I understand your concerns, but as our SE is telling you, the price increase indeed comes from a lot of additional extras. We have been a Veeam client close to 10yrs now - this is the first time that I have been compelled to look for alternatives. We use Veeam for it's core competencies - Backup and Restore, the "extras" are all nice but they are ultimately not part of the value for us, simply put feature bloat has found it way into Veeam products and is driving the prices up - and in our cases this jump is not incremental it is exponential. In talking with the Veeam SE locally Veeam defends these cost increases as a increase in features, I get that - but 90% of what we do is what we have done all along, simple backups and restores.

So this has me giving a hard look at options and looking at downgrading our ENT+ license to possible ENT only or STD to try and stay within budget.
Not to give specifics for us but this is a jump from thousands of $ for renewal to 10s of thousands. Our quote for 3yr renewal is 3x (3 times) what is cost when I last renewed 3yrs ago.
We are currently on Veeam Enterprise Plus. We are in the process of renewing our Veeam Subscription/Support - we do our renewals every 3yrs.
