Before you buy
Per Microsoft's Product Terms, Standard Edition (like Branch Edition) may not be run on a server that is part of a networked cluster, and does not carry Enterprise Edition's unlimited virtualization rights — confirm virtualization and clustering needs before choosing Standard over Enterprise. Confirm your core count meets the 4-core-per-processor/VM minimum before you buy.
