Horizon 8 Reviews

We don't have to pay for HyperFlex. The solution's speed gives a nice user experience. 

The majority of things in VMware Horizon can be done only in Windows and not in Linux. There are Linux customers who would like to use VMware Horizon's features. 

I have been working with the solution for five years. 

The solution is scalable and you need to add a load balancer to add desktops. Once it is configured, you can add as many desktops as you want to add. 

I would rate the solution's setup an eight or nine out of ten since it is easy. 

VMware Horizon is expensive and I would rate it an eight out of ten. 

The solution is useful for call centers and banks and I would rate it a nine out of ten. 

It is a powerful application platform for virtual isolation. 

The application delivery is it's most valuable feature. 

The support team's technicalities and the pricing of the solution need improvement. 

I have been using the solution for three years. 

It is a stable solution. I rate it a seven out of ten.

Horizon is a scalable solution and it depends on the hardware. Around 45 users use the solution.

I have an open ticket with VMware. I rate the support an eight out of ten. 

Positive

Horizon's initial setup is easy. Sometimes I can do the integration myself and sometimes I need an integrator. 

The solution is more expensive in comparison to Citrix but when comparing the technicalities VMware Horizon, is worth the money.

Between Citrix and Horizon, I would recommend Horizon for its management and availability.

I rate the overall solution a nine out of ten. 

We use the solution for remote desktops for a small number of users, but we do not use Citrix. Therefore, Horizon View is sufficient for us to publish applications or desktops for small services.

The solution has a lot of Visual Desktop's persistent and non-persistent desktops which publish the applications.

The integration could be improved. For example, there could be more integration and easier integration with products such as Okta and Duo. VMware Horizon View could be a multifactor authentication and authorization product, with more options for workflows, user assignments, and group assignments. Currently, it is complicated to configure a demo, so more integration would be beneficial.

I am currently using the solution.

The solution is stable.

The solution is scalable.

I give the solution an eight out of ten.

Horizon View is primarily used to consolidate networks against potential threats from outside.

Horizon View's best features are that it gives you more control over the PCs on your infrastructure, and it's specialized for banking environments.

I've been working with VMWare Horizon View for more than three years.

Compared to Citrix and Microsoft, I'd recommend Horizon View as the best on the market. I'd rate it eight out of ten.

Positive

I previously used Citrix VDI, but Horizon 7 is easier to manage and has GUIs for everything.

The initial setup is simple as there is lots of documentation available to help. However, it may be a little difficult for those with no experience.

I would give Horizon 7 a rating of ten out of ten.

Our customers are using this product on simple data and to access some applications. We are customers of VMware Horizon View. 

The app virtualizing is a great feature. The system developers use it to deliver apps to targeted staff. It basically reduces the server infrastructure resource. The solution provides good functionality.

The initial setup is a little complicated. 

I've been engaged with this solution for almost a year. 

The solution is stable, we've hardly had any problems. 

The solution is scalable and we're planning to scale up to 700 users. I think it will be easy. The infrastructure is hyperconverged so we don't expect any issues. We currently have a license for 300 users. 

Customer support is supplied by the implementer. Problems can generally be solved by a phone call. 

The initial setup is a little bit complex at the start and that's related to the migration of the current users to the client. The setup was a little easier in the latest version. The migration to our 315 clients took a couple of weeks. We have one person dedicated to monitoring the system. 

The licensing costs are quite high, we pay for a bundle. 

Customers need to know their requirements clearly and this will likely create a significant saving when it comes to working out a licensing model. 

I rate this solution 10 out of 10.
