The setup process is very easy and if you have some skills with VMware the transition will be fast and easy. Another advantage is that you can find a lot of documentation at the internet so is almost impossible not to find the solution to your problem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's based on Linux, so sometimes things are harder or you need some terminal skills. Also you don't have access to a graphical interface at the console, so you have to connect via web. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
No Client required, default web interface
Installation and management is incredibly easy.
Debian is used as the base OS,
KVM and LXC is provided as default virtualization tools
Great Forum and Documentation
Virtual networking stack is very easy and hackable (Bridge, OVswitch) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Headless Hypervisor would be perfect, web gui is mandatory
no support for docker hosting
I had issues with clustering services on upgrades (4-5 yrs ago)
UI can be changed, although it is very intuitive, more flexible solutions are available Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Virtual applications on the Internet, data control and manage cluster configured by web interface. Backup. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Set up from scratch with all data transfer service from my PC and local server. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Easy way to automate container orchestration using bash scripting and the Proxmox API. Easy cluster management using diverse hardware. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Low adoption in business enterprise environments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Proxmox's implementation of ZFS is second to none. It allows for pooling and failover to cluster nodes when needed and has saved me more than once. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Its integration into AD for creating admin accounts can be a little flakey at times. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is a very good hypervisor, no problem and very fast, the installation is very simple and the use is easy for experienced people, in addition there is a very large community to help us Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I find Proxmox quite difficult for beginners to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The features I like best right now are: ZFS usability - Storage flexibility options Clustering - one to as many servers as you need for your scalable infrastructure Using hardware passthrough Light weight OS Flexibility, install on old and new hardware! In the few years I used this software I never had a kernel panic. This software just simply works and is a great platform to get in on as a beginner as they have a community / free edition. Learn this platform it will get a good base and understanding of Hypervisor style operating system. Then take that knowledge even further, especially as ESXI / VM ware has changed their licensing model. I rate this from Entry Level to expert, use in any and all cases!

With the use cases I use it for, I have honestly at this time not come across any down sides to this Operating System. It is very well built. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Proxmox VE is an open-source hypervisor free to use based on GNU General Public License, but support is paid. It is very easy to deploy and use. Can be installed on old PCs as well as High-End servers. The backend services are not new, but powerful and reliable services well known to all Linux users and admins. It supports LXC containers as well as QEMU/KVM virtual machines. Featuring that using of containers is similar to VMs on GUI, and make containers very easy-to-use and handy. It also supports CEPH and RBD to build a distributed object store and file system designed to provide excellent performance, reliability and scalability. Documentation for Proxmox is very well-made, simple and complete and community support is also available for free. Clustering is simple and easy to use; you can cluster non-hardware-similar hosts as cluster members. Proxmox VE is a complete virtualization management solution for servers. In production and with lots of machines, you need hypervisors, management suits and backup solutions. But in Proxmox all is provided as ONE package. Simple instances or scheduled backups are provided in few clicks. Management also is a user-friendly and simple to use web-based package. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is somehow fragile for non-Linux users who are not familiar with back-end techs that are included. Training is highly recommended before using it in production! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Proxmox Clusters, high available, container Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
