VMware Workstation can be rolled out in any workstation. However, you don't scale it, you only install it on the workstations where you need it.
We have four or five people using this solution. We are a small company and when we first purchased the solution we had ten people using it at that time.

VMware Workstation cannot scale. It's one installation on one system, you can't scale it. It uses the resources of my computer only.

There are no issues with scalability. When we need to make any tweaks by adding more resources, it's pretty straightforward. I'm the only user. In terms of the back end, Microsoft patching needs to be done on a monthly basis based on our processes. The software itself will look to see how often it needs updates. It's pretty straightforward.
Based on what I have seen, I rate the solution's scalability a seven out of ten.
I didn't use the licensed software version of VMware Workstation, because of which I can't comment on its efficiency.
Though I am unsure, I feel that six to seven users use the solution for their personal use in my company.
Currently, I don't plan to use the version offered by VMware Workstation.
It's scalable.

The scalability of the VMware Workstation is good. We are able to add multiple ESXi servers into the vCenter and scale the requirements according to the client's needs. It can scale very well.

Systems and Security Administrator at a hospitality company with 51-200 employees
On Windows 7 - I can run 2 VMs (I have a beefy Workstation with 2 quad core Xeon procs and two NVIDIA Quadro Cards as well as 16 GB RAM) It does not play well when there are more than 2 windows VMs running on top of a Windows host environment. Update - I have a new machine with an i7 6700 processor - it is more than adequate to run the base Windows 8.1 OS, another Windows 8.1 OS a Windows 7 OS, and an Ubuntu 16.04 OS simultaneously. I do this on a daily basis at work and the performance is great. I use a SSD for the base Windows OS and the other OS's live on a larger 3 TB drive that I use for virtual machine/server work.

This solution is scalable - you can install it on your system and run a number of VMs which connect back to the central data, so it's inter-connectable, connecting access to VPNs.
