Hyper-V is a robust tool which offers very good stability. Since it's integrated into Windows like an app, it feels native and super fast. The type-1 architecture ensures that guest machines run with excellent memory management. The VHDX storage resilience and the ease of creating quick checkpoints are really a great advantage of Hyper-V/ However the experience is dragged down by a dated user interface and a frustratingly complex virtual networking setup that often requires manual troubleshooting when switching between Wi-fi and ethernet.

We use Hyper-V primarily as the virtualization layer to use WSL2 on our enterprise laptops with Windows OS. Integration with windows is seamless which is great for us to be able to handle virtualization on laptops with large amount of limitations for developers. Initial setup required admin rights and this sometimes is risky, I needed IT support for it and delayed using it. Hardware requirements: In my previous laptop it was not working as expected and i needed a laptop change.
