Looks like they improved a few things. But I'll go for Veeam this time, even with ultra-cheap MS EDU licensing.
In one case, Veeam cost twice as much as SCDPM. So it's a toss up. Unitrends came in at the lowest.
Veeam can be super expensive. But people do it often without weighing other options first.
That surely depends on your environment. I agree, costs can explode quickly once you leave the "get 3 hosts backed up for cheap"-field. On the other hand - if you are this large, you probably have other things to worry about than 1,5k USD/socket for backup.

Yeah this is the number one factor here... i'm not telling anyone to use SCDPM... I'm just saying it's my favorite to use with Hyper-V... disregarding costs and such.
I'll probably never use SCDPM again... but it was awesome.

Tape tracking/management is super easy.
That's something I never understood in 2012r2 - tape guessing was actually a game we played at my last gig.

Yeah having to deal with that manually just straight up sucks.
In 2016, you label it all, it tracks what is where, which you to put in, when, etc... super easy and thoughtless once it's set up and labeled.

More like still writing... they still aren't finished with it. It was just recently they started supporting VMWare in it. 2012 R2 had it, but it took this damn long to have it in 2016.
