Product(s): VMware NSX Data Center

Overall Comment:"This tools is aim to be a powerful, centralized hub to manage and control the virtual environment. However, like many other VMware products, it has a lot of bugs, it has its own definition of terms and design, making it difficult to troubleshoot, especially logs are everywhere (could be on the Edge servers, or vCenter, or ESXi). It also has IDS/IPS feature, but not sure how reliable it is; at the end, proper firewalls and network switches have to implement, it is kind of defeating the purpose. It could be useful for large DevOps environment with many different teams running on different projects since it allows same subnet traffic control."
