What is the best virtualization tool?

Question

Recently, my team spent too many hours building machines with previous product releases or database servers with specific patches. In some cases, we started the development machine in three days. Obviously, this would be ideal for using a virtual machine. I am trying to uphold the practice of creating a virtual image of client releases. In the past, I used VMware for development and testing, but I was wondering if anyone has any other virtualization tools with which they had good experience?

We are developing Java on computers running Windows XP.
