VEEAM LICENSING HAS CHANGED
From December 31st 2022, Veeam® stopped selling per-socket licences to new customers for Veeam Backup & Replication™.
The Veeam Universal Licence (VUL) was introduced back in 2019 as a portable, per-workload annual-subscription licence to provide flexibility across on-premise and multi-cloud environments.
Selected Veeam partners are facilitated to also offer Veeam Cloud & Service Provider (VCSP) Licences which deliver the same benefits, greater flexibility and in most cases better value than VUL.
VUL or VCSP: which option provides best-value for your business?
Veeam Universal Licence (VUL)
VUL subscriptions are purchased with full Enterprise Plus features, in blocks of 5-10 instances, on annual or multi-annual contracts. Reductions in licence count are available at subscription-renewal. Increases can be included via separate licence contracts or co-terming.
Veeam Cloud & Service Provider Licence (VCSP)
The VCSP subscription allows you to still purchase individual Standard and Enterprise feature-set licences, so you only pay for exactly what you need. VCSP can be sold yearly but is also available as a monthly subscription with no cost penalty. This enables the flexibility to remove or add licences as your requirement reduces or grows.
VCSP Licence Benefits
- Same portable workload flexibility as VUL
- Available with Standard and Enterprise feature sets
- No annual lock-in
- 30-day subscription, monthly billing with no cost penalty
- No need to buy in bundles of 5-10 licences as with VUL
- Only pay for what you use
- Easily true-up and true-down
- Lowest-price licensing model
- Available as a fully-managed service
