    LOLOL

    All of the VCDXs that Nutanix employees are nothing more then Paid whores turning tricks. They are truly the used car salesmen of the market right now. Their products are getting buggier and buggier with every release and they are over promising more and more.

    I know this industry is built on selling futures, but when you need to hire 8 VCDXs that pure job is to polish that turd and to sit in front of their command stations all day at home flooding all of social media with their Nutanix FUD, you probely have a crap product.
