The depreciation advantage

On-premise solutions benefit from hardware depreciation. After 3 years, your hardware costs drop to zero — while cloud services keep charging the same amount forever.

Based on publicly available list prices as of March 2026. VMware Cloud Foundation at $350/core/year (Broadcom). Nutanix NCI Ultimate estimated at ~$287/core/year on-prem, derived from published NC2 cloud pricing ($1,148/core/year, nutanix.com) adjusted for on-premises deployment. AWS r6i.16xlarge on-demand in us-east-1. OVH Managed VMware Private Cloud (Pack PRE 384, 384 GB). All prices excl. VAT.

The smart choice. Here's why.
