It's a matter of management in scale. It is much easier to manage agents which are deployed by VBR server : automatic discovery, updates, settings change and such, without need to logon ang change each machine separately.
Check out Agent Management Guide for details!

Ok.I find the license tab show instance being 10. Does I only backup at most 10 physical machines. If yes, I use veeam agent for windows replace, is it no any number limitation.

Ten instances is a limit of free Veeam Backup and Replication - Community Edition, to manage more workloads consider a paid version.
/Thanks!

Yes, I see you have 10 instances purchased. To protect more workstations you will need to add additional instance count to the existing license.
I will ask sales representative to contact you.
