Purchase only the cheaper solution with support. I don’t recommend high-end licenses.
Compared with other vendors’ products, the pricing of the license is slightly lower. The annual S&S price is very affordable.

Hyper-V is a hardware virtualization tool that allows users to create virtual computer environments with multiple operating systems on a single physical server. Each virtual machine has computer parts, such as memory, processor, storage, and networking, and acts like a standard computer - running its own operating system and software programs. Each component of the virtual machine can be configured to meet your specific requirements.
It's cheap, but not the best.
Once we bought the datacenter version of the server, we did away with worrying about the cost of licensing our VMs separately
