We performed a comparison between Nutanix Cloud Clusters (NC2) and Nutanix Cloud Infrastructure (NCI) based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Hybrid Cloud Computing Platforms solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature is having the full features of my Nutanix on-premises applications in the cloud."
"The most valuable feature of Nutanix Clusters is to protect the data."
"Having a single pane of glass where you can have both your on-prem and anything else that you spin up within AWS is useful."
"The most valuable features of Nutanix Clusters are Prism Central, Micro-segmentation, and cluster scaling automation."
"The scalability is good."
"In terms of dealing with our business-critical workloads, Nutanix is a highly scalable, highly resilient, and very high-performing solution."
"I've been very pleased with their support overall."
"The overall infrastructure is the most valuable part of Nutanix Cloud Clusters."
"The level of statistical performance data that it can confirm in real-time is extremely useful. I can see what my VM’s hosts and guests are doing from a single pane of glass and identify issues before they would otherwise become apparent."
"Hyper-convergence is the most valuable feature for me as it allows me to scale the hardware according to project requirements."
"Single click actions is definitely the most important. They were not even aware that they wanted this."
"I definitely find the reduced power consumption very valuable. Another aspect I really like, when one compares Citrix to VMware, is the interface where you talk directly to your VM from the present software."
"The features that I have found most valuable include its HA facility, viability, robustness, flexibility, it's time to go live is very short, and it has a friendly user interface."
"Nutanix Acropolis AOS is easy to use, it is a great platform."
"The architecture of Nutanix is the best, and the virtualization we get, out of the box, is an advantage. Also, dedupe and compression are done natively, inside the platform, so there are no additional licenses. That adds value to it."
"Nutanix has several unique capabilities to ensure linear scalability."
"There are still some things that could be improved about the product."
"The technical support for Nutanix Clusters could be better."
"Some of the interfaces aren't as intuitive as they should be."
"Perhaps the one thing that could be improved is the documentation around the solution."
"I'd like more flexible options to get in and out of migration modes."
"The biggest weakness with Clusters at this point is that the adoption rate is low because customers don't know enough about it."
"We've had some challenges with the implementation."
"The reporting has room for improvement."
"Nutanix should improve AHV to support migration VMs between clusters and storage containers. Migration between containers is possible, but it requires shutting down the VM. The procedure is long and there is no migration between clusters at all."
"Nutanix Cloud Infrastructure's LTS version needs to be more reliable."
"Nutanix Acropolis AOS could improve by adding some NAS features, similar to the ones that are available in the NetApp solution."
"The reporting section of the dashboard could be improved to include more detailed reporting about the servers."
"I feel like the flow chart and the automated processes have some room for improvement. They're nearly there, and the rest is fine. They've improved a lot over the past few years."
"Storage utilization and optimization should be better."
"Nutanix needs to improve network features like Passthrough – SR-IOV. It could be improved by supporting SR-IOV, if they had that support, I would not have needed to implement the VMWare vSAN."
"We would like to see it support other systems outside of the compute stack from which it was built."
