More than likely due to the increased costs in VMWare since the
Broadcom acquisition. At work our VMWare licensing costs doubled and
that was with going down a license level and losing a few features. I
think it was a seven fold increase to stay with the same license. Some
other groups at work saw their costs increase by a factor of twelve. I
know there are discussions about moving away from VMWare to something
else, but that's occurring above my paygrade.
