Hi @chas ...I just checked it out. Looks slick! Very well done. Thanks for sharing!
Yeah, these were posted in the Vanguard slack last week when the update was done, and they are looking great now. Started to use them to test them out. 
Nice one!
Entirely new UI. It question of time to get used to it.
Thanks for @chas!
Looks awesome. Will try them out soon. Appreciate the effort that is put into this
Hi, the new calculator looks very nice!
I have tested it a bit and the range of functions is great.
I have 2 ideas for enhancements:
It would be good if there was a function in the calculator to export (Excel + PDF) and save the whole project (import + export json) like in VSE Builder.
And it would also be cool if the individual workloads could be added together (e.g. to calculate the backup storage size of VMs, agents, unstructured...).
@chas where is the best place to give feedback as the calculator site does not have a feedback option like KB pages, etc.? See above from Pete.
@chas , congratulations to you and the team! I analyzed it superficially, and it looks complete. These improvements are very welcome!

@chas Sorry for the addition
What would also be very, very cool, would be an RV Tools import into the two calculators like there was previously in VSE.

Thanks @PeteSteven. Yeah, we went back and forth on an Export facility on the new calc and I made the executive decision to keep it just on the Scenario Builder. If I get enough requests though… :-)
Interesting idea on summing the workloads. Again, this feels a bit more like a Scenario Builder feature to me but I can see the value of putting it in the regular calc. Apart from overhauling the calculation engine, we haven’t started on the SB UI yet - it’s still the ‘old style’ so doesn’t include all workloads etc. We do have some interesting ideas on how/what to export and import from there, as well as how to present the data in the UI.
Look out for future iterations, and thanks again for the feedback and suggestions!

Let me ask: Any issue with that being a Dell tool now? Would you rather there was a Veeam equivalent? No promises, just curious. And yes, import is on the roadmap for the Scenario Builder. No promises on timeline just yet.

Thanks for the information!
If this is intended for the Scenario Builder, does it also get an extended scope with tape calculations and co like the Calculator?
@chas where is the best place to give feedback as the calculator site does not have a feedback option like KB pages, etc.? See above from Pete.
@Chris.Childerhose there is a Forums thread, and this thread for now. We do manage and track FR’s and updates internally from these sources but there’s no integration currently (we are not part of R&D 
). We are considering a Feedback button but it didn’t make this release (we also need to figure out routing etc). We are going to launch a Thematic Hub here soon, so that might be what we use for now. It will also give us a platform to better share some of the gazillion other projects my team works on.

Sorry, I don't understand what you mean by Dell tool? The VSE (vse.veeambp.com) was also from you, wasn't it?

Sounds like a good plan. Thanks for chiming in on this so everyone knows. Looking forward to the thematic group as well.

He means RVTools - they were bought by Dell.

Well, no promises ... but there is only one engine on the backend and it contains everything you see in the new calc (and more). It really comes down to the UI redesign in SB to poke the appropriate APIs for a response and format them (sigh, I make it sound so easy - spoiler- it’s not). Like I said, updating the SB is on the roadmap. Thanks.

Great, I'm looking forward to the new version. The new calculator makes a lot of things easier. Great release!

Oh, sorry. I wasn't aware of that.
Sorry @chas my mistake!
Great if the import will be integrated into the SB again 
Any chance the calculator could be changed to allow for GFS calculations beyond 7 years? We bill most customers based on consumption with 1-year contracts (VCSP) but we have a lead wanting to retain 30 years of monthlies and wondering what that storage might look like long term. Looks like the latest calculator only lets you go out 7 years on GFS, and the previous version only does 10.
Hi @chas ...I just checked it out. Looks slick! Very well done. Thanks for sharing!
I agree with this statement! I will be including this in the guide I am creating for Synology “ds923+ as a backup repository for vbr”
Very nice. I’ll use these often. Thanks
