      5Nine is really the leader and main player here. That's what I would use even if I had Windows 10 🙂

      Yeah I use that, never used the Hyper-V manager in windows 🙂

          Yeah 5Nine is essentially the only solution to consider here.

            Hyper-V Manager doesn't suck too badly in 2012 R2 -- at least to me.

              It's just a very basic solution that doesn't work wonderfully.

                Is "not sucking too badly" a good selling point? And 2012 R2 isn't cheap.

                  For me, it seems faster than 5nines a lot of times. Maybe just me. I've been saved by 5nines a few times though.

                    The interface seems faster? I've not used 5Nines enough to feel it lagging, I guess.

                      5nine Manager is nice, and I like the monitoring it includes in the interface as well.

                      But you can fully manage your Hyper-V environment in Hyper-V Manager and FCM together.

                      5nine Manager does have some nice built in bonuses though... (centralized through the 5nine manager, versus setting it up on each Hyper-V server via Event Viewer for example)

                      • logging
                      • alerting
                      • reporting
                      • file transfers
                      • a ton of other things (that are useful, that'd you actually use)

                      Check this out for a quick look:
