I really must admit that HPE VM Essentials looks like an interesting virtualization target platform for our future onprem infrastructure environment. There is hope to finally move away from this Broadcom VMware debacle. Nutanix did not convince us as well, we used it several years apart from other VMware infrastructure environments and imo its also way too expensive, less mature and more complex than VMware.

Nevertheless a free Community Edition of HPE VM Essentials (lets say 10 workloads) might draw more attention to the product. See what happened to Veeam since they launched their Community Edition, imo it was a very wise decision from Veeam. So spread the word!

No need to mention that it is awesome news that Veeam has decided to fully support this remarkable new hypervisor environment!
