Welcome to the Community,

in order to manager multiple ESXi hosts with the vSphere Client you need to deploy vCenter Server which requires licensed (paid) editions of ESXi as well as the license for vCenter Server.

... just another thought about "loosing features". If you are adding hosts which are currently running in evaluation mode (provides all the features of the Enterprise Plus edition) to a vCenter Server environment, you will receive this warning if you are going to apply license key other than Enterprise Plus to these hosts.
