Helps to create dashboards but improvement is needed in pricing and support

Enhancing database management with operational efficiency but needs better compatibility
Era should be compatible with various environments, such as VMware and Red Hat, to be hypervisor agnostic. Due to increasing adoption among enterprise clients, integration with Kubernetes platforms is also needed. Furthermore, the product can benefit from improving its understanding of architectural setup and communicating its limitations to users and partners.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"EDB Postgres Enterprise Manager helps us to build custom files."
"The most valuable feature of Nutanix Database Service is the ability to manage multiple vendors."
"Management and provision are the most important features of Nutanix Database Service."
"AI has been deployed within Nutanix. It's very easy to provision the machine within minutes of the application orders. They can hand those over and work along with the AI team to get the data available quickly for business analysis."
"With Oracle, it took around one hour to refresh the database and now, with Nutanix, it takes a quarter of that time."
"We use the solution to save costs and simplify operations."
"This is a very useful solution for database management."
"It is also a single platform, all in one place, and that is a reason we went for this solution. Earlier, we had multiple platforms, the database and the OS, but this is a single platform that helps us with what we are doing."
"Overall, the solution is very good. It's easy to use and simple to handle many actions, such as VM cloning, testing, and prediction."
 

Cons

"The tool needs improvement in pricing and support."
"It would be helpful if Nutanix added a billing system for databases. We need to automate this with a separate solution. We are service providers, so it would be easier for our customers if there were a built-in system that we could use for billing."
"There is room for improvement in the pricing structure."
"Patch management is an issue as it regularly causes stability problems."
"The initial setup was a little tedious and complex. If they could make the setup slightly more user-friendly, then that would definitely be beneficial. If they could give a clear indication of what ports are required across the business and multiple VLANs, then your prep work can be done beforehand and before you do the actual installation. Because the documentation that was provided was not 100 percent accurate, so we had to do a lot of custom firewall rules after we deployed Nutanix Era."
"We are also overwhelmed with the quality of technical support associated with the product."
"The solution should provide more integration with more databases."
"We have a regular license program because it's really expensive."
"The solution could improve by providing more support for more vendors."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Licensing costs will be the main scalability problem."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a five out of ten."
"The price of the solution is expensive."
"This solution is reasonably priced."
"The pricing is competitive."
"The licensed-based pricing is confusing and too high."
"It's priced fairly... It's a good value. When you go looking for something from Oracle that automates things and makes your life easier, it's always going to be a minimum of $500,000. Era's nothing like that."
"The tool is expensive."
