Unfortunately, it disappeared in the next release candidate and has not been seen again. A thick (desktop) client was included that could be installed locally by Windows and Mac users (and presumably Linux in the future). There was a glimmer of hope for Mac users in a preview of VMware vSphere 6.0.

Will There Ever be a Desktop App for OS X? Don’t give up, though there are alternatives. But wait, you've only got the MacBook Pro! Unfortunately for developers working on Apple hardware locally, there is no native VMware vSphere client available for OS X. This is where the VMware vSphere software suite comes into play. The next step is obviously connecting to and managing your VMware single-server ESXi environment. Rather than continue paying more for shared hosting at another provider (without OS X of course) you’d like one place to manage all of your servers. You’re probably using MacStadium because you personally use a Mac (let’s call it a MacBook Pro) for day-to-day work and recognize the potential of a hosted Mac. VMware ESXi is a great option to get the most out of a single server at MacStadium as it’s the only enterprise option available for virtualizing OS X, Windows, and Linux on one machine. You’ve just had a Mac mini setup with ESXi to move all of your software onto one machine. We're ready to add any other suggestions that our readers may have. He wrote a great article on this tool explaining its use that's worth checking out. The venerable William Lam of virtuallyGhetto noticed we were missing ESXi Embedded Host Client.

Meant to connect to and manage single ESXi clients, it’s a great solution for users getting started with a dedicated Mac (like a quad-core mini or a Mac Pro) running VMware at MacStadium. In early 2016, VMware began including the embedded HTML5 host client for managing ESXi in version 6.0 U2 from your web browser. Configure a Mac and select 'ESXi' as your operating system.
