Backing up VMware Zimbra

What is the best way to back up VMware Zimbra? It can be deployed as a Virtual Appliance or as a traditional Server installation. What is the recommended method for both scenarios?

I'm guessing something like Avamar backing up at the VM level should work in both cases, but since it won't be Application Consistent, is there an agent available to run in the guest OS to enable Application Consistent backups?

Looking for some guidance here.
