Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between socket-based licensing and subscription licensing for Veeam?
Socket-based licensing is a perpetual model where you purchase a license for a specific version, often tied to the number of CPU sockets. Subscription licensing is a recurring model that grants you the right to use the software for a defined term, typically including updates and support.
Will migrating to a subscription affect my current backup jobs?
The migration itself is a licensing change and should not directly impact your existing backup jobs. However, it is always recommended to perform a test migration or consult Veeam documentation to ensure a smooth transition.
What happens if I don't renew my Veeam subscription?
If a subscription is not renewed, you will typically lose access to the software and any associated support or updates. It is crucial to maintain an active subscription to ensure continuous data protection.
