Shares here are read over the models both editions asked, so they can differ by a point or two from the standing above, which counts every model in this edition.
The floor is 11 points of share, measured: how far the models move a leader on their own when the same questions are asked twice with nothing changed. A larger change is movement; a smaller one is noise, and both are shown. Movement is read over the twelve models both editions asked; GPT-6 Luna, Muse Glimmer 30B joined this edition and are in the standing but not yet in the comparison.

What the models said for it
Verbatim evidence the judge attached to positive labels.
“Veeam Data Platform and Acronis Cyber Protect are top contenders due to their comprehensive features, scalability, and strong industry reputation.” Mistral Small · Backup and DR · direct prompt · first choice
“highest position in "Ability to Execute" for five years in a row... Organizations prioritizing ease of use and strong ransomware recovery may favor Veeam” MiniMax M2.5 · Backup and DR · comparative prompt · first choice
“Gold winner in TechTarget's best enterprise data storage products of 2024... Veeam is strong for virtual / cloud workloads with deep restore validation” Muse Glimmer 30B · Backup and DR · comparative prompt · first choice
“Choose Veeam Data Platform if you need broad hypervisor / SaaS / on-prem hybrid coverage with mature restore automation and lower per-socket licensing” Muse Glimmer 30B · Backup and DR · direct prompt · first choice
And against it
Verbatim evidence attached to negative labels. A warning on a product with few labels is a warning; on a product with many, it is one voice among them.
“Veeam has had multiple critical RCE vulnerabilities ... allowing domain users to execute remote code” Kimi K2 · Backup and DR · negative prompt · soft negative

What carried it into the answer
The sites and pages cited by the answers that named Veeam Data Platform. A fact about retrieval, not a lever on the model.
Citations exist only for the models that return a source list, five of the fourteen in this edition, so these counts come from 133 of the 146 answers that named Veeam Data Platform and are not a share of its labels.

How it is countedHide how it is counted
Every page veeam.com exposes, subdomains included. Kind is read from the address and title. The last 90 days, the latest date and the twelve months count pages by when they were published, from the site's feeds, a date in the address, or the page's own publication date, read from up to a hundred of its most recently changed pages; a page that says only when it last changed is counted in its kind but not in when, so the recent counts are a floor, and a kind none of whose pages gives a publication date reads undated. An event counts as online when its address or title says so (webinar, on demand, virtual or online summit); a conference, summit, trade show, expo or roadshow that does not say so is counted as a conference or event, which on a vendor's site is mostly in person. Read September 29, 2026.
