We performed a comparison between Nutanix AHV Virtualization and RHEV based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Server Virtualization Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Nutanix AHV Virtualization has good performance and can be used for backup and disaster."
"It is a stable solution. I haven't faced stability issues in the solution."
"The entirety of the infrastructure resides in the same product, which makes it easy to troubleshoot and investigate problems."
"Nutanix AHV Virtualization is a private cloud platform offering integration with various public cloud providers. This integration allows for a multi-cloud approach. In my opinion, Nutanix AHV Virtualization's strength is its storage. It innovates and excels in the hyper-converged storage segment, making it the number one choice in this area."
"We use Prism Central, the centralized management console for AHV clusters. It allows administrators to manage multiple clusters from a single interface and provides a unified view of the entire infrastructure."
"The product has helped consolidate a lot of my workload."
"The most valuable aspect of this solution is that you don't need to pay for it, it's free, as opposed to paying for a VMware license."
"With AHV, you can run micro-segmentation, which is, on the network security level, to have network virtualization across clouds."
"The solution has a good licensing module."
"Red Hat is the most stable system."
"The solution is overall very good with all the facilities. It is user friendly, easy to configure, has documentation, and support is available."
"It is easy to deal with when comes to application migration and its compatibility with the multiple component applications."
"The solution is a great all-round product. The virtualization is especially good."
"What they provide is way beyond the essential requirements of customers."
"The initial setup is fairly straightforward and well-documented. The process is very similar to its competitors. The success of your setup depends on how well you plan."
"The solution makes migration easy."
"There is no web interface with AHV."
"The solution can be pricey."
"I haven't come across any limitations. Nutanix doesn't support externally attached storage through Fibre Channel. However, Nutanix doesn't support Fibre Channel connectivity. This, in my opinion, is a weakness of Nutanix. For instance, it does not support Cyber Talent. To clarify, you cannot connect external Fibre Channel storage or NAS storage resources with Nutanix. However, VMware vSAN supports such solutions."
"The initial installation is complex. It took approximately four days."
"Some companies do not support AHV."
"The solution could improve the call logging system to HPE, it is a bit tedious."
"The licensing costs are a little bit expensive."
"The integration capabilities of Nutanix AHV Virtualization is an area with certain shortcomings that need improvement."
"It lags behind in that you need to go to something like Fedora to get all the extra bells and whistles."
"The biggest improvement would be more third-party direct support for things like backups and provisioning through third-party portals."
"The UI should be more interactive with additional features."
"With RHEV, the cyberattacks should be fewer. I want RHEV to be better protected."
"While everything needs improvement in some way, I have no specifics."
"Specifically, enhancements in managing virtual machine migrations, cloning, and the creation of different VMs could further optimize its functionality."
"The support is tricky in a few places. We're facing some challenges within Malaysia where we don't really have the system integrators available who can provide extended support. When we need personnel on-site, we can't get them."
"We hope that Red Hat can produce a paradigm edition. We are looking for paradigm computing and paradigm storage. Its scalability can be improved. It is not easy to scale, and we hope that Red Hat can provide a more scalable system. They should also provide local service and support. Our customers are looking for a good software vendor to provide professional services."
