Why now

Reduce dependence on a single vendor

Costs rose after the Broadcom acquisition

VMware licensing and operating costs have risen since the Broadcom acquisition.

Vendor dependence

A single technology vendor limits your flexibility and your options.

High licensing fees

Optimizing your virtualization setup helps you avoid higher licensing costs.
