With the new Veeam Availability Suite 9.5 Update 4, not only the Veeam Backup&Replication Free edition has been discontinued, but also the Veeam ONE Free edition will be discontinued and replaced with a new Community Edition, like happened with the Veeam Backup & Replication.

This means that more functionality will be available within the community edition compared with the previous free version.

Of course there are still some limitations, for example:

  • Only one Veeam B&R (paid or community edition) can be added
  • Application level monitoring
  • No email customization
  • Some reporting functionality is not available
  • Plus some more

Available up to 10 instances, if the 10 instances are violated reporting functionality will be unavailable.

NEW Veeam® ONE™ Community Edition is Veeam’s must-have gift to IT pros, offering a FREE way to leverage the powerful monitoring and reporting capabilities of Veeam ONE and providing a feature-rich introduction to the product’s functionality.

Veeam ONE 9.5 Update 4 editions

But there are also more ‘fine print’ limitations meaning, some features are available but at a limited capacity.

With NEW Veeam ONE Community Edition, you can closely monitor and ensure the Availability of critical workloads and infrastructures by easily detecting issues before they have operational impact with:
