FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does the migration take?

It depends on the complexity of your infrastructure, but from the time we gather the requirements until you say goodbye to VMware, it usually doesn't take more than 3 weeks. We have advanced tools and methodologies to reduce the downtime of each VM to just a few minutes. We take care of everything: storage and communications too.

What happens to VMware licenses after the migration?

By migrating to Proxmox VE (AGPLv3), you eliminate dependencies on proprietary licenses, but if you have perpetual VMware licenses, you can continue using them. If you need the VMware environments for an extended period, we can offer third-party support.

Is there post-migration support?

Of course, we offer preventive and corrective technical support to our clients.
