vmware license
Hey guys,
I need to get a vmware esx 5.5 license and would like vmotion too..however the cost is very high. Is there a way to pay per month on it to make it more manageable?

I would say to use a 3rd party leasing company. Not all will allow software leasing, but i know some do. HP and Dell tend to do 3rd party leasing.
Not through VMware, but if you purchase through a reseller, you can obtain finance.
You would also need a license for VMware vSphere Essentials Plus (cheapest) or VMware vSphere vCenter Server and VMware vSphere Server Standard.
Do you have a SAN ?
have you also considered Hybrid Cloud ? or VMware Datacentre Partner ?
