I played around with Hyper-V Server a bit and wasn't real thrilled with it. That was a couple years ago now though.
I switched to XCP-ng about a year ago after Citrix crippled XenServer. Installed it right over the top on a couple nodes and had zero issues. All the bells and whistles back without the cost. XenOrchestra installed from sources does more than enough for me. XenOrchestra updater/installer project on GitHub makes it stupid simple.
