Virtualization of Standalone MCD basepack and licenses

[petr.necas]

Hi all,
       do you know if there any reason for Mitel not to support virtualization for Standalone MCD basepack and licenses? We have several customers (single site) that want to use virtualization, but selling them double priced Enterprise base pack and licenses would not be acceptable.

Thanks

Mitel released a Virtual Standalone Basepack in 2010, it was discontinued less than a year later. According to Mitel, it was to simplify the product offering. Mitel documentation states that a system has to be Enterprise in order to be virtualized.
