Veeam Data Platform Essentials — 5-Year Renewal, 30-Instance Universal License, 24/7 Production Support

Discover a scalable, enterprise-grade data protection solution designed to simplify backup, recovery, and data management across on-premises, cloud, and hybrid environments. This package combines Veeam Data Platform Essentials with a five-year renewal subscription, upfront billing, around-the-clock production support, and access to Enterprise Plus Edition features, all under a universal 30-instance license. Ideal for mid-to-large organizations seeking robust data resilience, streamlined orchestration, and predictable budgeting through a single license model and a long-term support plan.

• 5-Year Renewal Subscription with Upfront Billing: This plan locks in predictable budgeting, ensuring continuous protection without surprise price changes. It provides a stable renewal cadence over five years, reduces administrative tasks related to license management, and guarantees access to ongoing product updates, security enhancements, and enterprise-grade support across the entire license term. By consolidating renewal obligations into a single upfront arrangement, IT teams can focus on resilience planning rather than license administration, which translates to faster project delivery and fewer licensing interruptions.
• Universal Subscription License for 30 Instances: A flexible, scalable license that covers virtual machines, physical servers, and cloud workloads. Deploy across diverse environments, reallocate licenses as needs shift, and expand capacity without complex re-licensing. This universal approach simplifies procurement and provides a consistent protection layer for growing IT estates. With 30 protected instances, organizations can consolidate protections, reduce licensing fragmentation, and maintain uniform backup policies across heterogeneous infrastructure.
• 24/7 Production Support: Around-the-clock access to expert engineers, rapid triage for critical incidents, and proactive guidance to prevent downtime. With guaranteed response times and escalation paths, your team can maintain business continuity even during peak workloads or outages. This support framework helps you meet strict service level objectives, accelerates incident resolution, and minimizes the mean time to recover (MTTR) for mission-critical systems.
• Enterprise Plus Edition Features: Unlock advanced capabilities such as enhanced backup orchestration, deeper monitoring, SureBackup verification, advanced replication options, and scalable storage integration. These features empower IT teams to optimize protection strategies, accelerate recovery, and gain deeper visibility across their data estate. By leveraging automated testing, granular recovery controls, and robust orchestration workflows, organizations can reduce backup windows, improve RPOs and RTOs, and achieve stronger regulatory compliance.
• Comprehensive Data Protection Across Environments: Protect data across on-premises, public cloud, and hybrid deployments with centralized management, consistent policies, encryption at rest and in transit, and robust ransomware protection workflows. Simplified recovery, rapid restores, and reliable DR readiness help maintain uptime and customer trust. This approach provides a single pane of glass for policy enforcement, cross-environment object protection, and streamlined disaster recovery testing, ensuring preparedness regardless of where data resides.

How to install Veeam Data Platform Essentials

Follow these high-level steps to deploy the solution smoothly and minimize disruption to daily operations:

• Assess and plan: Inventory all protected systems, identify critical workloads, define RPOs and RTOs, and map backup windows to business cycles to avoid peak production conflicts. Establish a clear protection strategy that aligns with business priorities and regulatory requirements.
• Prepare licensing and access: Activate the universal 30-instance license within the Veeam management console and align it with your five-year renewal timeline and support entitlement. Ensure license keys are securely stored and accessible to designated administrators.
• Prepare infrastructure: Deploy or designate backup repositories, define storage targets, configure proxy components, and provision cloud targets if you plan cross-environment protection. Validate network connectivity, performance baselines, and storage capacity to support the planned protection level.
• Install and configure components: Install the required Veeam components (backup server, proxies, and repositories) and apply best-practice security settings, encryption, and job templates to standardize protection across workloads. Implement role-based access control and enable automated alerts for backup health and retention compliance.
• Create and run backup jobs: Create backup, replication, and archive jobs with appropriate retention policies, test restores periodically, and monitor health through the Enterprise Plus edition features for proactive protection. Optimize retention and deduplication settings to balance storage efficiency with recovery objectives.
• Validate recovery readiness: Execute recovery drills to verify restore integrity, document recovery time objectives, and ensure stakeholders are aware of DR procedures. Schedule regular testing and document results to demonstrate resilience for audits and leadership reviews.
