VMware vs. Nutanix: how to reduce costs and simplify your IT infrastructure

Companies around the world are re-evaluating their IT budgets due to the significant increase in VMware licensing costs. The replacement of perpetual licenses with a subscription model has had a significant impact on the budget of many organizations. This increase puts IT managers in a dilemma: how to maintain innovation without compromising the budget?

The growing demand for application modernization, artificial intelligence, cloud computing, server virtualization, and multicloud platforms makes the reduction of operational costs essential for competitiveness. In this scenario, Nutanix emerges as the best alternative, eliminating the dependence on expensive licenses and offering a software-based hyperconverged infrastructure that reduces costs and simplifies IT management.

The Challenges of the New VMware Licensing Model

The recent change in VMware’s licensing policy has brought significant challenges for companies:

  • Significant Cost Increase: With the end of perpetual licenses, companies now face constant renewals, which can significantly impact the IT budget.
  • Lack of Flexibility: The subscription model limits scalability and makes the adoption of hybrid and multicloud strategies difficult.
  • Complex and Bureaucratic Management: Managing virtualization licenses requires more time and specialized teams, increasing operational costs.

With these challenges, many companies are seeking more economical, flexible, and efficient alternatives for virtualization, cloud storage, and IT infrastructure management.
