Unitrends VM Backup Essentials, anyone used?
-
Just curious if anyone has used it yet? As a current Veeam customer, this is pretty exciting for me so I can tear down the old Windows Veeam box and build a new VMware box and install this on it.

Yeah, I wish they did with the cheap entry-level version. I'm gonna try installing on XCP-ng to see what happens anyway.

Why not use Xen Orchestra Community Edition? Full backup suite included for free.

The environment is all VMware already. XCP-ng and XOCE are in my lab.

For the time being, not sure you'll be able to find something better than Veeam.

I was a Unitrends user but switch to Nakivo.
-
The only one I used in production is Altaro.
-
I have not used it, I use XOA and Veeam.

deployed Altaro in may last job: cheaper than Veeam and really nice (also support has always been really reactive).
I gave Nakivo a 1 day try (short of time) but it doesn't convice me at the time.
