On-site virtualization migrations for SMBs

Get Off VMware Fast PIVOT on a VRTX

Veteran Guard Partners helps small and midsize businesses move away from painful VMware licensing by temporarily landing workloads on converged Dell PowerEdge VRTX infrastructure, then redeploying to Hyper-V, Linux KVM, or another platform that fits the client long term. You may even keep your existing hardware.

Destination Hyper-V, KVM, or the right-fit replacement platform
What This Looks Like

We use VRTX as the temporary landing zone so production can keep moving while the final platform is rebuilt correctly.

  • Move away from VMware without forcing a rushed one-shot cutover into the final environment.
  • Run the workload on converged Dell PowerEdge VRTX infrastructure while the replacement stack is deployed.
  • Finish on Hyper-V, Linux KVM, or another platform that makes operational and financial sense.
Core Services

One focused offer: get off VMware without buying your way into a worse licensing mess.

Veteran Guard Partners leads the migration away from Broadcom VMware licensing pressure, brings a temporary on-site staging stack for the move, and helps stabilize the new platform after cutover.

Primary Offer

VMware Exit Planning and Migration

A practical migration path for SMB environments hit by Broadcom licensing headaches, renewal pressure, or virtualization costs that no longer make sense.

  • Assess hosts, workloads, backups, dependencies, downtime limits, and licensing exposure.
  • Build a staged plan that avoids a rushed rip-and-replace into the final platform.
  • Move to Hyper-V, KVM, Proxmox, or a hybrid infrastructure that fits the business.

Foundation of the Offer

Temporary On-Site Staging

We physically provide a Dell PowerEdge VRTX stack as the local transition platform, giving you room to move workloads while your existing hardware is converted.

  • Stage workloads on a separate local stack instead of betting everything on one cutover.
  • Keep services close to the business while the new virtualization platform is prepared.
  • Give existing hosts a cleaner path to Hyper-V, KVM, Proxmox, or hybrid reuse.

After the Move

Stabilization and Support

After the migration, we can stay involved to document the environment, stabilize operations, and solve the infrastructure problems that show up in real life.

  • Validate backups, monitoring, access, documentation, and day-to-day operating details.
  • Clean up old assumptions so the new environment is easier to maintain.
  • Provide ongoing problem solving when the client wants practical day-to-day help.
