        @jimmy9008 tbh I've not tested it for 3-4 yrs, but just found it bloated and always had issues remote managing it from laptop/desktop.

        Should really give it another go with 2016.

          3-4 years ago you had 5Nine available for free. So it was easier.

            5Nine still has a free version. I have used it recently. I had no AD, so I used it to get my first AD machine up and running

                Yes, they do I made a post about it πŸ™‚ and it is still working after 14 days of trial. Up to 6 VMs and 1 host.

                  That's not really free then. That's gimped... basically useless in any non-test or non-lab environment.

                    Correct, like many β€œfree” technologies there is always a catch, at some point not everything can be run on the free.

                        You can try using "Project Honolulu" for your management purposes. It's almost a "single pain in the ass" management console that has nothing to do with management itself but rather a configuration tool (basically various MMC snap-ins, Control Panel, Server Manager and so on brought to web) for windows. But it will solve your issues at current stage for sure.
                        More information here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/manage/honolulu/honolulu

                        A 3rd-party alternative might be the 5nine manager (looks horrible but does it's job) https://www.5nine.com/5nine-manager-standard-edition/ or StarWind Manager https://www.starwindsoftware.com/starwind-manager which is still in preview state or this one http://hv-manager.org/.

                          At least you get 5 VMs, but the 5Nines gives you 6..

                            I'll bring it back around and say that now that I've gotten past the couple of annoying obstacles with Hyper-V and remote management, Hyper-V is freaking awesome. It seems lightning fast.

                              The annoying thing for me is the versioning needed to manage hyper-v. Example: For Hyper-V 2016 you need a windows 10 machine to manage it.

                                      At least you get 5 VMs, but the 5Nines gives you 6..

                                      I'll bring it back around and say that now that I've gotten past the couple of annoying obstacles with Hyper-V and remote management, Hyper-V is freaking awesome. It seems lightning fast.

                                      The annoying thing for me is the versioning needed to manage hyper-v. Example: For Hyper-V 2016 you need a windows 10 machine to manage it.

                                      No you don't.

                                      You can pay for stuff to manage it, but I mean it doesn't automatically allow that

                                      Windows 7+ with RSAT.

                                      I just did that at my last job and it didn't allow it

                                          Unless they changed it to make it not work since I've used Windows 7, I assumed you still could.
