Move to Citrix. You can even use their cloud management system to manage your on prem infrastructure. So that's an easy first workload to shift.
Citrix is garbage, I work with it daily
Maybe you're bigger than us? I run 80k virtual desktops and it's not bad. Yes, their workspace client is fiddly as hell, and the VDA upgrade is hard, but the platform itself is solid.
Just curious--where are you hosting your vms? We have a handful that use azure, but most are running on prem esxi. I'm biased because I came in to nothing being documented
On prem. We haven't done cloud yet.
My most trouble free environments are the azure ones. Servers spin up or down based on user count. It's not cheap though.
Azure backups are the shit. Need to roll back to yesterday to pull a copy of a file? Log onto azure, go to backup section. Then you download an executable and get a key. Run it on your file server, and it mounts a copy of the disk as it was at backup time. So nice and easy.
