Nutanix Cloud Infrastructure (NCI) Reviews

This is a very flexible solution that you are able to run however you want.

This solution offers excellent functionality but could use a stronger interface.

I have been using this solution for the past five years or so.

This is a stable solution that stands out amongst the competition.

This is a scalable solution that can be put on to hardware from any vendor.

We have not calculated exact numbers, though it is safe to say that, like any other hyperconverged solution, it does give back.

This solution is great for people who do not want to go with Acropolis or other VMs. With Nutanix, you are able to put your hypervisor of choice on it and run it the way that you want - it is extremely flexible.

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.

We are a solution provider and Nutanix is one of the platforms that we implement for our clients.

This operating system includes support for a complete ecosystem.

The ability to integrate with other products is fine.

This is a flexible solution.

The interface is okay.

With some projects that we are deploying, there are errors that arise when adding nodes.

I have been using Nutanix Acropolis AOS for perhaps four years.

The stability is good. This is the number-one product in that regard.

Scalability-wise, it is okay.

It is straightforward to deploy. The documentation available online makes it very clear.

We do see ROI but also experience problems with some deployments.

The local Nutanix representative in our region is not very good, so we are stopping our work with Nutanix products for the moment. We have worked on nice projects together in the past but for now, we are stopping our work with them.

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.

Our primary use case is infrastructure consolidation and it has performed fine.

The benefits are consolidation. That's always a benefit. I wouldn't say it has necessarily improved the way that the organization functions. It just takes up less space.

• Price
• Ease of use

I don't have any requests for features. It does everything that I need it to do, and then some.

It's very stable.

I switched because I got tired of paying support renewals for three different companies.

My most important criteria when selecting a vendor are ease of use and price.

The initial setup was very straightforward.

I evaluated EMC as well. I went with Nutanix because of the price.

I rate it a nine out of 10 because I think there is still room for improvement on the price.

My advice is to take your time and evaluate everything.

The Prism interface is valuable. It is very easy to manage, is based on HTML5, and all CVMs are able to assume the management role. They are not the SPOF.

Nutanix makes it easier for us to grow as the organization needs more resources. We can add more blocks and nodes in a granular way. This is unlike a traditional infrastructure that is initially invested in for four or five years.

I would like to see asynchronous replication in less than 60 minutes, or even in 15 minutes. I understand that they are working to lower replication times to one minute or less.

We have used this solution for two years.

There have been no stability issues.

There have been no scalability issues. On the contrary, it is easy to scale and approve new resources.

Technical support is fast, in our language, very efficient, and they have a great level of technical knowledge.

We used VMware vSAN. I did not change solutions for anything in particular. It was a decision of the organization, based on a corporate strategy.

The setup was very simple. It was simpler than any other solution.

If we compare prices with a three-tier environment, servers, and storage plus virtualization and licenses of VMware or Hyper-V, Nutanix has its own free hypervisor. It also natively incorporates backup and disaster recovery solution for free.

We evaluated VMware vSAN and HPE VSA.

Nutanix is a converged system with web-scale technology. The technology is invisible to the IT department. You can focus on your business, instead of making IT a problem in your organization.

My major use case is the Nutanix distributed file system based on the NDFS file system, which allows customers to consolidate and reposition.

The most valuable features are the user-friendly dashboard and that we don't need to move resources manually when adding new nodes into running clusters.

In the future, I would like Acropolis to add support for publishing external storage.

Acropolis is pretty stable - it works perfectly within the production environment.

This solution is scalable - I can go up to a 64 node cluster from a 3 node cluster. In one organization, I configured around 316 nodes, distributed across file locations, the biggest implementation even in Asia-Pacific.

The setup was straightforward, taking between 15 days and a month.

I would rate this solution eight out of ten.

• One-click hypervisor and firmware upgrade
• Snapshots and clones
• Compression and deduplication
• Backup and disaster recovery

It's easy to manage with the one-click hypervisor and firmware upgrade.

We can also store data more efficiently with compression and deduplication.

I have nothing to suggest.

I've used it for two and a half years.

No issues encountered.

No issues encountered.

No issues encountered.

It's good.

It's good.

We did, and we switched because Nutanix is easier to manage and configure.

It's simple, just a few clicks are needed to configure it.

We used a mixed team.

You should look into this product if you are looking for a good piece of technology.

I use it for electronic VPN management and HR applications.

The most valuable features are its ease of use and its good performance.

The product could be improved with more security. The product needs a bit more experience in the market. I think you don't have the possibility to add other hardware. It could be improved with the ability to add and extend.

Stability, in my opinion, is very good.

Scalability from my impression of the solution is that it's very good. We have 300 users.

My experience with customer support has been good. They're quick in response and offer quality help.

Previously, we used VMware. But it's a completely different solution with a different platform.

The initial setup was straightforward. It wasn't complex; it was easy to setup. Deployment took about 2 to 3 hours maximum. We require five people for deployment and maintenance.

When it came time to implement, we have our own service provider, so we went with them.

The advice I would give would be to ensure you choose the right configuration.

I like the product very much. I would say use it as a solution. I would rate this solution 8 out of 10.

The most valuable features are easy cloud administration and management. Acropolis also has a very good response time with our database applications.

An area for improvement would be the cyber security features. 

I've been using this solution for seven years.

Acropolis' stability is good.

The scalability is good.

Technical support responds to issues in a short time.

The initial setup is easy, and deployment takes around a week.

We renew our license on a yearly basis and have no costs in addition to the standard fee.

Nutanix is the best solution for infrastructure on cloud, hybrid, or on-premise. I would rate this solution as ten out of ten.
