They still force you into a specific hardware organisation (hyperconverged, disks are on the compute nodes and storage is distributed) which doesn't make sense for everyone's workloads.

Also, at least a few years ago(hope it's not still the case), a lot of their services were a bunch of open source poorly stitched together with bash, and their poor abstraction over it was leaking heavily. Their APIs were also very poor (I mean, VMware's are objectively complete shit, but at least they cover almost everything; Nutanix had major gaps in API coverage).

Oh, and they're very expensive.
