Likelihood to Recommend	No answers on this topic	Red Hat Virtualization is suitable for small implementation and hosting VMs. However, when you start asking for additional features or enhancements, the engineering team is not the flexible as other engineering teams in Red Hat. It is very likely they will not accept adding features or in the best case. They wouldn't commit to a plan when it is possible to be available. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Pros	No answers on this topic	RHV issues/bugs can be reported via Bugzilla to RH support. The service is great and typically responds soon.
