Which one is right for you?

Embotics V-Scout is a free insight and monitoring tool for VMware environments, while V-Commander is a policy based VM control and management tool. Although they are based on the same basic platform and there is an upgrade path from V-Scout to V-Commander, they are two very different products, solving very different problems.
