It’s time to upgrade or to renew your VMware vSphere licenses. This decision is not easy for a few reasons such as:

Here are five reasons to switch from VMware to Red Hat Virtualization:
Reason | Red Hat Virtualization | VMware vSphere | |
1. User Portal | Included at no additional cost, allows users to self-service - create/delete/modify virtualization resources. | Requires vCloud at additional cost. | |
2. OpenStack Networking |
Integration with OpenStack Neutron and choice of partner networking solutions. | Requires NSX at additional cost. | |
3. OpenStack Cinder | Allows configuration of Ceph storage domains via OpenStack Cinder. | Requires vSAN. | |
4. Licensing | Subscription model includes product, all upgrades / versions, and technical support. | Requires vCenter license + support, vSphere License + support, and there may be license compatibility issues across versions. | |
5. Easy to Migrate | Migrate workloads from VMware to Red Hat Virtualization via a simple GUI. | No out-of-the-box migration options. |
