There are several options, depending on what you are going to use them for.

In the past, I have used VMware, VirtualBox and Xen.

Of the three, I can say that VMware seemed to be the more developed.
At my previous place of employment, It was used and is still being
used on a daily basis to provide virtual application servers. It is
very robust, stable and scalable. Once set up, it requires hardly any
maintenance.

I have used VirtualBox to provide myself a test environment on my
desktop machine at home. It provides me without a virtual network of
virtual machines which allows me to build up and tear down machines at
a whim. I have not used this in a business production environment,
however.

When I did use Xen, it was several years ago. Xen may have improved
considerably since then. It took me some time to set it up. This was
on Xen 2.0. I wrote something about it on the Xen wiki at the time. I
didn't use Xen much since the user interface at that time, was not
very easy to use.

In the interim, the Linux kernel itself has come to include
virtualisation built in. So, you may not even need an external
product. However, I have no experience with this to guide you.

VMware provides freely downloadable versions of their products will
allow you to experiment with the concept. VirtualBox also has freely
downloadable versions.

VirtualBox in particular, is very easy to set up and use. I would
suggest you start with VirtualBox and experiment until you are
familiar with its use before moving on to the others.
