Why is VirtualBox better than VMware?

VirtualBox has advantages over VMware in certain areas, particularly due to its open-source nature and cost-effectiveness. VirtualBox is freely downloadable for personal or enterprise use, hence fitting within the budget of an individual, small businesses, and organizations with strained budgets. It also supports a wide range of host and guest operating systems, providing flexibility across platforms.
Besides that, VirtualBox is famous for its ease of use, easily set up, possibly perfect for users who are new to virtualization, but mostly for fast and simple VMs for testing. Its open-source community contributes to frequent updates and the existence of custom plugins, extending its versatility. Although most of the advanced functions and enterprise-level stability for users would be costly, it is worth mentioning that VirtualBox is still an option for users on a tighter budget or those requiring a flexible open-source solution.
