Registered, pinnacle and premier partners who are not continuing as authorised partners:

  • May continue to offer services using VMware VCF until the end of their white label contract and may increase their core commit in this time on a co-termed basis
  • May continue to add new customers to their service until 31st October 2025. From 1st November, no new customers can be added

No new partners can be added on to the partner programme – it is by invitation only.

What partners can do next:

Partners may choose to:

  • Move to another technology for new customers by 1st November 2025 and migrate all customers by 1st April 2027
  • Partner with a continuing authorised partner, like Redcentric

Broadcom expects partners to either wind down their VMware VCF-subscription platforms by the end of their contract (in most circumstances, this will be 31st March 2027) or move to a platform operated by one of the continuing authorised partners.
