Overall Satisfaction with vSphere

vSphere is the best experience in virtualization so far. The interface is straightforward and informative. The web client is useful when I'm not near my main system for responding to emergencies while not at work. Scheduling tasks and alarms, as well as spinning up new instances and snapshots are straight forward.
  • vSphere is dependable.
  • It will run a large variety of workloads, and operating systems without issue.
  • Administrative tasks are simple to find and configure.
  • The recurring costs of licensing.
  • The user interface is sometimes slow.
  • Initial setup can be difficult
  • vSphere has been all positive for us. We use it extensively.
  • Only real negative is the cost, but you get what you pay for.
Support is responsive, however you may wind up dealing with support based outside the US.
