Server/Desktop Virtualization
Citrix_Solution_Advisor_Silver_212x107Citrix has announced Project Open Door in hopes of luring VMware customers to its own XenServer virtualization platform or Microsoft’s Hyper-V technology. The common thread in the migration pitch is the Citrix Essentials management software that integrates with both XenServer and Hyper-V. Citrix officials touted the management software while also arguing that XenServer and Hyper-V are cheaper alternatives to VMware’s vSphere 4 or ESX platforms.

Citrix Systems is kicking off a program designed to lure businesses away from VMware server virtualization technology and to Citrix’s XenServer product or Microsoft’s Hyper-V offering.

Citrix officials unveiled Project Open Door Oct. 14, offering free support, training and migration tools to enterprises that move from using VMware’s ESX or vSphere virtualization platforms to XenServer or Hyper-V managed by the Citrix Essentials management software.
