VMware Cloud Foundation Likes & Dislikes
VMware continues to produce the best hypervisor on the market. VSAN has allowed us to shrink our datacenter footprint by hyperconverging our nodes.
vSphere, vSan, vCenter and horizon view was perfect for non persistent VDI environment
Comprehensive performance and capacity analytics, seamless integration with VMware ecosystem. It just makes managing our private and hybrid cloud environments much more efficient.
VSAN raid configuration could be more transparent. Licensing model has gotten confusing.
Licensing dramatically changed with Broadcom. License that costs $X before, now they want $X
The licensing model and hardware compatibility requirements can be limiting. It demands certified hardware and the overall cost of implementation and support is relatively high compared to other solutions.
