      Not SO bad. Still a hefty percentage.

        That was originally a V7 license for $793.
        I just found another invoice from a different client that purchased v8 @ $823

        So Veeam is incrementally jacking up their price as v9 is $950.

          Is that an upgrade cost or a new installation for these clients?

            Those are new costs. That is all that is on their website.

            I am still waiting on my vendor to get me the renewal pricing.

                      Right, but also not happy with increasing costs for their software.

                        Feels like dealing with the cable company and unexplained price hikes....

                          Why not? Do you not get a pay raise nearly yearly. Why should you get to get more money (mostly due to inflation), but not them?

                          it's true that many companies don't raise prices yearly, but plenty that do. Often those that don't, they don't because competition prevents them from doing so, while remaining competitive.

                            That is certainly a bit leap as a percentage of the price. But considering how many people choose their hypervisors based on the availability of Veeam (I get told this on SW constantly) it would make sense for Veeam to raise their prices. They seem to have an audience that is, on average, willing to pay rather an extremely high amount to work with them. Makes sense that they would leverage that.

                            Considering the continued density that VM hosts are getting, it also makes sense that vendors in a space like this would need to continue to raise their prices to profits at a near flat rate. Two years ago you might have needed 2 servers to handle your workload, therefore you needed two Veeam licenses, but today you only need one server, and therefore for one Veeam license.

                              Actually, no I do not.

                              I am not happy with the amount of the increase. I never said a company should not or cannot raise their costs.

                                Considering my other theory, I'm not surprised with the hike. Happy, maybe not, but surprised, nah!

                                Another question - how often are you buying new licenses?

                                And when you compare prices, what beats it?

                                  Nothing beats it yet on price for paid solutions that work with Hyper-V.

                                  Unitrends free is a possibility for this particular client.
