Want to try Operation Manager

Hi,

We have a demo enviroment with vsphere 5.5, running vcenter. We would like to try out vcenter operation manager, but not sure what to download.

I would like to try it as an appliance, but it seems that i need to reinstall vcenter with operation manager? im not sure... to many options to choose from

Is it one of these i need to download ?

VMware vCenter Operations Manager Standard 5.8.4
VMware vCenter Operations Manager Advanced 5.8.4
VMware vCenter Operations Manager Enterprise 5.8.4

And do someone have a good link to a site that shows whats the difference in each version.

Regards Andreas

There is no difference between which to download, the OVA is the same for all editions (including the free Foundation edition)... only the license key will differentiate the edition and features.

For compare editions/features, take a look here: Compare vRealize Operations Editions | United States
