I never hear anyone say they are using Hyper-V, I assume that is not even in 
the running unless you are a hardcore Microsoft shop or want to host in the 
Azure cloud?

Proxmox for sure. I've used Proxmox for 10+ years and VMWare for probably 8 
years. I'm phasing out VMWare in favor of Proxmox.

I have decided I needed to get on the VM train. I know, I am only 15 years 
behind. Honestly, till now I haven't had a compelling reason.

 

I want something that will at least do some monitoring of VM's, backups, 
snapshots, etc. Managed upgrading would be great but not as big a priority for 
me (at least I don't think so).

 

Since I don't know what I don't know, I am asking the experienced crowd.

 

It seems the two real choices are VMWare and Zen. Are there others? Commercial 
support seems nice, is it worth paying for? What I will run is important for 
sure. 

 

I spent a few hours last night and I more confused now than when I started.
