Initial purchase of annual licensing for 1,000 VBO licenses billed annual.Veeam really should invest in a Microsoft approach to SAAS license management and allow us to ad-hoc increase/decrease the counts with something like a min qty. The problem is that they sell via reseller/VARs who get a cut/discount - so we can't direct bill to Veeam like we can with Microsoft. Plus it's a PITA to add licenses as you have to go through your VAR/Reseller each time. This though still would require either having two renewal periods, or renewing the 'old' licensing for an additional period of time vs just doing $100,000 and get an Enterprise Agreement

Buy extra each time to only do 2-3 a year.It seems like our only option for this is to either Thanks for taking the time to address this question, hope you have a good week. If you can pass anything to the higher ups, that would be it. The forced contracts accompanied by tons of additional overhead and risk, and then wrapped up in the misleading language really seals my perception of Veeam. The real problem here is that Veeam is effectively forcing existing customers into entering new contracts and annual subscriptions, while their language conveys a very different practice, one that the other SAAS vendors out there follow - simply, co-terming licenses to whatever subscription is already in place. There is also the risk of missing one of many expiration/renewal dates, resulting in halted backups and potential data loss. However, managing multiple subscriptions multiplies the amount of overhead involved in quoting, approving, purchasing and managing this one single product.
