Overall Satisfaction with vSphere
I use vSphere to connect to my VM host that contains a number of virtual machines for our test environment. vSphere allows me to quickly attach to my VM host to create virtual machines that I run ransomware simulations against. I have a number of servers and workstations and I can edit, delete or reconfigure those VMs quickly. In addition to providing access to my virtual machines in the test environment, I can also use vSphere to gain important information about my host including resource availability, data stores, and network configuration.
- When a VM loses network connectivity and a connection be accessed through other online remote desktop control applications, you can access it from the local network through vSphere.
- Easily create and modify virtual machines.
- Provides a robust interface to monitor host resources.
- Would be nice if events could generate alerts that would be emailed to a administrator
- vSphere has enabled me to save a significant amount of money in my lab. I'm able to configure one host and provision multiple virtual machines on it eliminating the need for a number of physical machines.
- vSphere saves a lot of time with the ability to revert VMs to a previous image.
vSphere is more robust than VirtualBox and is widely used so VSphere is the product of choice to avoid compatibility issues.
