Fun Friday: What was the first version of Veeam you used?

Time for everyone to show their age :grinning: what version of Veeam did you first use?

Bonus points if you remember the version of the first hypervisor you used it with!

OMG @vNote42 , never seen this interface of version 5.0 :smile:

I remember that colourful logo. :joy:

Well this fall is Veeam’s 15th anniversary….

So you may skip v12, v13 (could be questionable anyway :laughing: ) and v14?

I always say that the UI doesn't change that much over the years, but if I look at v5 then there are big differences compared to today.

Does anyone still have one of the first releases? Perhaps @Rick Vanover ?

Oh do I have a library… I believe I still can get access to version 1 or such.

My home library I think goes back to v4. Internally here we have it all.

I would love to check out version 1 and see how it all started. Any chance that you could share it with us?

With v1, Veeam was in a hard competition with Vizioncore - if someone can remember?

@MicoolPaul , great fun post :wink: . My first Veeam B&R version was version 8.0 on a Hyper-V host (don’t know the version anymore, but I think it was Windows 2012). On ESX 5.0 it was also version 8.0 of VBR.

OMG @vNote42 , never seen this interface of version 5.0 :smile:

Here are a few screeshots (out of the user-guide :slight_smile: ):

(Transport Mode have been a property of the backup job, not as today of the proxy)

scheduler with at least one option less than today

Thx @vNote42 , you see that it is an interface of Veeam, but during the years it has become more user-friendly, more logical and more intuitive I think ;-)

Veeam V7 and Vsphere 5.0 :nerd:

Well this fall is Veeam’s 15th anniversary….

I think something special is coming :sweat_smile: :wink:
