After more than one year since the last version, Veeam releases this week version 4.0 of its performance reporting tool for VMware vSphere: Reporter (formerly Reporter Enterprise).
Reporter 4.0 introduces a number of new features:
- Web-based access interface to the reporting engine
A new reporting engine, based on Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS), enables users to access reports via a web-based interface.
The interface can be customized and integrated with third party tools like Microsoft SharePoint. - New Change Management reports
Improved change management reports, including new audit information for changed objects, enable users to see the “who, what, where, when and how” of every change. If a VM suddenly disappears, slows down or stops working altogether, users can quickly identify not only what changed but also who made the change.
- New Capacity Planning reports
The product’s new capacity planning report pack projects future resource requirements based on historical growth and past performance. Reporter has the detailed data and built-in expertise needed to ensure service levels, even as demand grows.
The new version is priced at $375 per CPU socket.
