About Vates
Vates is a virtualization software company founded in 2012 that develops and maintains Vates VMS, a comprehensive platform designed to manage and operate virtualized infrastructures in on-premises, hybrid or edge environments. Built on the enterprise-grade XCP-ng hypervisor and managed through Xen Orchestra, Vates VMS enables organizations to deploy, monitor, automate, and protect their virtual machines from a unified interface. The platform integrates native backup, disaster recovery, orchestration, and infrastructure management capabilities, while remaining fully compatible with a wide range of third-party storage, networking, and data protection solutions such as Veeam or Commvault. This flexibility allows IT teams to modernize their virtualization layer without disrupting existing infrastructure components already in production. Vates VMS is delivered through a subscription-based support model with predictable per-host pricing, without CPU or RAM limitations. This approach helps organizations reduce total cost of ownership, simplify scaling strategies, and avoid licensing complexity tied to hardware evolution. Trusted by enterprises, service providers, and public sector organizations worldwide, Vates provides a robust alternative for teams seeking to maintain operational continuity, cost control, and long-term infrastructure flexibility in a rapidly evolving virtualization market.
