The tool's most valuable feature is backup. The product makes it easy to manage virtual machines. Other tools require third-party applications like VMware and vSphere. However, KVM doesn't require these applications.
There is a strong emphasis on availability, and they have numerous API interfaces for distributed storage and the solution is quite known for its openness.
Documentation and problem-solving troubleshooting are the most valuable features. Performance (when fine-tuned and with "special" HW) is awesome, equal to or more than other enterprise closed-source solutions.
The most helpful aspect of KVM is the fact that the interface is so minimal. It includes just what you need to set up the VMs and manage them, and it's very simple to do so.
I like that it's easy to manage. It's also more powerful when it comes to security than others. That point of view is the one consideration. The other consideration is that it's cost-effective.
I find the density of the product most valuable. It is density that a technologist can just assign page merging. This is what makes KVM one of the important players of the virtualization market.
KVM stands for Kernel-based Virtual Machine, which is an open-source virtualization technology that is embedded in Linux. KVM allows users to seamlessly transform their Linux system into a hypervisor that, in turn, will enable a host machine to run numerous, isolated virtual environments or virtual machines (VMs).
KVM is part of Linux. Users with Linux 2.6.20 or newer already have KVM. As KVM is already a component of the current Linux code, it automatically improves with every new Linux...
One of the best features of KVM is its user-friendly interface.

The most valuable feature of KVM is its stability.
It is an easily scalable solution.

The product is really good...One can get good performance because of kernel-based virtualization.
It offers a high-availability environment.
What I like most about KVM is that it's very easy to use. Everything is built-in, even when writing command lines.
The initial setup was very easy.
The most helpful aspect of KVM is the fact that the interface is so minimal. It includes just what you need to set up the VMs and manage them, and it's very simple to do so.
I have found KVM to be scalable.
KVM is stable.
Very cost-effective.

Good screen and keyboard sharing feature.
This solution is open source and easy to configure.
It is easy to use, stable, and flexible. It is a pretty mature product, and it is faster than VirtualBox.
If you prefer command-line, there are all kinds of command-line options.
The KVM service is well managed with a central policy interface.
The GUI interface makes the management of KVM easier than ever before.
I like that this is an open-source solution. It is very powerful, and it's easy.
Scaling the solution is easy. You just have to add more hardware.
Our production servers are running in Linux, and this solution supports that environment well.
It is an open ecosystem, and we see there is a benefit in open-source solutions.
I find the density of the product most valuable. It is density that a technologist can just assign page merging. This is what makes KVM one of the important players of the virtualization market.
I think nine out of the ten supercomputers in the world use Linux KVM, so I think that attests to the fact that it is a scalable product.
