Virtualisation Software

I don't find anything that could dislike me this software. It's great I love it. But no wait there is nothing bad really for me is amazing and very usefull. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

VirtualBox is easy, and faster to make test about an operating system, server or whatever you need, from develop to security, everything you need to make on a different operating system you can try before you deploy it and low cost to make the test, because when we test on a server, we use disk space, memory and proccesor. This make the configuration error show it on the testing role and not on the productive area. You can make the test for a software if work on your machine if it is compatible like migratin from Windows 7 to Windows 10 before migrating all the users in the company. Or if you have a service on a server and want to migrate from Debian 6 for example to Debian 10, you can test it on you own device, and once it is tested and give the green, you can give that virtual disk to implement on the productive server.

I can make test for a server on Windows, Ubuntu and Centos without having to buy or use the physical server. Once it is configurated, I move the virtualmachine to the host they will live and have all the configuration I tested before. The security team implements security operating systems on her machines and test some troubles we have on the final host. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

An important section is missing in manuals: how to install the program/software so it is shown on all desktops for all cloud computer users, so all of them have access to one program sharing just one database file. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

the best choice considering cost, speed, and simplicity of use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We moved the desktop software to the cloud. Multiple users can use it outside of the office. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Anything that relies on hardware is a big no go, running BitLocker on Fusion works but keeps my laptop like a big grill since it relies on hardware acceleration that for obvious reasons isn't available in a Virtual Machine. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The time saved by using Fusion is well worth the license price Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Occasionally, when starting, the workspace will time out before launching. This used to happen more frequently, but still happens time to time. There is no way to update manually that I know of. It is slightly slow to launch as well, but that's may be due to my organization's encryption requirements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Citrix is a great method of providing remote electronic medical record access during the age of telehealth. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have always used Citrix Receiver to work on patient charts from home. However, when the COVID-19 pandemic began, I needed to conduct telehealth appointments from home. That was a true test of Citrix's 24/7 reliability to make sure no technical issue interfered with patient care, and it didn't let me down. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hardware specifications of the VDI machines is limited to the pre-built vms offered by Azure. Some more advanced tasks like resizing the OS drive on an already deployed VM cannot be done using the Control Panel and must be done by the support staff. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We were getting results of poor performance for remote workers on our aging, on-premise VDI platform. Moving to Workspot has virtually elimiated all VDI performance troubleshooting requests and has also allowed our team to focus on providing end-user support instead of monitoring and maintaining an on-premise VDI platform.

The connectivity issues that we sometimes experience can sometimes give a headache. When the VDI server is down we are unable to log into our work desktops and unfortunately we lose money when this happens. VDI would work better if they were able to manage their connectivity logs better and have a good connection all the time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ability to enable employees to access a single desktop from many different places. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Many problems that we try to come together to resolve are the connectivity issues that we sometimes experience. VDI has several benefits that companies will win from such as the combination of providing anywhere access to data and applications while securing and managing multiple devices. With VDI, the IT department has the servers in their own data centers or their own server closet, versus with DaaS where the service provider is hosting everything. Once you centralize computing, you become dependent on high-availability infrastructure, redundant equipment, network, and the staffing requirements to keep things running.

There can be complications and nuances that require strict attention to the details prior to the conversion, if not it could fail. Conversion has its limitations, especially with domain controllers Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Pay attention to the details, make use of the community, there is a lot of knowledge out there and people help you make a successful conversion. I am going to convert a domain controller and the community knowledge was invaluable Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We have been able to maintain several legacy servers by converting them to Virtual, allowing us to realize savings in licensing costs and improving reliability of hardware Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would love if the reboot schedule within the tool was improved. For 24/7 operations, it is not adequate. It would be better if we could tag certain machines to reboot on a given day and to have them drain over an entire day rather than within the timeframe of the reboot.

Adding Machines to Delivery Groups is frustrating. Please allow us to select the machines we want to add from the UI rather than auto adding the next available machine in numeric\alphabetical order.

The metrics in Citrix Director are not reliable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops is still best in breed. If you require published applications, it is by far and away the best solution and in my experience most users in an organization can work fine with published apps and don't need a full desktop. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes it gets disconnected automatically when the network is stable and I have to login again. It takes time. Also, sometimes it lags if the client's network is weak. Some time due to server problem authentication fails and won't be able to reconnect and it takes too long. For using Amazon workspace your system should have good RAM memory and disc space. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Amazon workspace is good and light-weighted software that helps to get connected with your client without installing any VPN. It is a great product offered by Amazon. It is a free product and easy to use. It has features to restart your VDI and other settings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I connect my client's network using it as a VDI and access and work within the client's network so it helps in privacy and protecting the data. Working on VDI keeps client's data secured and it complies with their privacy. It is fast than other connection methods and won't take much knowledge to use.

I do not have any problem with the Horizon system, it seems very effective and easy to use, it can improve certain points such as memory as it consumes a lot of space in the computer because it is in the background as well as the consumption of RAM memory is massive because we have to maintain a virtual machine, they are points that can be optimized. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I recommend it because it works it gives good results, it is obvious how we can use any software without damaging our computer, in addition to this it is incredible how I can enter a new operating system every time I need a new virtual machine, the service is free and it works. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The service has worked amazingly we have not had any kind of problem, Horizon has solved a lot of problems because it is much easier to be able to test programming service software without having to harm our main network because anything that is it is in the virtual machine it can automatically be deleted and started or as well as format the machine just like a normal pc, it is incredible.

There’s not much that I don’t dislike with Parallels, at first it seemed a bit confusing but now it’s so easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some business problems that I am solving with Parallels would be any work related issues that arises when I’m not in the office such as reservations systems issues that need to be solved so I can connect remotely and fix anything that needs to be fixed. The benefits of having Parallels when my works network is down is amazing. I can continue working with ease by connecting to the airports wifi and using Parallels Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is necessary to have technical experience, the learning curve is very long, I have required to call support to give me a hand with the configurations, it is not a simple software and you need support help to install and adapt it, in order to understand the system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

If you have a technical experience or someone who can guide you with this platform, I would recommend it otherwise, since it is not so easy to learn, it requires a lot of time.

I recommend virtual machines and web systems in order to improve our page and give favorable results in this way we are happy, I recommend them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I can be more flexible with my work since it allows me to automate the machines and focus on the time saved in other tasks that require it, such as in the development of my WEB pages, in addition to the tools that allow editing in order to offer an automated website and attract new users and sales, I like the system and effective tools, nothing simple but useful.

I would say that how complex your initial configuration can be, that is what I like least since at first it was tedious to carry out the configuration, but in the end everything worked as expected. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The benefits that we obtained when implementing this tool were to be able to have control of the applications provided to the users as well as the versions and at the same time forget about the hardware requirements and the compactness of the system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
