### Pros

"The security patches are deploying very fast to fix issues."

"The dashboard to see the performance to each host is very easy."

"Vmotion and the ability for VMs to move from one host to another are things I like."

### Cons

"The reporting is a weak feature to analyze and see the performance of each virtual machine."

"From a software perspective, for years VMWare servers become unmanaged if a storage admin removes even unused storage before an ESX host detaches it. "

"vCenter is on the more expensive tool, and running multiple vSphere servers, is almost impossible without the purchase of a vCenter license."
