We performed a comparison between Odin Virtuozzo Containers and VMware vSphere based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Proxmox, VMware, Microsoft and others in Server Virtualization Software."When you run templates on the containers on Virtuozzo they have a lot of back-ups."
"It's easy to use, and it is flexible."
"The most valuable feature would be the slight changes they've made to VMFork instant cloning, in which they have abstracted out the parent-child relationship in cloning, in which certain features, like HA and DRS, are now usable on that parent virtual machine. That is wildly amazing and something that wasn't available until 6.7."
"The GUI is very simple to use."
"An important vSphere feature from a security perspective is VM encryption. As is the right thing to do in this day and age, security needs to be the number one concern for any IT operator. While there are security solutions which can be delivered at the physical, hardware layer, they don't necessarily address all of the requirements from an encryption perspective. Being able to have VM-centric, VM-level encryption is a great feature of vSphere."
"I use customization to prevent any network and DNS collisions to the router."
"Tech support is very knowledgeable."
"The VMware community is always there and it is a valuable resource."
"It is absolutely simple and efficient to manage. We can bring in people who have never been exposed to vSphere or virtualized environments and they're still able to support it from a server standpoint. The training time as well as the adoption rate, for a junior technician or somebody coming right out of college, is very good."
"Odin Virtuozzo has poor support and needs to improve."
"VMware vSphere needs to increase the datastore volume."
"Stability and manageability need improvement."
"The integration capabilities of the solution have certain shortcomings, making it an area where improvements are required."
"The solution needs to improve its stability."
"The solution could improve by having more integration."
"I would like more Amazon stuff inside of VMware."
"It would be nice to see it a little more tightly integrated with the patching solution so you could do it in one pane of glass. Right now, you have to jump back and forth. It's still not difficult, but you have to jump back and forth to do your update definitions and then go back and actually do the updates themselves."
"It is expensive. They can improve the licensing cost for Cloud Director. They can also improve the integration with other applications and the metering feature, which is currently not flexible."
