Jan 28, 2019  Each VMware vSphere edition has its own price but VMware also provides a free version of ESXi. Today’s blog post explores features of free VMware ESXi as well as restrictions and limitations that await you if you use this version of an ESXi hypervisor. Applying a Free VMware ESXi License. The good thing is, VMware are very loyal in ESXi licensing. Well, you won’t get a rich set of hypervisor features in a free version, of course; but you, at least, don’t need to pay for its deployment in your home lab! In this article, I compare both free VMware ESXi 6.7. Jul 09, 2019  Major companies choose ESXi due its simplicity, reliability, and robustness. With such quality, VMware tends to cost us with high investment. But, when budget is a major constraint, we can consider using free ESXi in some areas of production and cut some expense. VMware ESXi is a free hypervisor from VMware.

I am running an ESXi Vsphere Client Version 6.0.0 but with all the different documentation and changes I have trouble to understand my limitations.From the official documentation I see that my limit for physical CPU should be unlimited but I can only give a VM up to 8 vCPU.

From other sources I read that I have a limit of 2 physical CPU in the free version.I see that the memory limitation is gone, which I am happy about.

I am only interested in the Hardware limitations, not the limits for creating failovers etc.

Those two stats you mention are different; it's 8 virtualised CPUs per VM and 2 physical CPU sockets that they're talking about - not the same thing. BTW if you're going with the free version have a look at THIS great new ESXi add-in that gives you a vCenter-like interface into your host via a web client - it's really new and really useful :)
