I have shortlisted three competing products - Virtualiron, XenEnterprise and VMware ESX and also read the forums, datasheets and whitepapers and learned that, for example, there are certain features which are still not supported in Virtualiron like the Virtual Switch. No disrespect but we all know that VMware is the market leader and their ESX is a mature product (obviously, it comes with a hefty price tag) so from that respect, it would be a big help if someone can provide a feature matrix comparison between the three. I have questions like- what are the features and functionalities that are not in VI and are in ESX? How critical is it to the operation and management of the server? I know this a VI forum so my apologies for posting a message that mention the names of your competitors. Regards, Archie from Oman
