> **Kenidra** | *18 December 2025* | Computer & Network Security | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I was able to dial the customers and hear them clearly. I was also able to pull up the customers accounts and help them with their concerns.
> 
> **Cons**: At first, I couldn't login with my credentials. My supervisor had to get them reset so that I could access the system.
>

### "Reliable Cloud Monitoring with Strong Visibility and Alerting" — 5.0/5

> **Ansuman** | *14 August 2026* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It provides strong visibility into cloud and infrastructure environments. The monitoring dashboards make it easier to track system performance, resource utilization, and overall environment health. I particularly liked the alerting capabilities, which help identify potential issues before they become major problems.
> 
> **Cons**: The platform can feel complex for new users, and getting the most out of the available features requires some technical knowledge. Configuration and customization can also take time, particularly in larger environments.
> 
> Overall, VMware Aria is a robust platform for monitoring and managing cloud infrastructure. It provides good visibility, useful dashboards, and reliable alerting capabilities. While there is a learning curve and implementation can require technical expertise, it is a valuable solution for organizations managing complex IT environments.

-----

### "Control Control Control" — 5.0/5

> **Gerson** | *16 January 2018* | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: vCenter Configuration Manager was born, raised and integrated with vSphere. For that reason delivers impressive capabilities that support hardening the VMware Infrastructure.  The family of products that vCenter Configuration Manager support are VMware ESX, ESXi, vCenter, vCloud Director and VMware vCloud Networking and Security. &#13;&#10;Patchin VM templates and offline VMs is also possible using this product. &#13;&#10;vCenter Configuration Manager supports configuration management across virtual and physical servers and more..  across VMware Infrastructure and across multiple OS including Windows, Linux and Windows.
> 
> **Cons**: nothing bad, if you want the best compatibility with VMware products, this is it. There are other HyperVisor platforms out there, however, this software is native for VMWare, that counts.
> 
> Built on VMware technology.  Built-in, out-of-the-box compliance toolkits developed by VMware's Center.
