    It is the point, this is exactly what Broadcom does.

      Yup, this is on form for them. This isn’t the first product they’ve done it to and surely won’t be the last.

      The moment the news broke we started migration planning, a short while later their new pricing came through and immediately justified the project spend. Tens of thousands of VMs migrated, a ton of labour, and even some hardware refreshes thrown in - and still cheaper than renewing, by a looong shot.

      Shame, I liked VMware.

        What platform your company (I assume) migrated to?
