We performed a comparison between Proxmox VE 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."We now have the ability to quickly build and deploy VM desktops for application testing with the snapshot ability to rollback, as required."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is migration."
"It is a community-based solution."
"The virtualization is good."
"The tool has very good performance."
"It allows us to create an individual VM along with the GPU for machine learning."
"Proxmox VE is simple to use and it is feature rich. The fact is that it performs,"
"Proxmox is free, very stable, and doesn't require more resources for memory RAM. It's fine for a small data center."
"I can control and manage everything. I know everything that's cooking inside. This is the best part for me."
"The price is the solution's most valuable aspect. It's much cheaper than, for example, VMware."
"There aren't any bugs on the solution."
"The solution has a good licensing module."
"Stability and speed are the most valuable aspects."
"It is easy to deal with when comes to application migration and its compatibility with the multiple component applications."
"What they provide is way beyond the essential requirements of customers."
"It's a scalable solution."
"The only disadvantage of Proxmox VE is that it is a young solution so it does have some bugs."
"One issue with Proxmox is that some processes are not automatic. For some processes, you have to do it manually by command line."
"The virtualizer in Proxmox VE could improve."
"The facility of deployment is an area that needs to improve."
"Proxmox VE can improve by importing OVF or OVA files directly from OVA. I need to convert all the images to raw images before importing them to Proxmox VE. If there is a solution that I can import directly from VMDK, it would be better."
"We are facing issues with disk utilization and disk performance."
"Proxmox VE doesn't offer a good interface for monitoring."
"Proxmox VE needs improvement in cloud computing."
"It lags behind in that you need to go to something like Fedora to get all the extra bells and whistles."
"I heard that there are big differences between Red Hat eight and seven, but it's still quite difficult for me to judge it. I found it a bit more difficult to manage than version seven, which was much easier. In term of features, though, it is still not yet clear which is better. I have no clear idea of which features need to be changed at the moment."
"The solution could use network virtualization."
"In comparison to VMware, this solution isn't as stable. We're testing it right now, and we're not trusting the stability of the product."
"There is not any proper documentation on the site to reference."
"The solution has a very small lifecycle."
"A few features of the product do not work as well as those in VMware."
"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."
