FAVORABLE

“Unified Management And Performance Praised, Migration And Cost Pose Key Challenges”

Sep 5, 2025
My overall experience with NCP has been pretty positive. The platform delivers on simplifying hybrid cloud management by unifying things like compute, storage, and networking into a single software-defined layer. The platform is resilient and performance is strong. The downside would be that pricing can be a tad high depending on the features being used.

Good: Hyperconverged architecture with multiple choices of hardware depending on your preference of vendors. User friendly GUI for management. Linear scale of hardware. Needs Refinement: Limited legacy support. AHV limitations compared to competitors.

Nutanix Cloud Platform Likes & Dislikes

Like

What I like most is how NCP helps simplify things from an operational standpoint. Actions like one-click upgrades make ops much simpler than managing individual hypervisors. The fact it can extend to other clouds is really great too.

Like

Hyperconverged Infrastructure easy to maintain and manage & small footprint compared to 3 tier infrastructure, user friendly GUI.

Like

1. Single management & operation pane with PRISM including key features such as capacity forecasting, automation tools. 2. Supports both all flash and hybrid storage combinations in a single cluster and is a hardware agnostic solution giving the customer the flexibility to customize and select the combination of compute, storage and hypervisor based on their actual requirements. 3. Support for multiple hypervisors, one can use its native AHV or can even use ESXI and Hyper-V offering wide acceptance in the virtualization market.

Dislike

The pricing model is the biggest drawback, as it feels like it falls specifically in the premium realm of solutions without great options at a lower cost. The transition from other hypervisor/virtualized solutions can be daunting as well, so having a better option for doing those migrations in an automated fashion would be great.

Dislike

Rebuild of the Nutanix software if needed can be cumbersome & time consuming. Limitations of AHV compared to other competitors.

Dislike

1. The platform lags behind its competition when it comes to micro segmentation and advanced networking features. Nutanix flow needs more development in the advanced security features segment. 2. DC and DR replication is advertised as a native feature and free, however, practical deployment needs to be aware of the bandwidth constraints before using the feature if one doesn't have good network bandwidth between the DC and DR site. 3. Support for containers is not mature and is more of a lightweight container orchestration platform, so if an organization wants to run both enterprise-level container workloads and VMs from a single platform, then it may need to integrate with other solutions.

    HCI/DHI Powerhouse Held Back by Micro-Segmentation and Microservices Gaps

    4.0
    Jan 22, 2026
    For quite some time, it has been in the leader segment of HCI and yet again in the Distributed Hybrid Infrastructure Category. The reason why its adoption gradually increased is because it came out as a single stack and redefined the HCI category with unified management, storage and compute in a single pane. This gives the customer the flexibility to choose both hybrid and all-flash storage in a single cluster. However, to adopt it an organization needs to invest in training and enablement of the resources.
