Migrating from VMware to Hyper-v
Hi, I've recently deployed a new 3x node Hyper-v cluster running Windows Server 2025. I have an existing VMware cluster running exsi 7.x. What tools or approach have you guys used to migrate from V...
Windows Admin Center is really the most recommended option as it's native to Microsoft; however, another approach would be to use the Veeam backup tool.
I've had good experiences using this method, especially in critical or legacy environments, and some common compatibility issues with StarWind 2v2 didn't occur with it.
Although it's a paid enterprise backup tool, they provide a free version that allows backup/migration of 10 VMs at a time.
Have to admit it's good. Bit buggy to the point we've not been able to move some vm's, however, for the most part it works very well.
