Why MSPs and VARs Seeking VMware Alternatives Should Rethink Their Infrastructure Strategy
MSPs and VARs seeking VMware alternatives should rethink their entire infrastructure strategy. This blog explores how partnering with a CSP built for MSPs—and powered by a unified platform like VergeOS—enables scalable, secure, multi-tenant services while simplifying VMware migration and unlocking new growth opportunities through virtual data center architectures.
Critical Capabilities for Service Providers Evaluating VMware Alternatives
Service providers currently reevaluating their reliance on VMware have a lot to consider. Rising licensing costs, complex management overhead, and shifting market dynamics push many to explore alternative platforms. Yet, transitioning successfully away from VMware requires more than just replacing…
The Power of VDI Efficiency
Efficient infrastructure and VDI software let organizations cut costs, extend hardware life, and simplify migration from Citrix or Omnissa. By doing more with existing resources, IT teams avoid hidden costs, boost performance, and modernize flexibly—without needing new hardware or complex licensing.
Reducing the Cost of Networking
Many IT teams searching for a VMware alternative overlook networking costs. Proprietary switches, firewalls, and VPN appliances add unnecessary expenses. By integrating SDN into the hypervisor, organizations can eliminate licensing fees, reduce hardware costs, and simplify management—without sacrificing performance or security. Now is the time to rethink networking.

How to Eliminate Future Storage Refreshes with an Enterprise-Class vSAN
A storage refresh is often a costly and time-consuming process, forcing IT teams to evaluate, purchase, and migrate data every few years. The traditional approach of investing in dedicated storage arrays or single-vendor hyperconverged systems locks organizations into rigid, short-term…
Why Multi-Tier Storage Support Matters More Than Ever
With the rise of QLC, TLC, and MLC SSDs, alongside traditional HDDs, multi-tier storage support has become more critical than ever. Not all workloads demand the highest-performing storage, and organizations require the ability to balance performance, endurance, and efficiency. A…

Is HCI a True VMware Alternative?
Hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) is often considered a VMware alternative, but its performance bottlenecks, scalability limits, and strict hardware requirements create challenges. This blog explores why HCI falls short and how VergeIO’s ultraconverged infrastructure (UCI) provides a more flexible, efficient path for VMware exits.
Why a SAN Replacement and a VMware Exit Should Go Hand in Hand

What is the Best Block Size for Testing Storage Performance?
If you noticed VergeIO’s most recent press release, they reported their performance results (1 Million + IOPS) based on 64K block-sized tests—breaking away from the more common but less realistic 4K block-sized tests. This shift offers a better representation of…
