VMware’s Licensing Prices Spike in the Wake of Broadcom Acquisition

Since Broadcom’s acquisition of VMware, a lot of changes have taken place internally. But what has made the biggest impact on the customers is Broadcom’s revision of VMware’s software licensing price list. Prices have jumped up from 5% to 25% as licensing tiers have been merged and restructured.
