KVM is flexible, available at no cost, but not necessarily for the faint of heart...

What do you like best about the product?
I like that there's no licensing cost. I like the flexibility on tap. Overall with some technical familiarity you can deploy in [relative] confidence.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike the steep learning curve, the lack of commercial support, and the finicky nature of the older, less mature versions. Centralized management is not really fleshed out, even though things like WebVirtMgr can be configured. Maintenance can be tricky. Migration from one host to another isn't very straightforward either.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In areas where there's no virtualization budget but you need VMs, and can't or won't use VirtualBox or Xen, KVM is an option...
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I just read that Amazon is moving AWS away from Xen and towards KVM. That's huge news. I would imagine that it will only become better, more stable, and more fully featured with that kind of user base behind it, on top of the current base!

Great but lags

What do you like best about the product?
How fast it connects, plug in and it will pop out immediately!
What do you dislike about the product?
How it lags, some color pixels will turn and slows down the program
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Connecting with servers such like HP and ZT models. No benefits!

Great solution for group computation

  • November 01, 2016

What do you like best about the product?
It has an easy to operate interface, and it can be installed on many machines.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not everyone has intuition for linux and this tends to lead to a high learning curve.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It solves the need for united computation. It has realized such. This is to run particular software that is specifically run off the command line.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is a safe and reliable operating system and it runs smoothly on many machines. The only downside is the learning curve.
