Why choose Free Backup for VMware?

Many small and medium sized businesses are running their business-critical servers on VMware vSphere environments for better resource utilization, easier manageability, minimal downtime, and cost savings. Though VMware has inbuilt snapshot functionality for the VMs, it is neither a complete nor a consistent method of backing up the business-critical virtual machines with restore points spanning for months or years.

Vembu BDR Suite offers a free backup solution that delivers a powerful, flexible, and agile data protection for VMware virtual machines at zero cost.

Key Features of Free VMware Backup

Agentless VM Backup – Configure image-level backups for VMware vSphere VMs running on ESXi host or vCenter Server without installing any agent inside VMs using VMware vStorage APIs.

vCenter Level Backup – Configure backups for VMs at the ESXi or vCenter level. When configuring backup at the vCenter level, the VM will be backed up seamlessly even if it moves from one host to another.

Backup Multiple VMs – Backup multiple VMs irrespective of size, type, application, data, and operating systems in a single backup job.

Automatic Backup Scheduling – Automate the backups of VMware VMs by scheduling the backups flexibly on an hourly/daily/weekly basis.

Application-Aware Image Backup – Ensure the consistency of the application & its database with application-aware processing or the VMs running on your ESXi host or vCenter server

Log Truncation – Automatically truncate the transaction logs for Microsoft Exchange & SQL database running in the VMs to save storage space.

Instant Boot VM – Instantly recover the backup data as a VM directly from the backup data on VMware, Hyper-V, and KVM environment to ensure the business continuity.

Full VM Recovery – Permanently restore the backed up data of VMware VMs to the same or different ESXi host or vCenter server after any disaster.

Instant File-Level Recovery – Granularly restore the files and folders of the backup VMs directly from the UI of the backup server console without restoring an entire virtual machine.

What Our Customers Say

We have been using Vembu for years and the BDR suite is an example of the excellent software we have come to expect from Vembu. It has the features we are looking for, but most important of all, it is stable. We tried multiple vendors through the years until we finally came across his company. We stayed with them because when we need to do a restore and routine check, the backup data is there.
We have used other backup/DR tools in the past which have always failed when you need them most, we ended up doing the backups manually which became too much. We then found and tested Vembu and It’s so easy to use, we can connect remotely to keep an eye on the tasks and the whole setup is a joy to use. Support is also fantastic, they are quick at responding and very helpful and informative.
