Market Context
The VMware Landscape Has Changed. Your Needs Haven’t.
The Broadcom acquisition of VMware fundamentally reshaped VMware’s licensing model, partner ecosystem, and go-to-market strategy. Organizations across industries are evaluating long-term infrastructure plans. The challenge isn’t simply understanding what changed, it’s determining what those changes mean for your environment, your licensing position, and your roadmap moving forward.
You might need a VMware strategy session if:
Your renewal is coming up in the next 12 months
Your current provider is no longer an authorized VCSP
You're evaluating VMware Cloud Foundation requirements
You’re currently running vSphere 7 or vSphere 8 and need a support plan
You're concerned about future licensing costs
You're considering a migration to VCF 9 but haven't committed to a direction
You need a contingency plan if your current provider changes strategy

Absolutely, and proactively is always better than reactively. A renewal is a natural moment to assess whether your current partner, infrastructure, and licensing structure still serve your business well. TierPoint offers complimentary environment assessments and renewal consultations, no obligation, just a clear-eyed look at where you stand and what your options are. The new requirements and benefits of VCF 9 coupled with the current hardware supply chain challenges make renewal time a perfect inflection point for evaluating future direction.
