Find out in this report how the two Infrastructure as a Service Clouds (IaaS) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Amazon AWS is easy to use and in the past two years, I've never had any issues with scalability or stability."
"Serverless computing: This can be more cost-efficient just regarding computing resources than renting or purchasing a fixed quantity of servers, which involves periods of underutilization or nonuse."
"The features with Amazon AWS that I have found most valuable are its flexibility and high availability. These are the most important and attractive points for me."
"I like ETL, the EC2 platform, and Route 53. These features are a great complement to the basic infrastructure of any company. The AWS platform has many features, but the fundamental cloud infrastructure is the most important."
"They integrate well with various other solutions."
"It's easy to manage. We can use a wide range of technologies with AWS."
"Very good automation and very stable."
"One of the most valuable features is that Amazon AWS has a lot of data centers and regions where we can position our virtual machines for leverage. Amazon AWS is also easy to use. You can quickly spin up something, use Explorer, building proofs of concept, things like that. Once the proof of concept is built once and we know how things are going to look from a production perspective, we try to move everything to the data centers. These features and the ease of use are the main reasons why we use AWS."
"The most valuable feature of Nutanix Clusters is to protect the data."
"The overall infrastructure is the most valuable part of Nutanix Cloud Clusters."
"The most valuable features of Nutanix Clusters are Prism Central, Micro-segmentation, and cluster scaling automation."
"Having a single pane of glass where you can have both your on-prem and anything else that you spin up within AWS is useful."
"In terms of dealing with our business-critical workloads, Nutanix is a highly scalable, highly resilient, and very high-performing solution."
"I've been very pleased with their support overall."
"The most valuable feature is having the full features of my Nutanix on-premises applications in the cloud."
"The scalability is good."
"There are numerous use cases, and the setup varies from complicated to very simple in some cases."
"Their support can be improved. In some cases, their support is not as proficient as it can be. They should be quicker at getting back."
"The technical support package for free trial users should be built on and improved."
"Like anything, Amazon AWS has room for improvement, but it's not bad."
"The solution could be more user-friendly."
"One thing that Azure offers that I think is good is Migrate appliance. So, Azure has a migrate appliance that allows you to run against workloads to determine the cost, preparedness, and scalability. I haven't found a similar feature in AWS. That kind of service would be great on AWS too if you could point it to the data center."
"The pricing could be adjusted to provide more advantages versus current on-premise solutions for business applications."
"The pricing of AWS is very unclear. They make it quite confusing."
"The reporting has room for improvement."
"The pricing can be better."
"The biggest weakness with Clusters at this point is that the adoption rate is low because customers don't know enough about it."
"Some of the interfaces aren't as intuitive as they should be."
"There are still some things that could be improved about the product."
"Perhaps the one thing that could be improved is the documentation around the solution."
"We've had some challenges with the implementation."
"I'd like more flexible options to get in and out of migration modes."
