I really like the project and have been happily running it on my home lab for quite a while. But for enterprise their pricing for enterprise use is not really cheap either. 510€/socket/year is way more than the previous vmware deal we're running. Apparently broadcom has changed their pricing to per core which is just lunatic (it would practically add up to millions per month on our environment), so it's interesting to see what's going to happen when our licenses expire.

You must have had a real sweetheart deal on VMware then. Proxmox is cheaper than VMware even under the old pricing. You also don't have to buy the "Standard" subscription. There are cheaper ones.

Not just per core, but with a core minimum. We had some edge servers that are low power hosts that we now pay 5x on because of the core minimum.

Our main vmware license is still under the old pricing due to lock in, but that expires in a few years. We will be moving off vmwaew, and by then hopefully improvements like this bring proxmox into the competition.
