            Very cool recap this week! Congrats on all the posts covered, and of course congrats to the VMCE+ blog post winners. They were great!

            Thanks for sharing a bit more info on the VeeamON’s ​@Rick Vanover . I’m still sad there’s no dedicated conference, but I’ll adjust 😉

            Welcome to all new Community members.

            I hope you all have a great weekend!

                  Congrats to all other winners of Veeam University Pro. I have no doubts that it'll helps a lot on our carrer.
