NEW GUI hyper-v Manager hits the market and I helped create it..Probus-IT Hyper-V Manager (HVM)

NEW******************NEW*********************NEW*****************NEW
Just released a new hyper-v manager that is free for non commercial use and pay for use if commercial.

I endorse this product as I helped in it's design and features and the GUI is much better than my product.

Probus-IT Hyper-V Manager (HVM) will help you to manage Hyper-V Servers and virtual machines. It is especially useful on core installations where you cannot run Microsoft Hyper-V manager locally. No RSAT or DOT-Net install needed. No fiddling with cmdkey and HVRemote-scripts. Installs on 32 and 64-Bit windows. Use it on Servers, desktops and Core installations both 32 and 64-Bit.
Thanks Håkan Lindén

There are 5 Hyper-v Manager products for hyper-v 2012 that I know of:
Listed by feature set only
1. Hyper-v Manager from Microsoft (requires you have windows 8 or server 2012)
2. Vtutilities (www.vtutilities) has all the features of the microsoft product, has a 14 day trial and then costs $119 per server you install it on)
3. Probus-IT Hyper-V Manager (HVM)  above... great product still needs import and export feature, free for non commerical use and is a pay for product (still working on the US $ price point, but the more people who download it the cheaper the price will be) I helped develop this product and it has many of the features of the Microsoft and VTutilities products, the GUI is much better than my free product and frankly I wish I could code as good as Håkan Lindén.
4. PSHVM30 - My free powershell GUI hyper-v manager (will always be free and most likely wili not be developed further as the other free product choices grow and improve)
5. 5Nine Hyper-v manager (there is a free version and I have talked to the CIO and they know it is not even close to the above 4 choices as far as features) I have been promised that the next 2 or 3 versions will be a vast improvement over what has just been released, however the paid version $149 is just too expensive for what you are getting.

If you are listing by cost and then feature set.
1.  Probus-IT Hyper-V Manager (HVM) ( free for now, price point TBD)
2. PSHVM30 - Free and ugly but it works, as one reviewer wrote not real coding and poorly written.
3. Vtiltities - $119 per server can get expensive in a hurry
4. Windows 8 and server 2012 If you already own them then this is #1 but if you have to buy them #4.
5. 5Nine v3.6 (even though this is free it just lacks so many features it is less than helpful with its current set of features)
