Good luck to al applicants! The crucial criteria are advanced knowledge of Veeam products, using them on a daily basis and passion for them demonstarted by the continuous activity through the past year. The competition is tough there, as the program has the limited number of seats. Let´s see in February how will look 2022 Vanguard class, when we´ll announce its members!  

I’ve applied this year, was rejected last year, but I wanted to see the questionnaire and confirm what I needed to align myself better towards the program and also whether the program was the right fit for me.

Now for round 2!

Fully agree with @Mildur and @JMeixner: Who if not @MicoolPaul ?

@MicoolPaul 

You will definitely make it Michael. I wish you luck.

Your Blogs, Your Community contribution, your appearances in the official veeam webinars.

Your are already a vanguard without the title

I will apply again! Agree with @Chris.Childerhose : Just try it! You just need strong nerves to hold out until the end of February. 

@marcofabbri its definitely worth it! IMHO VeeamVanguards AND VeeamLegends are the best community programs in the IT industry. 

thanks @Mildur one of my favourite things about this community is the support we all give each other. Fingers crossed!

As Rick said, you are the Vanguard Nr. 0! The prototype of a Veeam Vanguard. 

PS: Nothing ages better than Rick 

Good luck to all who have applied from this community, I’ll be cheering you all on

Everyone should apply no matter what.  Worse case you get declined then work towards the next one.  Great program for sure as I have been part since 2018 and submitted my renewal this year again. 

I will give it a try I think. I don’t have an own blog but blog on the website of my company and in this community of course . My management asked me to give also webinars and seminars in my country, so why not. As @Chris.Childerhose mentioned : worst case is that you get declined...

Thanks @wolff.mateus. I already wanted to ask the same. Especially how many Legends are going to apply

I have applied! Final result to be expected in February 2022 . 

Just passing to say that I submit my application right now.

I love to hear this! @Chris.Childerhose  I agree! Everyone should apply

I will be applying considering I have a blog and the Vanguard program is more external focused. 

You guys are honestly too much!  And I wanna thank you all for all the support over the past year or so on this forum, as it’s really helped motivate me to write and share more with you all. Best Community EVER.

Who’s more here on community are going to apply?

Let’s talk about!

You got this without a doubt @MicoolPaul and will be great to see you in the program.

Thanks for the head up 

Veeam Vanguard is for Veeamfluencer. I don‘t have an own blog or website. :-(

I should try to start something next year.

Sorry, the picture was completely out of context

Absolutely true! 

Ok folks, you have convinced me to to give this a try too Veeam Communities are so much fun and so educational, the more the better!!!

I need a blog so next week I will start one up @NikolaPejkova can you update my application to say I have a blog .

So now the hard part.. what to name my blog. I think BBBARR… this will trick those thirsty IT nerds into thinking they can get beverages and lure them in, when in fact it will stand for Burke’s Brilliant Backups And Resilient Restores!!!!

Good Luck everyone!!

cheers

Will be the end of February … I am already biting my fingernails

Thank you @NikolaPejkova 

Well I would definately apply for this program as well :)
