What makes Hyper-V better? (not baiting I really just don't know much)

I like VirtualBox. Easy to use.

I'd assume because of Dynamic Allocation of RAM (you can overcommit your physical RAM, i.e. have more VM's running) and perhaps VLAN IDs (if you have Cisco/Mikrotik/Juniper etc. equipmet that supports VLANs).

I talking from my ass though, been using VMWare Workstation until now and only recently started using ESXi/Hyper-V so I may be quite wrong.

VMWare Workstation is great, Hyper-V is supposed to be good but is limited in terms of OS support. It really depends on your CPU hardware virtualization support. VirtualBox is typical open source: works, but less features than the commercial offerings.

>pre-made VM images

All over the place. Tons of projects have ready made images for testing and usually support at least 2 image formats.

not user of hyper-v but it is suppose that has hypervisor for better control of the resources instead of using the host OS to do that

the another advantage i know is that you can move vm between another hyper v in local and still using it

but idk, I've been using virtualbox for like 7 years
