Veeam for Office 365 Community edition licensing

[vnewbie99]

Hi,
I am new to Veeam. I am trying it out to back up our SharePoint Online sites which are small and there are only few users using them. My question is: The Community edition says "Up to 10 users and 1 TB of SharePoint data." What does "10 users" mean? If I have 100 users in Azure AD but only 5 users using a SharePoint Online site and I only want to back up that site, will the Community edition comply with the licensing?

Thanks.

Veeam will use a license for each user, which has granted access (permissions) to this site.
If you have allowed all 100 users to access this site, you will need 100 licenses.
If you have only allowed 5 Users to access the site, only 5 licenses will be required.
Guest access users are not required to license.

Microsoft SharePoint Online and on-premises Microsoft SharePoint personal sites
Additionally, each user in your Office 365 subscription (or on-premises deployment) that has been granted access to team, communication, collaboration and other non-personal SharePoint sites that you plan to back up must be licensed. If you have a hybrid SharePoint deployment (on-premises Microsoft SharePoint and SharePoint Online), and the same user has access to both, then only one Veeam license is required.

Thanks Mildur. For community edition it is a bit different though. You have a maximum of 10 users (they are free) and you can protect whatever SharePoint sites up until 1 TB.

So in your example, you will certainly comply. But even if those 100 users are accessing that SharePoint site, you are complying as well. The rules that Mildur wrote perfectly are for the commercial editions.

Thanks for clarification.
I wasn't aware of that
