Braintree, MA – [March 31, 2025] – VMware’s announcement of increased minimum core requirements is set to significantly impact SMB and mid-market businesses, signaling a strategic shift toward enterprise clients. With pricing adjustments that may strain IT budgets, organizations must now evaluate their options to maintain cost-effective, high-performance virtualization.
IntraSystems is stepping up to provide businesses with strategic guidance and alternative solutions. Rather than engaging in pricing battles, we are focused on empowering our clients with robust, cost-effective virtualization options, including Nutanix AHV (Acropolis Hypervisor), Microsoft Hyper-V, and Citrix Hypervisor —all proven platforms that align with business needs without excessive licensing fees.
“As VMware shifts focus away from SMB and mid-market clients, we recognize the need for strategic planning,” said Paul Kinze, CEO at IntraSystems. “Our advisory team is ready to help businesses make informed decisions and transition seamlessly to alternative virtualization platforms that offer reliability, scalability, and cost efficiency.”
Businesses impacted by these changes can schedule a consultation with IntraSystems’ advisory team to review their options and develop a virtualization strategy that aligns with their goals.
