The free Veeam Agent for Microsoft Windows supports Windows 7, Windows 8.1, Windows 10, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2012 and even Windows Server 2016. There’s another setting that you can use to prevent backups by making it pause for a couple of hours or days. In the current day and age of ransomware, this adds much appreciated additional data security.Īnother neat trick is that you can have the Veeam Agent start a backup automatically when you insert removable media you declared as valid backup media for the tool. It begs the question: why would you use a 3rd party tool and go the route of integration testing, life cycle management and vulnerability management?įirst, the Veeam Agent for Microsoft Windows offers a feature that Windows Backup doesn’t offer: You can configure the agent to eject the removable media it just finished a backup on. While the Veeam Agent for Windows can be used as a stand-alone back-up and restore solution for any Windows system on removable media, Of course, Windows and Windows Server come with the free Windows Backup tool and wbadmin.exe that offer the same functionality. The Veeam Agent for Microsoft Windows Free fills this place with proud, not just for backup and restore purposes, but also for migrations and automatic development, test and acceptance environments. My Dutch customers are on the front lines of achieving their goals with the least amount of financial resources.
so the promise of a free tool is something I applaud. Now that Veeam has released the Agent, let me tell you why. I’ve been using the Beta of the agent for a couple of months and the more I used it and the more I read on why Veeam introduced this tool, and how it fits into Veeam’s current technology and strategy, the more I want to use this tool I feel it’s amazing. Veeam released its freeAgent for Microsoft Windows (version 2.0.0.700).
