Hello
I have already used the Product Selection Wizard but I doubt about it.
Our company has a next IT infrastructure (see the attachment).
We have chosen a solution for backing up VMs (vmProtect) and now need to choose a solution for physical servers.
We need to backup two physical Windows Server. After the analysis of different solutions I chose Acronis Backup & Recovery 11.5 Server for Windows.

Am I right? What is the total cost of licenses in my case? What is annual support cost?

Can I install Acronis Backup & Recovery 11.5 Server for Windows on a virtual machine (as shown in the attached figure)?

What alternative license you recommend?

For two physical machines you need two licenses = 2 * $859.00 . You can backup disks and volumes, and backup files with creating snapshots only if you install the product (agent component) on the machine itself. Suppot cost it calculated the same way as for vmProtect - AAP (advantage premier ) for one year included ( http://www.acronis.com/support/advantage.html ) , and annual renew (to AAP or cheaper AAS) is about 20-25% of product cost. Another choice is Advanced Server but it's more expensive, with centralized management and storage, tape support, remote management, etc.
