Veeam Backup & Replication Web UI

The Veeam Backup & Replication web UI is a browser-based interface that enables you to manage backup and recovery operations, monitor your backup infrastructure, and configure system settings from any supported device. The web UI provides a modern, streamlined experience designed to simplify daily administration and deliver at-a-glance visibility into your data protection environment.

The overall look and feel of the Veeam Backup & Replication web UI is consistent with the Veeam product family, ensuring familiarity for users of the Veeam Backup & Replication desktop application and Veeam Enterprise Manager UI.
