Hey folks! We're planning to ditch our Veeam backup solution due to their new licensing policy and I'm on the lookout for a more user-friendly alternative. I'd really appreciate any recommendations you might have! Thanks in advance!

If you need something budget-friendly, you might want to check out the VCSP license through your partner. It could save you some cash!
What new licensing policy are you referring to? I feel like I might have missed that news!
Whatever you do, stay away from Carbonite! It’s slow, the web GUI is frustrating, and there's just no good integration. Total headache!
Your choice really depends on your infrastructure and what your backup requirements are. I'd recommend looking at the Gartner quadrant for enterprise backup solutions to find one that fits your needs well.
I’ve tried Hycu and it worked fine, but I got tired of the 'contact us for a quote' routine. Nakivo seems to be a great alternative; I love their per workload pricing. Definitely giving that a try!
Acronis and Nakivo are both solid options with user-friendly features. Just remember, the best solution varies depending on your specific needs!
Hornetsecurity VM backup has been solid for us; definitely worth considering!
Before you make the switch, have you done a cost analysis? Sometimes it might not be worth it when you factor in all aspects like time and money. Just something to think about!
You know, it’s interesting how quickly some people decide to ditch a solution without double-checking the costs and benefits. What are you backing up, by the way? More details could help!
You should definitely look into Rubrik; I’ve heard really good things about it from backup engineers.
Acronis was pretty terrible about a decade ago; not sure how it is now, though.
