Being on the other side of the Earth can present challenges and timings for meetings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Heropa:

This service solves a lot of virtual machine needs. Management and setup of the environments in your system can take a significant amount of time to develop and tweak depending on what your intended uses are. For our needs, development, updating and management is a significant portion of my duties. But Jason and his team are always helful and finding new ways to make my job easier. These guys a great to work with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Heropa?

Heropa has been very responsive to our support questions as we integrate their product into our training platform. When improvements to their platform are identified, they are happy to discuss making those improvements and providing a better experience for us and our customers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Heropa?

So far, we have been able to create all of the learning environments we need for our training program, but there is a learning curve. I would love to see their documentation improve. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Heropa solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are working with Heropa on self-deployed training environments. Being able to create and test these environments and know that each customer is getting an exact clone of it has helped our customers learn and reduced the number of support tickets we receive about lab environments.

What do you like best about Heropa?

Happy with the flexibility the Heropa lab environment provided the students. The management tool allows you to reset or extend a lab for the students, view their workspace to help with troubleshooting.

The students are happy as the Server environment provides them with a sandbox to practice what they are learning and complete assessments from the comfort of their home. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Heropa?

Initial setup time to ensure the environment meets the requirements of the assessment conditions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Heropa solving and how is that benefiting you?

Heropa provided our Diploma students with an environment that allowed them to build and configure domains and application infrastructure.

This removed the need for the students to upgrade their PCs to complete assessments or incorrectly configuring the virtual environment leading to corrupt personal OS and computers.

The environment has also improved the time it takes students to complete assessments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Heropa?

The responsive and dedicated staff, alongside robust but nimble technology. For people who need to be able to spin up detailed environments quickly and easily, Heropa provides a product that dramatically reduces the technical overheads of managing your own IaaS instance. Everything from Licensing to provisioning instances is "IaaS on easy mode." Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Heropa?

The only possible downside I could see is a high barrier to entry, however it is not an issue with my business as we were ready to heavily invest. Not to say the platform is too expensive, just that a lower tier could be less cost prohibitive for smaller businesses Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Heropa:

Be in touch with your local representative for a demonstration and for a trial. You will quickly realise that Heropa is an excellent option. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Heropa solving and how is that benefiting you?

My company needed to create a massively saleable platform to enable our customers to conduct detailed product proofs of concepts, training environments and realistic demo environments. We also needed to be able to create these with short notice to give to our customers without having to do a long platform induction (required if we were to simply use AWS or similar). We're also able to build environments and share them our customers with a simple link alongside relevant social media posts as another simple example. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Heropa?

Several things:

1. The ability to view in real time what users are doing in their labs and quickly jump in to assist if needed.

2. Users don't need to install anything on their computers or configure any special network access. An up to date browser is all that's required to be able to remote access Linux & Windows VMs.

3. We deploy complex environments with several VMs and interconnecting private networks. Setting this up in Heropa was very quick and easy.

4. The fact that Heropa provides 24/7 support really helps out in the rare situations where something isn't working.

5. Heropa is completely encompassed into our brand. Users don't know what platform they're using and access is using a corporate domain name. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Heropa?

1. I would like more documentation for released features and a clear road-map of what's expected in the future.

2. Some bite-sized video training would be helpful to direct first time users on how to use their lab workspace. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Heropa:

I would say that adopting Heropa has made my life a lot easier. Heropa automates many many operations that I would otherwise need to manually operate and overlays it all with a great UI and superb user experience.

I highly recommend considering this platform for instructor-led or self-paced training courses that benefit from hands-on access to systems and applications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Heropa solving and how is that benefiting you?

1. Heropa makes it easy to deliver hands-on training for customer around the world, regardless of their location and time zone.

2. Using Heropa has SIGNIFICANTLY reduced the management overhead required by setting up and tearing down training environments.

3. We train on a complex product that requires custom software installations and network configurations. Heropa virtually removed all the technical barriers that we previously experiences, enabling us to focus on content and not on logistics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Heropa?

We have been customer with HEROPA over two and half years and we really appreciate great support from HEROPA guys. Their services are exactly what we have been looking for and I think they have a really great product which is really realiable. They are constantly adding new features in their product, sometimes based on our input. Almost instant support is provided in case of any issues.

Features we like:

- ability to view all users virtual desktops during a training delivery

- easy setup of virtual environent

- avoidance of any firewall issues for user accesing HEROPA environment Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Heropa?

I can not think of anything that we would dislike. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Heropa solving and how is that benefiting you?

Our biggest challenge was to find a product which provides "one click" solution for creating virtual environments, which is exacly what HEROPA offers. We at NEOOPS provide training environments for our customers using HEROPA product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Heropa?

The general ability to self manage all aspects of the the events we run along with the flexibility to spin up instances on demand without the need to raise support ticket or request to our IT team cannot be understated enough. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Heropa?

We were a heavy user of what were beta features. There for some features were not as stable as we had come to rely on but these were resolved and event enhanced based on our needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Heropa:

Work with the team at Heropa to see what tools they have meet your business needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Heropa solving and how is that benefiting you?

Delivering engaging, host led interactive hands on digital workshops as opposed to what we used to deliver via trade shows or other events. To allow our prospects to login to a fully featured environment from anywhere without any technical skills or install all from just their browser is just wonderful!

What do you like best about Heropa?

I've had the pleasure of working a couple of support tickets with your support engineers and they have been nothing but outstanding to work with.

I'd like to take a moment to recognize Jason from the support team who was amazing to work with but went above and beyond even a month after my ticket was closed to ask about an upload that was broken and to see if I needed assistance. This really surprised me as you very rarely see this kind of proactiveness from vendors.

If all of the Heropa staff have the same characteristics as Jason, you guys have nothing to worry about! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Heropa?

I wish I had something to dislike. You guys are awesome! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Heropa solving and how is that benefiting you?

SentinelOne is a Cyber Security vendor that I work for. For me as an SE, we typically work with many potential customers who may not have the environment to spin up their own VM's for testing. This is where Heropa steps in and is able to help us quickly build out environments for our PoC customers so they can test our solution.

I created the support ticket because I wasn't able to locate certain images that I needed for a PoC. Jason assisted us with all of the images we needed and much more! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about Heropa?

Upskilled has been a customer of Heropa for over five years now and our experience has been great. The platform is reliable and their support is quite. Heropa platform integrates with our LMS so students can easily login to their required labs and complete required tasks.

One functionality that Heropa offers which is important for Upskilled is the possibility to offer Hyper-V nested virtualization, which enables our learners to access a variety of labs and gives us the flexibly to add more labs as require. Our students can get access to Hyper-V VMs from our Moodle LMS platform to perform advanced networking tasks and install a server's features and functions such as DHCP and DNS. We can also customize our labs to fulfil specific requirements and to map different qualifications performance criterias and elements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Heropa?

I wish they had a better reporting function to enable us reliable information about students completion rates, time spent in each lab and other relevant data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Heropa:

Heropa is a good and reliable product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Heropa solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have solved a number of problems with Heropa's staff and the platform is quite stable. We have achieved good results and improved over all performance. Our students are quite satisficed with this alternative, since they are able to complete practical labs online without the need to attend physical IT labs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
