Yes, I've heard from multiple peers their prices increased dramatically, and they are exploring alternative solutions.

Ours was 3X the price we previously paid.  I told the Rep we were considering moving away from VMWare  and they gave me the 3 year pricing on a 1 year agreement to stay.  Keep in mind this is now subscription based and if you renew prior to your current agreement expiring it will take effect immediately, not when your current licenses expire.
