The product is an open source Virtual Environment Manager that simplifies the task of monitoring and working with multiple virtual machines and containers, it is continually updated and maintained, and has very few problems and bugs.
It is a tool that it is free to use and that one can purchase technical support with several variants, with prices according to the numbre of events supported.
Pros

- Could implement continuous migration or snapshots, added to timed snapshots and live and cold migration.
- The CAPEX and OPEX is much better tha other similar products.
- Being open source, free software, is the better price one could find.
