Appliance or Windows
to answer this question you have to read this only 4 different
before you deiced
1
– Missing features?
vcenter appliance are missing " Linked Mode, vCenter Server
Heartbeat (EoA) and SQL
Server support." only support oracle as a remote database server .

vCenter Server appliance will support an inventory size of up to 100 vSphere hosts and/or 3,000 Virtual Machines
You can use an external database to meet the vCenter maximum
scale of up to 1,000
vSphere hosts and/or 10,000 Virtual Machines.
Oracle is only supported remote database . that is means you have
Microsoft SQL server you will not working

Linux suse is strong OS - very lite - doesn't need

you didn't need for antivirus license
Linux experience : tweaking - moving -
troubleshooting scenario or require additional configuration settings
4
– Migrating to the vCenter Server
appliance
We do not have any migration/data tools available to move your
vCenter Server on Windows to the vCenter Server appliance. You will have to
deploy a fresh vCenter Server appliance and manually recreate
the configuration and manually move
the vSphere hosts over to the new vCenter Server appliance. Do you have any
auditory requirements? historical data will be lost with the manual migration
process and vCOPs will see the vCenter Server appliance as a new vCenter Server
environment. This manual process could be eased with the use of PowerCLI but
unique to each environment. Using an existing vCenter Server database is not an
option.
5- Vcenter appliance dosn't suportt Heartbeat
6- not compatible with Vspahre storage appliance
