The product is inexpensive. They offer customizable licensing models including perpetual and subscription-based licenses. However, I recommend using Backup Exec for customers using Microsoft products such as Windows Server as it offers more flexible pricing models.

From a distributor background, I've seen Veeam raise prices three times a year. With each new edition, they increase the price, making it hard to justify to customers. Their licensing model is simple and per-machine based, which is better than that of other vendors. However, they recently added a capacity-based backup for five shares. In general, my experience is that with every new feature or addition, there's a new price increase. In fact, last year, before I left the distributor, we increased prices a couple of times within the same quarter. We have to justify it by mentioning added features and enhancements. Some customers accept it, while others complain about the rising price every year. So, while Veeam's pricing isn't terrible even after the spikes, it's not stable. It keeps increasing. Compared to other vendors, Veeam's pricing is good. But compared to the past five years, it's constantly increasing. From my experience, all backup vendors should use capacity licenses, which control costs better. Veeam went for per-machine licensing to gain market share, and they succeeded. But that means they need to increase costs as they expand and add features. So, they have no choice but to keep raising prices.

The price is not low, but we get value for our money. We don't want a cheap product. We want a good product. The tool is reasonably priced for the quality it provides.
The solution provides flexible licensing options. We can have it perpetually. We can have it yearly or once in three years. We can also get the Veeam Universal License.
I acknowledge there are concerns about pricing, specifically in gaining more customers for VM. We've encountered difficulties in convincing them due to pricing issues. So, I rate it a six.
Veeam has a ten-license package gives you two physical and two virtual servers you can use on any endpoint. You have to pay for the solution. It's just for server backups, so a price would be there. The solution is not priced on its storage. If you have 20 terabytes of storage, you can add it to the solution.
The licensing model is an annual subscription, not too expensive. There are some additional costs, but it's not very expensive and you can choose any environment. I would rate the pricing a five out of ten, in the middle.
Veeam Data Platform is a collection of products and services that work together to provide a comprehensive data protection and management solution.
Veeam Data Platform is delivering Data Security, Data Recovery and Data Freedom to your entire hybrid environment, including cloud, virtual and physical workloads. Available in three powerful, enterprise-grade editions.
Since our Veeam license is perpetual, we only pay for annual maintenance.
The product is not that expensive. I rate the pricing a seven out of ten. It is economical.

The product must improve its pricing. Socket license for new users is also challenging. I rate the pricing a seven out of ten.
