Licencing

Thread needs solution

Hello,

I am purchasing Acronis Backup and I just want to have more details in licencing model.

In our infrastructure, we have:

- 3 Windows servers 2008

- 2 Hyper-V with Windows VM

BR,

Didier.

Hi Didier,

for basic Backup and Recovery tasks you could use Acronis Backup 12, wich is also capable of backing up Hyper-V hosts and its VMs, also supports various Microsoft products (SQL-Server, Exchange, Active Directory), see here for a complete list: https://kb.acronis.com/content/58269

In your infrastructure you would need 3 physical (Acronis Backup Server) and 2 virtual (Acronis Backup Virtual Host) host licenses. It is licensed per host basis, please refer to the license FAQ: https://kb.acronis.com/content/58279

There are perpetual licenses which includes 1 year of maintenance and upgrades and also subscription licenses including up to 3 years of maintenance and upgrades which can be renewed.

Acronis offers a Cloud Backup solution which allows you to backup you infrastructure to a secure datacenter hosted by Acronis, you can also install the shipped Management Server to manage your backups locally, it depends on your needs. For the Cloud Backup you probably would need additional Cloud Storage licenses.

Thanks!
