For years, Proxmox Virtual Environment (Proxmox VE) lived in a kind of “in-between land”: too powerful to be dismissed as a lab tool, yet still lacking the commercial gravity of the biggest names in virtualization. In 2025, that balance has broken. This open-source platform has solidified as a real — and in many cases preferred
The Proxmox ecosystem has just taken an important step forward with the release of Proxmox Datacenter Manager 1.0, the first stable version of its centralized management platform. The tool is designed to solve a very specific problem: how to operate, monitor, and scale dozens of Proxmox VE nodes and clusters and Proxmox Backup Server instances
At Stackscale we work with VMware vSphere and Proxmox VE every day. Our approach isn’t to “force” a tool, but to fit the platform to the project’s requirements (technical, operational, and business). Below is a practical analysis—aligned with Stackscale’s editorial style—of when each technology makes sense and how that translates into operations, cost, and risk.
