License Consumption
Veeam Data Cloud is licensed per user or terabyte (TB). Each licensed unit under protection consumes the license at a Point Per Unit (PPU) rate. In comparison with software licensed workloads, Veeam Data Cloud PPU is based on the SaaS Pricing curve. If you already have a software rental agreement, the number of points available to you in terms of this agreement will be inherited by the SaaS rental licensing but the SaaS pricing rate will be applied. For example, if you have a 800 Point software rental agreement, you will have 800 SaaS points at the SaaS pricing rate.
Veeam Data Cloud licensing plans are managed either as standalone subscriptions or as part of a bundle. You can hold only one active subscription for the same product at a time: whether the product is provisioned individually or as part of a bundle.
You can move from standalone to bundle licensing plan or from bundle to standalone plan, depending on your business needs and product usage. For more information, see Switching Between Standalone and Bundle Licensing Plans.
Bundle Licensing Plans
Veeam Data Cloud bundles combine multiple products into a subscription package. Microsoft 365 is designated as the primary product, and its PPU rate applies to the entire bundle. License consumption from other products is converted to the primary product consumption using predefined ratios. You can protect up to three Entra ID member users for every backed-up Microsoft 365 user.
