Considered Both Products
SolusVM
Chose SolusVM
SolusVM is more reliable, robust, stable, and offers more flexible licensing. Very active support team and a futuristic user interface that our clients love.
vRealize Operations (discontinued)
Chose vRealize Operations (discontinued)
Much compatibility with our VMware Infrastructure.
Chose vRealize Operations (discontinued)
SCOM was quite overwhelming when we first set up a POC for it. There was just too much for one person to handle. With vROPs I can manage the product and provide the support needed for my environment. We also have a Solarwinds environment that provides us with a level of detail …
Chose vRealize Operations (discontinued)
We have not tried any other products yet however I hear that turbonomic is a big competitor.
Chose vRealize Operations (discontinued)
We are a VMware shop and need monitoring from VMware. Also, I am not the decision maker here. I believe because of being a VMware shop we choose VRO and also may be my company got a great deal. I like this product although there is a lot of stuff to improve.

SolusVM is best-suited to automate VPS services where your users can easily order, customize, manage and upgrade their virtual servers easily. It is less appropriate for managing a single server that does not need to virtualize a cluster of virtual servers.

With the introduction of API-based event alerts, there is no need for a proxy, which is a good option. Its ability to manage infra on a real-time basis is a good option that helps monitor, administer and troubleshoot virtual machines.

  • If we can integrate it with other products, then it will be quite useful. Integration with some network devices and storage devices would be useful.
  • It basically supports the system with big-size VM disks; it should be made available to support other devices and hardware as well.
  • They may also need to improve on complex configuration.
