As someone who works for an Avaya partner/reseller I can't wait to find out more about this whole Avaya Cloud offering staring RingCentral.
I've been contacted by no less than 3 partner/resellers about this. I simply haven't had the time to do more about it other than to attend a presentation. No nuts and bolts, just slides & a few questions.
It's RC and Avaya, no real reason to look at it. Your time matters, so looking at solutions you know aren't realistic are important to skip to make sure you have time for what's needed.
RC is a decent solution for the right need. It is a limited scope IMO, but it is valid.
Avaya on the other hand is just a cesspool. Bankruptcy to NYSE listing in 2 years? Yeah, money grab.
It's also not their 1st bankruptcy if I remember correctly. I didn't recommend this when we upgraded, but the boys went with brand recognition over looking deeper into alternatives.

I just woke up about an hour ago and I don't think I was done sleeping.

Is there a "migration" path to go from ESXi to KVM? Without the need to format the storage, or is it advised to backup and re-create all VM's and storage?
You can use virt-v2v. I believe @JaredBusch used it when migrated a Hyper-V VM to KVM.
here is the thread I made on the subject: https://www.mangolassi.it/topic/19781/converting-hyper-v-to-kvm
I did, for this system.

I have never tried GPU passthrough before on KVM. Here's some info from a Proxmox point of view but it shouldn't be too much different with your chosen Linux distro and KVM.

https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/gpu-passthrough-tutorial-reference.34303/Must say looking through the guides, looks like a lot of work to get GPU passthrough working compared to ESXi
Yeah, that’s why I haven’t considered trying it.

We have 2 sites in Central-Western Pa and both are holding fine. They are fed out of NE Ohio.

humblefax.comUnless you need a ton of simultaneous faxes (and perhaps even then) will ever be less expensive than your rolling your own with a fax card and a NAS to drop them on.
I guess it really depends what you need from the solution.
I get around 700 pages/day. The last several solutions I looked at were going to be around $1000/m. I have two in-house All-In-Ones that I have two POTS lines connected to, and the machines just save the files to a NAS in PDF form, Already had the All-In-Ones ($700/ea) so I pay around $50/m for the POTS lines total. But I can live with everything being inhouse, perhaps you can't.

I might be able to give up grooming my facial hair but my head is different story.
If l give that up, I would look George Jefferson or the sea when Moses parts the sea in the Ten Commandments movie. -
