Hi All and welcome to this little corner of the Internet! The purpose of this space is to serve as a community hub for those working for Veeam Certified Service Providers, specifically those in North America. As we all know that SP life comes with it’s own challenges and opportunities and we hope that you find this forum a place to learn and grow your knowledge and capabilities to provide better outcomes to your customers but also within your own career.

Let’s take a second and introduce ourselves as your group leaders:

  • Jim Jones. Sr Product Infrastructure Architect @ 11:11 Systems and Veeam Vanguard
  • Tim Hudson. Principal Solutions Architect @ Veeam and Veeam MVP
  • Chris Childerhose. Lead Infrastructure Architect @ ThinkOn and Veeam Vanguard, Legend
  • Tyler Jurgens. Cloud Infrastructure Engineer @ Stage2Data and Veeam Legend
  • Derek Loseke. Senior Systems Engineer @ Kidwell and Veeam Legend

All of us as well as all of you have been around the block with Veeam and want to help make us all better. We’ve all been there for the nights when we look like this:

Working as a community we can help make for a better experience for all and create an even better, more resilient set of solutions for our customers.

 

 User Group Ground Rules

As we are all pretty much by definition in some forms competitive to each other it’s worth noting that as the leaders we’ve decided on a few ground rules for the discussions here:

  1. This is not Veeam Technical Support. If you’ve got a problem with your environment please do not come here looking for how to fix your technical issue. We’re here to talk about problems for sure but we can’t provide fixes, code or registry keys that are gated by support.
  2. No FUD. While our employers all compete against each other there shouldn’t be any attempt to speak ill or undercut any of the VCSPs in this space. 
  3. No Sales. Yes some of us work for VCSPs with a partner program, this is not a place to try to increase those sales or partner counts.

I could not agree more with these sentiments from Jim when it comes to the challenges that VCSPs face.  I have run in to many and hopefully through this group we can share tips, tricks, problems, solutions, etc. with each other to help learn and grow our skillsets.

Going to be a wild ride in 2024 so hang on tight.  😂

Welcome everyone! Service providers often deal with many challenges individual organizations never have to face. Its great to see a Service Provider specific group come together for Veeam!
