I've seen about 50/50 VMware/Hyper-V in my travels. I mostly deal with manufacturing companies in the US. They're very Windows centric, which, I imagine, is why Hyper-V comes up so often. Virtually none of them want to touch anything cloud based; there's a lack of trust and potential legal issues depending on what they're making. Cloud platforms targeted toward government might change that. The more forward thinking small/mid sized operations seem to be moving towards some cloud based products, but the industry is behind the times. Can only speak from experience within US manufacturing. Don't apply this beyond that.
