## Description

vSphere Mobile Client enables administrators to monitor and manage vSphere infrastructure directly from a mobile device (smartphone or tablet). 
You can find more details about it at https://flings.vmware.com/vsphere-mobile-client.

Using the client, administrators can log in to a vCenter Server and manage and monitor virtual machines, hosts and clusters. Long running tasks can also be monitored, receiving push notification upon completion.

vSphere Mobile Client brings the following capabilities to vSphere administrators on the go:
Virtual machine list with overview on resource consumption and VM details. From the VM list the user can enter the VM console or see more detailed information on the VM such as events, performance charts and also execute quick actions.
ESXi host list with overview on resource consumption and some host details like host state and uptime. From there the user can see the host details page with events and performance charts included.
Cluster list with an overview of the cluster resource consumption and configuration overview (e.g. DRS, HA and number of migrations).
Task monitoring - subscribe to any running task and receive a notification on your mobile device upon task completion, even when your device is in-active or you have another application running on the foreground.
Performance charts allow to monitor the resource usage in real time or a day, week, month or year back. Counters include CPU, Memory, Storage and Network.

NOTE: The VMware vSphere Mobile Client application has been tested on vCenter server version 6.0 (and above). Access to vSphere infrastructure may require a secure access method such as VPN on a mobile device. Contact your IT department for further assistance if needed.
This is a tech preview release and as such it only has a limited subset of the intended functionality. As we release updates with new features regularly, we are looking for feedback on what features you would like to see in the application.

## Rankings

## Review summary

Reviewers praise the official, clean, and lightweight VMware mobile client with dashboards, VM stats, and task notifications, but highlight recurring issues: lack of console access (CAD), limited VM management (power on/off), stability problems (white screens/crashes), and awkward touch controls requiring on-screen or external keyboards. Overall it’s a promising start that needs core features and reliability improvements.

### Pros

- Official VMware vSphere Mobile Client with ongoing development and updates.
- Clean, modern UI with a helpful overview/dashboard.
- Easy to use on iPad and other iOS devices; lightweight on-the-go access.
- Ability to view VMs and their performance stats/graphs.
- Push notifications for tasks on iPhone and Apple Watch.

### Cons

- No console access or inability to send CTRL-ALT-DEL to log into VMs; missing remote console capability.
- Instability: white screen on startup or after updates, crashes, and random errors.
- Limited VM management: cannot power on/off or suspend VMs; few management actions available.
- Subpar touch controls: requires on-screen keyboard for CAD/CTRL keys, making login and interactions awkward.
