A new HTML5-based web client for vSphere is in development and will probably be released with vSphere 6.5. But: The old, Flash-based web client will still be around in 6.5. And the older versions, like vSphere 5.5 are still widely used (because 6.0 has been riddled with serious and desastrous bugs, even 1.5 years after relase). As a vSphere Admin myself I will stick to vSphere 5.5 for the forseeable future, because I want to sleep at night and not be worrying about what might break right now because of the instability of 6.0 and I know of countless others who will do the same. Looking at http://www.virten.net/vmware/product-end-of-support-countdown/ vSphere 5.5 is supported until September 2018 and vSphere 6.0 is supported until March 2020, so you can expect the need for Flash until at least then. And if the integration of 3rd-party solutions into the new HTML5 client is problematic, then you might as well wait until 2023 to finally get rid of Flash. Yes, that is 7 years from now.
