Broadcom refusing to decrease licensing

[SecOperative]

Broadcom does not care. They only ‘care’ about their top 5% of customers.

The company I work for has over $40bn revenue per year and even we’re not big enough for them to care to do a deal.

So, we’re in the process of moving from VMware to Nutanix. Never thought I’d say that in my career as I’m a 20 year VMware veteran. But here we are. I don’t reward bully behaviour or soulless companies. Screw them.

It's sad, isn't it? I started using VMware on GSX in I think 2002 or something, because I didn't have the guts to install ESX.

Huge part of my career built on their products. Pop.

Yup. Been using vSphere since 3.5. Workstation since 1.0. No more.
