Hello Kevin,
I'd give another "+1" for Proxmox Virtual Environment (PVE) [1] as
drop-in replacement for your VMware!
I'm using several Proxmox-setups (mainly PVE) in different
environments and I'm just happy with it!!!
It supports full virtualization through KVM, Linux-containers through
LXC, it's support is good and has a top price-performance ratio, the
web-ui is smooth and functional, you can also build clusters e.g. with
CEPH-storage.
It integrates very well with the Proxmox Backup Server (PBS) [2] and
the Proxmox Mail Gateway (PMG) [3]
You can at least give it a try, since you can download and install the
community edition of the PVE, PBS and PMG for free [4]
PVE community edition differs from the "pro" variants that is ha no
access to the enterprise repository and no professional support, just
community support through the forum [5].
Christoph.
P.S.: I'm not affiliated with Proxmox in any way, but I'm a happy user
spreading the word and an Open Source Enthusiast :-)
