Want to Estimate your Azure VM Cost from VMware or Hyper-V

  • Article

Question:  How do I estimate a VM Azure cost for a VMware of Hyper-V workload?

Answer:  Use a free tool called Azure Cost Estimator from the link below that will analyze a Hyper-V, VMware, specific machine or IP subnet for machines and report back the size VM you need to run in Azure to achieve similar performance.  The tool will also report back storage I/O costs if you let the tool run for a week or so against an existing workload.
