[cisco-voip] difference between Cisco UC Virtualization Foundation vs VMWare vSphere

[Matthew Loraditch]

Foundation is not free but is cheaper than standard
Details here (scroll down just a wee bit):

I use it on my installs but it does have RAM limitations, even though VMWare has dumped those, this is a Cisco OEM Version and the RAM limit still exists as of now.

just wondering if anyone has any comments on the difference between Cisco UC Virtualization Foundation vs VMWare vSphere ? it says that one of these is required. i'm looking at a couple of C series installations.

Is Foundations "free"? Will it give me everything I need to manage these VMs?

Thoughts?
