Every major Linux distribution has an automatic installation process. For Debian based distributions the search term is "preseed", for RedHat based distributions it is "kickstart", other distributions have other processes.
In VMware you can take a look at guest customizations. This only works for some major distributions that are supported by VMware, but it allows you to make certain modifications when cloning a VM, like the hostname, network settings, hard disk modifications.
All these processes are extensively documented.

Several. Product recommendations are off topic though. – Gerald Schneider Mar 23 '20 at 14:05

And it will be closed soon, because, as I already mentioned, product recommendations are off topic. – Gerald Schneider Mar 24 '20 at 14:56
