Nutanix Prism Reviews

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

The most valuable feature of this solution is that you can manage your virtual environments seamlessly.

Nutanix Prism is easy to use.

Although this solution has very good analytics capabilities, it can be even more granular. 

We have been working with Nutanix Prism for the past year.

This solution is quite stable.

Aside from ease of use, scalability is one of the key points of this solution.

Technical support is good but usually, people don't have to contact them unless they have a really complicated installation.

The length of time for deployment depends on the size of the environment. The bigger it is, the longer it takes to deploy. For an average deployment, including configuration, it will take about a week.

Overall, this is a good product and I highly recommend it.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.

We mainly use Nutanix Prism for storage.

The programs is very functional in case of a failure, because snapshots are taken every 30 minutes, and we also have synchronization between our two data centers. So whenever  we have a failure, we have another data center that is responds for every machine we have.

The features I find most valuable, is the integration between data centers.

Perhaps the interface can be more intuitive. It's easy, but it is very slow at the beginning. 

I am very satisfied with the technical support.

We've had no issues with the setup and installation. In terms of time, it was very fast. In terms of testing, it was very slow, but when everything had been verified and updated, the latest patches and everything, the program was working great. 

The deployment took about one month, and it was done by Nutanix people provided by Dell. We are satisfied with their work and we have an annual review of both systems. 

On a scale of one to ten, I will rate this solution an eight. What I'd like to see in the next release, is for it to be open to other platforms. That would be great, because now it's only available on Mac, IBM and Dell. Perhaps wide-open hardware would be great.

In the past we used to get alarms and an detector. Sometimes the messages you get from a problem doesn't point directly to the origin of the problem. So you have to elaborate some things for having a conclusion on what is failing. Perhaps they can improve this entire process, from beginning to the end, where you find a solution. In other words, being able to make the right decision faster.

We have a data center and provide licenses to our customers. Our company uses this solution on private cloud and our customers generally use it on-prem. We are partners and resellers of Nutanix and I'm a systems engineer.

I like the simplicity of use and the ability to have a single point to match things.

We've been waiting a long time for micro application using a company's provider, that would be a good improvement. The cost of the solution is quite high and I'd like to see that lowered. 

I've been using this solution for six years. 

I think the technical support of Nutanix is one of the best supports I have used.

The initial setup is straightforward and takes about an hour. 

In addition to the standard licensing fees there are extra costs for some functionalities such as capacity planning using Prism Pro.

I would rate this solution a 10 out of 10. 

We are a distributor and this is one of the solutions that we provide to our clients.

The most valuable features are the dashboards.

Prism Central, which is an aggregation of many Prisms, is very helpful.

Extra products are able to integrate directly into the Prism console.

In the next release, I would like the ability to browse data stores directly from the Prism interface instead of using third party product.

I have been using Nutanix Prism for about five months.

Nutanix Prism is a stable solution.

This solution is scalable. Our customers are large, enterprise-level companies with more than 500 or 1,000 users.

Nutanix has very good technical support.

The initial setup is straightforward.

A lot of my customers complain about the price of renewals, so I think that this can be improved.

Nutanix Prism is a good solution and I recommend it.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.

I think Nutanix is a good solution for hyper-convergence. Since there isn't always a centralized management tool that can do everything like related that. Nutanix supports all the hypervisors, that's why I feel it's best.

The centralized management of Nutanix Prism is the best feature. I can upgrade the hardware and I can upgrade the software from there. So that's a good feature.

I think that the Nutanix Prism Pro the terms it uses, it's not very user-friendly. Those terms should be a little more user-friendly. What terms they use should be more user-friendly.

I have been working with Nutanix Prism for two years.

We haven't had any stability issues.

We haven't had any scalability issues.

I've contacted Nutanix technical support. It was a good experience.

Nutanix it is straightforward, not complex. Deploying Nutanix Prism Pro takes a maximum of one hour.

Nutanix Prism pricing is higher than other products. They sell hyper-convergence as a bundled product. That's why I bought Nutanix. If I'm going with another hypervisor apart from ASV, the price goes higher. That's where the problem is.

I would rate Nutanix Prism Pro at an eight out of ten.

Our primary use case is for our virtual machines, specifically for our production. We are running about twenty to thirty production VMs, which are critical.

Nutanix Prism is mainly used for our daily operations, similar to VMware. Despite the lack of extraordinary features, it efficiently manages our daily operations now that we are managing our VMs. 

One of the most useful features is the disaster recovery setup, which includes two clusters, one for our production server and another for our recovery site.

The lifecycle management and upgrade procedure should be automated. With a single click, all critical upgrades should be completed. 

Additionally, the presales and marketing team should inform clients about resource requirements, such as RAM used by CVM, to help manage expectations.

I have been working with Nutanix Prism for more than four years.

The entire Nutanix solution is stable. We haven't faced any major difficulties or end-user complaints related to Nutanix.

We have not faced any challenges with scalability. When scaling, we simply upgrade our cluster with the assistance of our local partner.

Nutanix support is excellent, and their response time is extremely fast. I rate their customer service at ten out of ten.

Positive

We previously used VMware but switched to Nutanix mainly because Nutanix offered a composite solution for disaster recovery with RPO zero, while VMware did not.

The initial setup was managed by our partner, so we did not personally handle it.

The implementation was completed by our local partner who also supports us with upgrades and scalability.

The return on investment is positive. Initially, the CapEx was higher than VMware's, but considering the operational cost over time, it has been beneficial.

At first, the cost seemed heavy, but over time, its cost-effectiveness became evident.

We evaluated VMware before deciding to switch to Nutanix.

I rate Nutanix Prism nine out of ten. 

It’s important for future customers to know the resource usage by CVM should be clearly communicated in the presales stage.
