Unfortunately I don't know what the MSP has provided or offered, I was simply told that "they / we" will be virtualizing all of our critical servers to ESXi (of which I later found out the proposed version was Essentials). When I heard this I had a real serious discussion with my boss about not incorporating yet another Hypervisor. Our MSP has already setup Hyper-V which is only running 2 VM's on our 2nd DC, and they run like shit. I don't want them creating and building a solution that will result in more of this.

So here I'm just pulling in a topic I've started on SW.

To sum it up I need some more selling points as to why we as a business should expand our currently free version of XenServer rather than trying to adopt yet another Hypervisor being proposed by our MSP.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I had to pop in SAM (scottalanmiller) made me do it.
