XenServer sets a new standard for free virtualization, with powerful features such as live motion, centralized multi-node management, and multi-server resource sharing. While basic hypervisors such as VMware ESXi can be obtained for free, they need costly management add-ons to meet real-world needs.

“Does XenServer 5 pass the “first impression” test? Yes. It offers speed, flexibility, scalability, ease of use, and a price that will make your accountant grin. XenServer 5 is a success from download to deployment and a win for Citrix and users alike. There’s much to like about XenServer 5 and very little to dislike. An enterprise-level product built by one of the world’s leading technology companies that’s also free—what’s not to love?
