Businesses Are Seeking
VMware Alternatives

Broadcom shifted the VMware partner program to an invite-only format and reduced the number of partners.
Nutanix — the Best-Prepared Alternative
Over 400,000 ESXi VMs have already been migrated to Nutanix. The platform offers a ready-made toolset for migrating from VMware, reducing transition time and lowering risks for the customer. AHV is built into the platform — no separate hypervisor license is required.

For a service provider, this means lower TCO and a simpler operating model without additional vendor dependencies.

Special Terms for VMware Migration

At .NEXT 2026, Nutanix launched a special program for service providers migrating from VMware.

Benefits of the Program for Service Providers

Focus on Your Service — We Handle the Operational Routine

As the official Nutanix SP Aggregator, Elcore handles all organizational and technical aspects of the partnership. One contract with a local partner instead of international negotiations — documentation, billing, and vendor communication are on our side.

What’s Included in the Partnership:

  • Architectural support for launching IaaS, DaaS, and PaaS projects
  • Ready-made VMware migration scenarios tailored to client cases
  • Access to certification and team training
  • Support for complex implementation projects
  • Agreement in local currency — no currency risks or complex international schemes

Benefits of the
Consumption Model

Consumption (pay-as-you-go) is a billing model where the provider pays only for the resources actually used. Nutanix implements this through the Flexible Consumption program with monthly usage tracking.

Contract term — from 12 to 60 months with a fixed minimum monthly commitment. Exceeding the limit is billed at the standard rate — with no penalty surcharges.

How Consumption Is Measured
Nutanix Pulse Health Monitoring tracks actual license and capacity consumption on an hourly basis. The provider sees the balance in real time through Nutanix Billing on the partner portal. Advance payment cycles — monthly, quarterly, or annual, by choice.

Why the Consumption Model
Benefits the Provider

Under a single contract, licenses, resources,
and services can be added at any time.

The New Consumption Model

Elcore provides contracts under the consumption model
as an official Nutanix aggregator

Before: The Classic Model

  • Large upfront commitment
    You pay commitments in advance, regardless of how much you’ve sold to customers

  • Fixed SKU for the entire term
    Impossible to change the product or resource type without a new contract

  • Growth beyond the limit
    Penalties or forced expansion

  • The CapEx model makes it harder to acquire new customers
    High barrier to entry

New: The Consumption Model (pay-as-you-go)

  • Minimal commitment
    No risk of overpaying for unused resources

  • Licensing model is tailored
    To the type of service and workload

  • Scaling
    No need to re-sign contracts — growth within the existing agreement

  • The OpEx model lowers the barrier to entry
    Easier to attract new customers and launch new services

This model was built specifically for service providers building dynamic services and actively acquiring new customers.

Nutanix — One Stack for Everything

A Single Platform for the Entire Service Portfolio

Nutanix Cloud Platform unifies compute, storage, networking, and protection into a single environment. The AHV hypervisor is natively built in — no separate virtualization licenses are needed, reducing the number of vendors in the stack.

On top of the infrastructure sits a ready-made stack: IaaS, PaaS, DaaS, Kubernetes, AI services, DR. A single Cloud Manager with AIOps, Self-Service, and SecOps replaces multiple disparate solutions.

Workloads are portable across your own infrastructure, AWS, Azure, Google, OVHcloud, and other clouds — without changing the operating model.

For a service provider, this means lower licensing costs, simpler administration, and a single point of support. TCO goes down, margin goes up.

Nutanix Advantages

Multi-Tenancy Out of the Box

Isolated environments for each customer on a single infrastructure. A self-service portal lets customers manage their own resources independently — without involving your team.

Automation of Operational Processes

Lifecycle management, alerts, AIOps, and SecOps are built into the platform. Routine operations are automated — your team focuses on growing services, not maintaining infrastructure.

A Single Point of Management

The entire service portfolio — Storage, Kubernetes, Database, DR, Enterprise AI — is managed from a single interface. Real-time cost and access control per customer.

Scaling Without Changing the Architecture

New customers and workloads are added within the existing platform. Expansion into public clouds — AWS, Azure, Google Cloud — without changing the operating model or migrating data.
