Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"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.""The solution can scale well.""The most valuable feature of Nutanix Clusters is to protect the data.""The most valuable features of Nutanix Clusters are Prism Central, Micro-segmentation, and cluster scaling automation.""The most valuable feature is having the full features of my Nutanix on-premises applications in the cloud.""The overall infrastructure is the most valuable part of Nutanix Cloud Clusters.""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 strength of this product is that they have many good database options, compared to other vendors.""There is ROI with the product's use.""Oracle Cloud Platform has good scalability.""The product is scalable.""It is more secure and more controlled than an on-premises deployment.""Overall, there are some very good features on Oracle and it offers good customization capabilities.""The performance and processing capability are excellent.""In terms of features, upgradeability to the latest version of Oracle suites has been a good feature. All we have to do is just patching or an upgrade, it's pretty easy. Then, it gets regularly updated. That's what I like about it."

Cons
"The pricing can be better.""The technical support for Nutanix Clusters could be better.""Some of the interfaces aren't as intuitive as they should be.""The reporting has room for improvement.""We've had some challenges with the implementation.""I'd like more flexible options to get in and out of migration modes.""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."

More Nutanix Cloud Clusters (NC2) Cons →

"The setup was not simple.""The biggest challenge I'm having with the cloud offering is the sizing. So, pricing becomes difficult. The sizing challenge is in terms of being very clear on how your data growth or your requirements would be. It becomes a bit difficult to be able to ensure that there's enough future proofing in what you've signed. At the same time, the whole idea behind the cloud is to be able to pay for what you use. You don't want to pay for something that you're not using.""There's one app I have to install on my device, the Articulate Player app. It's only available on Apple and Android, but it's not available for Windows. I can't run the program on my desktop, to use it to learn Java.""What I'd like to see from Oracle Cloud is an option for the customer to have a single portal to manage and monitor not just Oracle Cloud, but some of the on-premise products in the hybrid scenario as well. If it can be shipped out as an out-of-the-box solution, that would be wonderful. It's not so easy, but for a company like Oracle, it shouldn't be a problem. Many customers go through a lot of effort and burn money to achieve this, so it's an opportunity for Oracle to provide it for customers looking for this type of solution.""They offer some basic services but the choice is not as rich as other cloud providers.""Simplifying the cloud management console would be really valuable for small and large customers alike.""The portfolio should improve for the Oracle Cloud Platform. Oracle has to increase the services offered. New services should be added to be able to compete better with Amazon AWS which is the best, and the biggest service. Oracle Cloud Platform has a small portfolio, but it's a good one.""It does require some training in order to be able to use it effectively."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "I am working on one configuration that is priced at $50,000 USD, whereas another one that I'm working on is estimated to cost $250,000 USD."
  • "There are positives and negatives to licensing. It all makes sense now, but it took a while. When the licenses first changed, it was a bit confusing."
  • "The solution has been more costly at this point. We do not see any cost savings."
  • "The price is high."
  • More Nutanix Cloud Clusters (NC2) Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Make sure you read the fine print."
  • "My ROI has increased."
  • "It's not that expensive. I think it's maybe half or one-fourth of our actual on-prem cost, especially in Oracle Data Integrator. It's pretty cheap. Maybe around $30,000 or $40,000 per month."
  • "Costing depends on if you have an existing license for the application and for the operating system."
  • "The cost may be a bit high for many potential users."
  • "The pricing is a little bit expensive compared to other products."
  • "Improvements can be made with respect to flexibility in the licensing model."
