About Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager

Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager (Enterprise Manager) is a management and reporting component that allows you to manage multiple Veeam Backup & Replication installations from a single web console. Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager helps you optimize performance in remote office/branch office (ROBO) and large-scale deployments and maintain a view of your entire virtual environment.

The distributed architecture of Veeam Backup & Replication allows you to create a custom backup infrastructure that meets your company needs. Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager manages backup and replication according to your administrative, business and security requirements and restrictions. With a number of Veeam Backup & Replication instances installed on different servers, Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager acts as a single management point. It allows you to control license distribution, manage backup jobs across the backup infrastructure, analyze operation statistics of Veeam backup servers, perform restore operations, and so on.

In particular, with Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager you can:

  • Manage jobs across multiple Veeam backup servers.
  • View on-going reporting data for all jobs running on these servers, set up email notifications to get information on the status of all jobs.
  • Search for machines, file shares, object storage systems, and guest files in backups and replicas.
