VCOPS Custom UI vs. Vsphere UI

Hello Floks,

It's my first question in VMware communities, i hope i can get clear answer for my question.

As you know in VCenter Operations Manager there is Custom User interface and the Vsphere default user interface, until now i can't find out why the Custom user interface exists and when should i use it.

thanks

Hi sokandetta,

Welcome to the community.


The question is what can't be done in vCOPS Custom UI.

Custom UI is where you get all the dashboarding capabilities. If you have any third party configurations that you have to do or integrate third party applications Custom UI is the place.

You can configure Adapters for vCOPS in Custom UI. You can have custom widgets in custom ui which can be configured for all the resources you have in your datacenter. You can import your AD users into custom ui and share the dashboards that they are entitled for.

These are just some of its capabilities. the things you can do in custom ui is immense.

All in all custom ui is the best thing in vCOPS.
