RHV has the following advantages:
  • They have relatively cheaper subscriptions compared to others.
  • With the future going to Openstack and containerization migrating to KVM-based virtualization will be easier to migrate to future products.

Chose Red Hat Virtualization (RHV)
RHEV offers a decent GUI and many management features, such as an API.
Chose Red Hat Virtualization (RHV)
We use them both, as one is not better than the other at all facets required. There is still a need to use both products, as we have not fully switched to RHEV due to Vsphere still having an edge over them with edits available to the systems while they are operational or they …
Chose Red Hat Virtualization (RHV)
VMware ESXi is a more mature technology, as it has been around for a longer period of time. However, automating ESXi installations requires hacking OEM media and an intense amount of knowledge of how ESXi operates under the hood. The WebUI and associated functionality for ESXi …
Chose Red Hat Virtualization (RHV)
Pretty much Open Source sums it up.

RHEV is more stable than ovirt but less capability. Much easier to automate than esx
Vagon Teams
Chose Vagon Teams
I have used other virtual desktops including Google Cloud desktops, Paperspace, and Microsoft Azure desktops. Vagon was easier to use but it was terrible service and experience.

Likelihood to Recommend
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.

Cons
  • Documentation of RHEV needs more improvement.

  • To start with, Vagon should respond to support emails.
  • Vagon should stop its predatory practices of forcing the high-tier plan on the customer and locking them into that, then ignoring support emails about it.
