    We had VMware, new office I told them we are shifting to Proxmox. The licensing just wasn’t worth it compared, especially with the features we use as a small enterprise client.

    This just confirms the decision was the right one for us too.

    I have to wonder how many are out there doing the same and now getting a support license, hopefully a good amount to give the team some revenue to keep things moving well on their end.

      At my last place we had a decked out vmware. SAN, HA, hot migration. When I came to he new place I brought the mindset with me, but you have to need it to make it worth it.

      Yeah that support license is solid, especially since most of us don’t actually call them with any questions :)

      Sooner or later they’ll probably make it a pay / community duality like everything else, but for the moment, it’s the absolute best
