The web client really sucks. It is painfully slow completing day to day tasks for large vcenter installs. We had to re-do our management net security policy just to appease vmware too since we had forbade Flash on those systems. It's even more of a pain if you're using third party products that were written for the desktop client, such as the EMC PowerPath and Storage Viewer plugins. We have a constantly changing environment and it's really annoying to have to flip between the two for various tasks, but it's even more frustrating when you are clicking away in desktop client and then go back to the web client and you have to wait a few seconds for clicks to do anything, or you have to refresh the whole screen because the guest that you know is powered off won't show you the menu options that it should for a powered off guest, etc. Did I say I hate the web interface? lol
