Easier Virtualization with VMware Go™— A New Service that Will Make Virtualization Even Easier for First Time Users

VMware Go™ is a free web-based service that will enable SMB customers to setup the ESXi server really fast. With just a few mouse clicks. VMware ESXi is a free solution to enable you to run multiple operating systems and applications on a single server, spending less money on hardware, power and cooling, and server administration.

VMware Go simplifies the virtualization process by automating the VMware EXSi hypervisor installation and setup. (It’s already simple enough… -:) . The idea is to reduce the procedure to a few online steps, enabling SMB owners to get started with virtualization without needing IT resources.

VMware ESXi with VMware Go is designed specially for SMB (small businesses) who may not think they have the time or budget to get started.

What do you need to do to get started?

Register for free at VMware Website here and than you’ll be able to:

01. Create a new ESXi Server
VMware Go™ can easily install a new ESXi server. When finished with that you’ll be able to add VMs and build your VM environment.

02. Add VMs to an Existing ESXi Server
It’s easy to discover existing ESXi servers that you already have and use VMware Go™ to add VMs and manage your existing ESXi environment.

03. Manage ESXis and VMs
The “Manage ESXis/VMs” control panel allows you to make changes to your VM environment from one easy to use web interface.
