Find out what your peers are saying about Cisco, Red Hat, SolarWinds and others in Network Automation."The features that I have found to be the most valuable are the collecting of statistics, reporting, and implementing changes to particular environments on a scheduled basis with no manual intervention."
"The firewall is its most valuable feature."
"The microsegmentation is great, and the security team thinks it is great."
"This is a good firewall and overall it is rich in features."
"It gives more security and micro-segmentation. It helps to set network configurations in an easy way."
"The most valuable feature of VMware NSX is the ease of use and its user friendly. For example, it is simple to change the subnet masks."
"The interface is intuitive enough."
"It operates on a logical level, providing a comprehensive and centralized way to manage your network resources."
"This is the most scalable product of its type."
"Anything to do with storage needs improvement."
"The price could be better. The non-enterprise version of the product should also be improved. I would like VMware to expand beyond the network and provide some VLAN technologies and more. I think we have one, but it's more on the distribution side because it's more on the upper side of the network. I'm looking forward to that."
"They need to enhance their technical support."
"They could branch out to the physical layer."
"We would like tenant segmentation available in future releases."
"It might be nice to have more AI in the future."
"Lacks integration with other solutions."
"If you're worried that NSX is too complex, I would tell you to take another look. If you compare NSX to a similar solution you might find it to be a bit more complex. Usually, the guy that comes in to implement NSX isn't the network guy and will lack the knowledge for the program. He can lack the knowledge for this program and will therefore think it's complex. You need somebody with network experience."
"An area for improvement in VMware NSX is that it uses up more resources and is heavy on the network. What I'd like to see in the next release of the solution is more automation."
