Pros

What can go wrong? It's the tried and true VMware, hosted in the cloud on AWS, without the on-prem infrastructure cost.

Cons

The setup process can be a little finicky getting started, but once it's rolling it's just as good as the real thing.

easy to use since it is detailed in the manual as well as video descriptions

Cons

AWS has the best ways to use costs/time in its tools, so it's easy to shut down systems during downtime.

Pros

VMware Cloud on AWS provides seamless integration between the customer's on-premises data center and the AWS Cloud. This feature makes On-Premise migrations super easy without having to worry about compatibility issues and complexities.

Cons

All the features provided by VMWare Cloud on AWS are great it also offers a lot of built-in functions but the cost can be very expensive when working with large workloads and also if we want to use some tools that are not supported by VMWare Cloud on AWS then it becomes a little challenging.

Pros

Si integra facilmente con molti dei servizi nativi offerti da aws come Dynamo DB, EC2, S3. Alta Scalabilità, gestione del disaster recovery. Apprezzo molto il supporto (in 3 diverse modalità) per effettuare la migrazione da data center locali in cloud perchè a volte è proprio la parte più problematica.

Cons

non ho i mente nessun aspetto negativo in particolare.

Overall exp. so far is good its like i have just started using this product service months back so nothing yet now.

Pros

Best thing is the support I got from AWS while migrating my infrastructure and also after migration we can easily start using services right on.The pricing is also not too high compared to on premises.

Cons

Its just that we need to think very carefully before moving vmware on aws and all its resources because things are to be then planned that way and support also need everything proper and prompt for further process.

Ease of use High performance Business improvement Features-tics Benefits of public and private cloud

Pros

Vmware cloud on aws is the feature or we can say the technology is developed to boos the client business totally. Its and integrations of the private and public cloud which offers you the features of the both aws and VMware on single platform lets consider the eg. You can host your services on 17 regions by using this platform or lets use the NSX DRs vSAN on AWS. This is totally helps to scale the uptime to zero . High availability of business. Very interesting and beneficial platform

Cons

I don't think we have an much cons on using the VMware on cloud but yes in the way of small scale organisation its quite less value for money
