BlueBear Kodiak - Continued

September 30th, 2008

Duncan Epping over at Yellow Bricks has done a great review of Bluebear Kodiak which I blogged about last week.  The general impression is that it looks nice but is obviously still in Beta and therefore lacks a number of features that would most likely make the final version.  Interestingly someone has commented on the article indicating that because Bluebear Kodiak uses the SDK it’s limited to read only operations with the free version of ESX 3.5i.  If that is the case that could be bad news for what I saw as one of it’s main uses,  centralised management without having to invest in Virtual Center.

You can read the full review by following this link.

    Excellent news! Thanks for clarifying that for everyone

    Even better that we heard it from the dictator bear himself.

    I recieved my licence key for the beta this morning from a friend and I will be taking a closer look running it against an ESX 3.5i box.

    Any chance to get an invite to Kodiak? Would love to try the software from my mac. Am trying to get rid of all windows machinces, but the only thing holding me back for shutting down the last one is management of my ESXI server.

    please send invite to anders.pedersen at me.com

    Thanks :-)
  • Our most recent Development builds are working great with full support for the free version of ESXi.

    We'll certainly check into any concerns... However...
