Microsoft Virtual Server Reviews

Security, integration, and interface are the best features of Microsoft Virtual Server.

Microsoft Virtual Server has a lot of features like recording manager or failover, which need to be developed since such areas have shortcomings where improvements are required.

The pricing and scalability are areas of the product with shortcomings where improvements are required.

My company has not faced any issues with the solution's technical support. I rate the technical support an eight out of ten.

Positive

I rate the product's initial setup phase a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is difficult and ten is easy.

Compared to the other products in the market, I believe that the prices of Microsoft Virtual Server are on the higher side.

Speaking about how Microsoft Virtual Server has streamlined the consolidation efforts for our company's clients, I would say that my company deals in a few projects involving Microsoft Virtual Server and Hyper-V. My company works with projects involving products like VMware or Nutanix.

The product has helped my company's customers improve the testing workflow.

The most beneficial part of the product to deal with the virtualization part stems from the ability it provides to deal with the application virtualization part and in the consolidation of applications on Microsoft Virtual Server while providing a single dashboard that gives a view of the complete workload.

My company has experienced some scalability issues with Microsoft Virtual Server as our company's clients' operations grew, especially in the area of licensing, which doesn't come as a built-in component in the virtualization card.

I rate the overall product a seven out of ten.

We use Microsoft Virtual Server to run and manage our ERP.

Microsoft Virtual Server is a highly scalable solution.

The solution’s stability could be improved.

I have been using Microsoft Virtual Server for many years.

I rate Microsoft Virtual Server a seven out of ten for stability.

Around 3,000 users are using Microsoft Virtual Server in our organization.

I rate Microsoft Virtual Server ten out of ten for scalability.

The solution’s technical support team has a fast response time.

Microsoft Virtual Server is an expensive solution.

I would recommend Microsoft Virtual Server to other users.

Overall, I rate Microsoft Virtual Server a nine out of ten.

In my organization, we have three physical servers running Windows Server 2015. We are also using Hyper-V to create virtual servers on these physical servers. We currently have seven virtual servers running on these three physical servers. These virtual servers are running properly and we have not had any issues with them. One of the advantages of using virtual servers is that we can back up a VM and restore it to any physical server in one to two hours.

Microsoft Virtual Server is stable. There is no issue there. Our customers are running two virtual terminal servers, one ERP server, and one antivirus server. All four servers are running properly, and a maximum of 60 users can log in.

The solution should be more user-friendly and cheaper. It will be charged through databases, which means that when I use the server, I will be charged, but when I don't use the server, I won't be charged. To use a physical server, you need to purchase one at a certain price. After three years, you need to purchase AMC for the server which is a recurring cost. Additionally, there are electricity and maintenance costs. Virtual servers in the cloud can be cheaper than physical servers, especially if the monthly cost is lower. Therefore, many clients and organizations will choose to use virtual servers.

I have been using Microsoft Virtual Server for ten years.

The product is stable.

The product is not scalable. We have 60 primary users using this solution. Upon migration, it will be 100.

The initial setup is easy. To require a certain specification of the server, we need to clear the cloud first. We need at least a six-core server for our backup process. A Cisco server with 48GB of primary storage and two 1TB SSDs is sufficient for our needs for ERP. After six months, if the end of support is reached, we will move to our turn server and use the data server. The first step will be server migration, then it will be the terminal server migration.

The solution has a yearly license. If we switch to a yearly subscription plan for Microsoft Virtual Server, it would be cheaper in the long run. The price per month would be higher, but the overall cost for the year would be lower.

We want to move our ERP server to the cloud. We need to prepare our users and the ERP system itself, as well as develop a digital plan. We have two partners that we need to collaborate with, and we need to discuss the move with them. We believe that we can complete the migration within this year, and we plan to be fully operational in the cloud by January 2024. Around four technical staff is enough for maintenance. If a client is having a problem, they need to be able to contact the vendor (the end user) in order to provide support. Microsoft should have a portal or make it easy for customers to contact them if they are having any technical issues or addressing problems. Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

Our use cases are normal. It's a virtual machine. We have virtual machines for our application servers, for many application servers. So we use it just to reduce the cost of having new physical machines. That is the main benefit of virtualization in a GUI.

The most valuable feature is the stability of the solution. 

I would like to see an updated version of Microsoft Virtual Server that supports Linux.

We recently updated their special machines to the Linux version of Cybervisor, and we are also using VMware and Dell DXL. These platforms are more efficient than Microsoft Virtual Server, and we no longer carry on with Microsoft.

In the future release, I would like to see more automation. Moreover, improvements related to recovery could be beneficial.

I have used Microsoft Virtual Hyper-V for about six or seven years right now. 

The solution is very stable. We haven't had any critical issues. I don't think I have faced anything critical yet.

It is a scalable solution. There are about 200 end users using this solution. 

The customer service and support are very fast and efficient. 

The initial setup is very easy. It took around three to four hours to deploy the solution. 

We have one manager and two admins for the maintenance of the solution.

We just purchased our licenses from Microsoft, and it hasn't been an issue.

Overall, I would rate the solution a nine out of ten. It is a good product. It's very effective. Between Microsoft and VMware, Microsoft is cheaper than VMware. It doesn't have the same performance issue, but it will be enough for any small business.

We are a bookmaking firm. The solution is quite good for collaboration across multiple teams.

The product is reliable.

The product must provide better data analytics.

I have been using the solution for 15 years.

The tool is stable and accessible. It’s a robust and reliable solution.

The tool is scalable. We have 15 users. We use it every minute of the day.

The initial setup is simple. It is a cloud solution. Our operating system is server-based. To deploy the tool, we spoke to our software provider and linked up with a company that offers hosting services to deploy it on the cloud.

A third-party vendor helped us implement the solution. They also help us with maintenance and support.

The product’s reliability and accessibility are valuable to us.

I will recommend the product to others. Overall, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.

We use Microsoft Virtual Server for its Hyper-V technology.

Virtual Server can assign RAM, CPU, and storage resources to virtual machines. This allows virtual machines to scale according to their needs.

There could be more security features included in the product.

We have been using Microsoft Virtual Server for eight years. We use version 2019 at present.

We have 1000 Microsoft Virtual Server users in our organization. We use it once a week. I rate its scalability a seven out of ten.

We use Microsoft Virtual Server to monitor user behavior on virtual machines. We can view incident reports using it.

The product helps us secure VMs from vulnerabilities in our systems like Sentinel. It indicates the threat via email notification. We are then able to resolve the issues as soon as possible.

The platform could provide more integration and stability.

It is a stable product.

We have 25 Microsoft Virtual Server users in our organization. We might increase the number of users to 40 in the current year, 2023. It is a scalable product.

I initially contacted Microsoft Virtual Server’s support team as we were in a learning phase. They were very cooperative and provided support on time.

I have worked with AWS services in virtual environments. It is very costly, and technical support services are difficult to find compared to Microsoft Virtual Server in our region. At the same time, Microsoft provides technical support on email and calls according to requirements.

The initial setup process is complicated compared to open-source solutions like Linux, which also provides a secure environment. We deploy the product on-premise and on the cloud.

I recommend Microsoft Virtual Server an eight out of ten.
