Pros

“It has been very useful for monitoring critical business applications, reducing downtime, and improving overall operational efficiency. Although the initial setup and advanced customization can sometimes be complex, the platform offers strong monitoring capabilities at a cost-effective price compared to many other enterprise APM solutions.”

Rahul R.

Tool Administrator

“It provides comprehensive monitoring, proactive alerting, and valuable performance insights that help maintain application availability and quickly resolve issues.”

Mohd A.

Assistant manager

“Integration between OPM and APM still feels clunky. If more things were shared between the two, such as notification profiles, assets, dependencies, etc. were shared, setting up a large org would be a lot easier”

Travis R.

System Operations Engineer

Pros

“keeping downtime minimal and providing reliable infrastructure management and uptime helps VMWare and Vsphere sit comfortably at the head of the table, especially when discussing on-premise (non cloud) virtualisation options.”

Connor Q.

Team Lead

“its ability to manage a large number of virtual machines (VMs) from a single interface, simplifying operations, security and central control management.”

Pyae S.

HPE support Engineer

“You can easily add new hard drive storage to Servers or edit the RAM. With templates you can add new Server rlly fast and implement them in your environment.”

René B.

Administrator

Cons

“Limited Cloud-Native Monitoring Depth While it supports AWS, Azure, and GCP, it lacks the deep, contextual cloud-native observability you get from tools like Datadog or Prometheus/Grafana stacks.”

kabelo m.

security analyst

“The alerting system produces many false positives, especially when it notices that certain services or hosts are down during the nights reserved for routine maintenance tasks.”

Nermin M.

Data Engineer

“At some time the system may take some time to update some screens, for example the dashboard may take some time to refresh during peak usage. If the latency is short it can hamper decision-making whenever decisions are most urgent.”

Michael H.

Tech Coordinator

Cons

“The biggest issue with Vsphere, by far, is the remodelling of their pricing and licensing structure. Since Broadcom purchased the vendor, they have narrowed their desired client-base to a fraction of their existing market, meaning that many small and medium enterprises are left in a very difficult situation, having to choose between switching to less mature technologies, or choosing to maintain their current stack at significantly hiked price margins.”

Connor Q.

Team Lead

“I don't have much about vSphere. But now We can't download the vmware and vcenter path file in Broadcom portal.”

Soe M.

System Engineer Infrastructure

“For example if there are locking issues within the cluster against a fibre-channel storage array, you may need to reboot the entire cluster resulting in an outage of 100% of all infrastructure on the platform.”

James B.
