I've been seeing a lot of doom and gloom about VMware. The cutting of services and licensing changes of the cost of core offerings are huge issues. Is anyone planning or budgeting to change to another hypervisor? If so what?

Proxmox is missing a lot of enterprise features. If you run a virtualized data center, it's really not going to cut it. OTOH, if you are a small operation with just a handful of virtual servers, it might be "good enough".

The obvious alternative was Hyper-V, but it looks like MS is already killing it to force people into Azure.

When you look at enterprise-level hypervisors, there really aren't a lot of options.

What enterprise features is it missing? The only problem I see is the limited support plans.
