Beyond the VMware Exit Consolidate Every Platform onto VergeOS with Veeam
Most VMware alternatives only promise a home for vSphere workloads. With official VergeOS support in Veeam Backup & Replication 13.1, one restore job moves workloads from vSphere, Hyper-V, Nutanix AHV, AWS, Azure, GCP, and physical servers onto VergeOS.
