Is there any advantage of this over Qemu/kvm which I believe is supported on the Raspberry Pi?

My employer recently added Pi support for their agent-based monitoring solution. There's also a VMware integration too. Now I can test both the Pi and the VMware functionality with a single device.

Centralized management would be a plus in some circles.
In that sense, Proxmox should really receive more attention.
It's basically a clone of VMWare, but virtualization is based on KVM/Qemu, and can also boot LXC containers.
It's free and open source (it's based on Debian) but you can buy a license that translates to support.
edit: doesn't work on raspberry pi AFAIK, though.
libvirt (https://libvirt.org/apps.html) does this for kvm and works on Pi.
