VMWare FUD. Anyone moving away from it professionally? (self.sysadmin)

I've been seeing a lot of doom and gloom about VMware. The cutting of services and licensing changes of the cost of core offerings are huge issues. Is anyone planning or budgeting to change to another hypervisor? If so what?

I think Broadcom intends to dig VMware out of dept to turn it into a profitable company. This means killing off the smaller customers as 90% of the business comes from enterprises that will never switch to anything else no matter the cost.

This is probably where my shop will end up. Sticking with it and dealing with the higher price.
