Why 639Cloud VM Is Your Best Bet as VMware Standalone Support Ends
September 2, 2025
For more than two decades, VMware has been the cornerstone of virtualization in enterprise data centers worldwide. From Fortune 500 companies to mid-market organizations, VMware products such as vSphere, NSX, and HCX have defined stability, scalability, and maturity in virtualization.
That era, however, is rapidly shifting. Following Broadcom’s acquisition of VMware in 2023, the company has embarked on a sweeping restructuring of its portfolio. Dozens of well-known standalone products have been discontinued. Licensing models are transitioning to mandatory subscriptions. Customers are being funneled into bundled offerings such as VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF).
For IT leaders, these changes translate into:
As one analyst succinctly noted: “The VMware we have known is no more.”
Organizations now face a critical decision: remain tethered to an increasingly restrictive ecosystem or transition to alternatives that deliver freedom, transparency, and future-ready infrastructure.
639Cloud was created with these industry shifts in mind. As a next-generation cloud platform powered entirely by renewable solar energy and engineered for performance, it provides a compelling alternative to VMware’s increasingly rigid ecosystem.
Where VMware is becoming heavier, costlier, and less transparent, 639Cloud VM remains agile, cost-effective, and forward-looking.
VMware’s new direction pushes customers into large bundles, often paying for far more than they need. By contrast, 639Cloud VM offers:
You get exactly what you need, without unnecessary overhead.
VMware’s licensing has long been viewed as complex. With perpetual licenses being phased out, organizations now face unpredictable cost escalations under subscription models.
639Cloud eliminates this uncertainty with flat, transparent pricing. For example:
No hidden costs. No forced bundles. Just straightforward pricing that averages 30% lower than major hyperscalers.
Cost efficiency only matters if performance holds up, and with 639Cloud, it does. Our infrastructure is built for enterprise workloads:
Whether for development, testing, or mission-critical production systems, 639Cloud VM delivers the consistency modern IT environments demand.
Sustainability is no longer a “nice to have”, it is a board-level priority. Unlike legacy providers operating on fossil-heavy grids, 639Cloud’s infrastructure runs entirely on solar power.
This delivers tangible benefits:
With 639Cloud, organizations no longer need to choose between high performance and environmental responsibility.
The future of IT is hybrid, blending virtual machines, containers, and edge workloads. VMware’s portfolio shifts risk forcing enterprises into rigid pathways. 639Cloud, on the other hand, is designed for flexibility:
In short: 639Cloud positions organizations not just to keep pace, but to lead in the next era of virtualization.
The Bottom Line: A Smarter Path Beyond VMware
Broadcom’s restructuring of VMware has created disruption, uncertainty, and new costs for customers who have relied on its technologies for decades. For IT leaders, the decision is no longer whether to explore alternatives, but which alternative provides the right balance of performance, transparency, and sustainability.
639Cloud VM offers a clear, future-ready path forward:
As the standalone VMware era comes to a close, you don’t need to accept higher costs and fewer options. With 639Cloud VM, you gain control, cost savings, and a greener infrastructure future.
