Sysprobs Data: prices, licences and surveys you can check
Original datasets, calculators and reference tables for IT infrastructure from Sysprobs. Every figure is traced to a primary source, dated and refreshed on a schedule.
Windows Server is a one-time price (S02 states no term), so 3-year cost equals 1-year cost. Subscriptions and meters are 3 x the annual figure. Proxmox converted from EUR at the ECB reference rate 1.1269 USD per EUR of 2026-10-06. Open the calculator to enter your own hosts, cores and VM count.
Standard or Datacenter? Move the slider.
On a 16-core host, each Windows Server 2025 Standard licence covers two VMs, so the cost climbs in steps. Datacenter is one price with unlimited VMs.
