I've been a VMWare customer since 1999, primarily to run Linux and other Unix variants alongside Windows. Hyper-V 2012 R2 is a 3 year old product which is fine for a Windows-only shop but has no real advantages over VMWare. For customers who need virtualisation at the desktop level and/or need to run non-Microsoft operating systems, VMWare will always be the preferred choice especially since alternatives in that area (VirtualBox for example) don't even come close to the performance that VMWare offers.
