# VMware HCI Software Reviews & Product Details

Hyper converged infrastructure (HCI) allows the convergence of physical storage onto industry-standard x86 servers, enabling a building block approach with scale-out capabilities. All key data center functions run as software on the hypervisor in a tightly integrated software layer, delivering services that were previously provided via hardware through software.

"Works well and reliable"

4/5

What do you like best about VMware HCI Software?

This software has been reliable for daily use out of any location. It has never just closed out in the middle of working on something. I am able to access all needs through the software and the agency is able to monitor and place safety precautions into the software to keep the information safe. Utilizing VMware for obtaining and documenting client notes provides the agency with confidence that client information is safe. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about VMware HCI Software?

What i have found the most challenging is using Zoom or other virtual meeting options through VMware. The video doesn't come through clear and the audio it's great. Everyone at the agency uses their home server to connect for virtual meetings. Being able to remain in VMware while in a zoom meeting would be more helpful then having to go back and forth. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is VMware HCI Software solving and how is that benefiting you?

Considering we are in the middle of a pandemic and many have been forced to work remotely, a reliable software system that keeps information safe and protected is critical. The availability to work remotely on a reliable server has proven to be one of the most positive things we have encountered thus far. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Solid tool for VPN use"

4/5

What do you like best about VMware HCI Software?

Connects me with a remote computer to handle all of my work related programs. This simplifies the process of troubleshooting system problems because it means that my office has physical custody of the machine I"m running on which would remove the need to bring my computer to the office for troubleshooting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about VMware HCI Software?

Since our company runs a couple of programs on the local computer and the rest through VMware it makes it difficult to take advantage of the ability to run VMware accross 2 monitors. Also the clipboard will not work between vmware and the local PC Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering VMware HCI Software:

This is a quality product and it works well for what our company uses it for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is VMware HCI Software solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are evaluating better ways to connect our remote agents to our core systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
