    Many SMBs will walk away at next server refresh.

    VMware is walking dead.

    We’re currently testing Nutanix and Proxmox for smaller clients.

    Proxmox support is similar (~65%) in cost to VMware licensing, but it’s not likely to pull this sudden increase BS. Plus it’s capabilities are significant for SMB.

      I wouldn’t be afraid to use Proxmox for small and middle size business. It’s solid and based on solid, opensource tech. As long as people make sure they get paid, I’m sure they’ll get even better.

      Good on you for making sure your clients pay for support, that’s how opensource thrives.
