Microsoft. Again, I can only speak on using VMware, I have no experience with Microsoft virtual environments.
