SolusVM 1 Trial Keys Availability

As part of our ongoing commitment to improving our product offerings and providing you with the best possible virtualization management solutions, we are announcing a key change regarding SolusVM 1.

Starting from October 16th, 2024, trial keys for SolusVM 1 will no longer be available. This decision has been made in alignment with our broader strategy to transition customers towards our latest, more advanced platform, SolusVM 2.

We understand that this may raise some questions and concerns, and we want to ensure a smooth transition while highlighting the significant benefits of upgrading to SolusVM 2.

Why Are We Ending SolusVM 1 Trial Keys?

SolusVM 1 has been a reliable platform for many years, providing thousands of businesses with powerful server virtualization management tools. However, as technology evolves, so do the demands for more robust, scalable, and secure solutions. SolusVM 2 has been built with modern-day virtualization requirements in mind, offering improved features and enhanced performance.

There are several key reasons behind the decision to discontinue trial keys for SolusVM 1:

  1. Focus on Future Development
    SolusVM 2 represents the next generation of our platform, featuring a range of innovations designed to meet the increasing demands of virtualization and cloud infrastructure management. By directing resources and attention to SolusVM 2, we can ensure that our customers benefit from the most cutting-edge technology and ongoing improvements.
  2. End-of-Life Considerations for SolusVM 1
    While SolusVM 1 continues to be supported for the time being, it is no longer the primary focus of development. As such, offering trial keys would not align with our vision of providing the best possible customer experience.
  3. Streamlined Customer Journey
    SolusVM 2 delivers a more streamlined, user-friendly experience, with a simplified installation process and improved performance. Encouraging new customers to start with SolusVM 2 rather than SolusVM 1 ensures that they begin their virtualization management journey with the most powerful tools at their disposal.

Benefits of Upgrading to SolusVM 2
