Q&A Highlights
Question: Any users have experience with Veeam Backup Solutions?
Answer: Veeam is a good solution IF you have a Complete Virtual environment....they lack support on physical machines and most environments that have both physical & VM's to manage. The user should also make sure that their BU or replication solution has deduplication for efficiency and Veeam's solution is weak in this area... Regards, Tom

Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Replication and restore object in Exchange boxes with possibility to select part of Microsoft directory.""From my experience, Veeam is very good. Its interface is user-friendly. We can restore it whenever. It's not complicated. It's very easy to manage and administration is very easy.""It is way easier to take backup with Veeam Backup & Replication than the regular ones.""The integration with some storage systems like HP or Nutanix and great support are the most valuable features. You get productivity support. You get a response within one hour, even in the evening or night. The functionality of the whole software is good.""Provides lots of reporting and visualization of how much data has been transferred.""The initial setup was very easy.""The solution is quite stable.""It lets you verify a backup with the least amount of effort."

More Veeam Backup & Replication Pros →

"The feature that we have found most valuable is its traffic plan. The traffic plan is very good.""I like the backup and backup copy features.""Veeam ONE has proven to be a reliable tool not just for backups but also for general hypervisor management.""The best feature of Veeam ONE to me is the infrastructure analysis that you can perform before deploying a backup environment. You can put in your backup requirements, for example, repository files and improvements on your VMware side, to ensure that it runs optimally. Pricing for Veeam ONE is also cheaper than VMware vRealize Operations (vROps) which is a direct competitor in the ops space, so this is another advantage of the solution.""The product is very straightforward and very easy to use from the client-side.""Veeam ONE effectively centralizes the view of different tools.""Setting up Veeam is easy, and it's portable, too.""The solution's customer service is good."

Cons
"I have a problem with the VM. When we started doing a backup, it takes a snapshot for our virtual machines, but when we try it two or three times, in some cases, our virtual machines go to a consolidated state. I don't know why this problem happens. But I still think Veeam is a top-ranking solution.""Its native capability for talking to the public cloud needs improvement. Connecting to a public cloud is a little bit more of a challenge when it comes to Veeam than it is with Rubrik or Commvault. There are still some hoops that you got to jump through in order to send Veeam backups out to public cloud repositories. It is not as simple as it is with other products.""The solution could improve by having more user-friendly dashboards.""Could offer a better conclusion of the backups.""The cloud part of it can be improved. There should be an option for Veeam in your own cloud, as compared to the Veeam cloud offering that's currently there. The rest of it is easy.""Its import and export processes for information and policies could be better.""We have had problems with some jobs. For example, when we have a VM with a large SQL Database, sometimes we cannot adjust the time for transaction logs to back up and overlap time.""There's a situation where VMs run on different locks. It's running on the VM while having a relationship with nearby solutions running on the same server and storage. This creates a bottleneck that needs to be eliminated."

More Veeam Backup & Replication Cons →

"The solution could improve the performance. We are not able to check the status of any system. Additionally, if there was an option to monitor server clusters it would be helpful.""Veeam ONE could be improved if it had a better data recovery feature.""I am highly dissatisfied with their customer support approach.""We'd like to see them add more custom templates.""The product’s stability has certain issues and needs to be improved. The solution’s pricing could be also cheaper.""The support, reporting part and customization should all be improved.""Veeam One has its ransomware monitoring, but it's based on static parameters.""The threshold could be easier to configure."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "If you have Exchange, Oracle, SQL, or a supported SAN, then I suggest getting at least an Enterprise edition. It’ll pay for itself in no time."
  • "The pricing and licensing is better than the competitors, but it could be better."
  • "Room for improvement is actually more in the way of licensing. The really good and useful features are in the Enterprise plus edition, and that one is really expensive."
  • "Since pricing is per socket, it is not expensive to add capacity as you go along."
  • "The licensing is based on the number of cores you have in your ESX or Hyper-V environment."
  • "The price is a bit high. Licensing type is VMware friendly, so it is easy."
  • "I think the price is good when you choose the Essentials Suite, but when you buy a full featured version (for instance the Enterprise Plus) the price is a little bit expensive."
  • "Setup cost and licensing of Veeam are nothing to complain about when compared to similar products for enterprise backup recovery solutions."
  • More Veeam Backup & Replication Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "For what it does, the price is acceptable."
  • "If you have Veeam Backup and Replication with the essential license then this solution is free. If you were to purchase Veeam ONE by itself it is priced cheaper than competitors."
  • "The licenses are code-based or server-based for Veeam ONE. The last version is 12, and it is host-based, I don't like to move to a code-based solution."
  • "Veeam has been raising its prices in the last two years, so it's now lacking some competitiveness in pricing."
  • "I have not used the resale license in our testing environments. Sometimes, our customers used the trial license for 30 days and so on."
  • "I don't pay for the solution, so I can't comment on the cost."
  • "The cost is based on the number of core servers."
  • "Our licensing cost is $200 a year."

    Yes I have has a chance to do a POC for the Veeam backup and replication product. And to be honest I had a good experience of trying the product and the capabilities with VMware along with this product are somethings that I was impressed with. Other products can also do almost all the similar things but they in addition to cater to the Virtual environment and are also efficient in handling the physical environments.. But Veeam is purposely built only for virtualized infrastructure.

    Reviews from Real Users

    Veeam Backup & Replication is a solution that stands out when compared to many of its competitors. Some of its major advantages are its ease of set up, the fact that it is agentless, and that it has an intuitive dashboard. 

    A Network Operations Manager at an educational organization says, "Integration with VMware is excellent with very granular recovery."

    An Inside Solutions Architect at a tech services company mentions, “I like that it's agent-less, easy to set up, and hardware-agnostic.”

    An Account Manager at a tech services company states, “The dashboard is very, very easy to understand. We do demonstrations all the time with customers just to show them. If they've lost particular files because of a server going down, we can retrieve those files for them and quickly bring those files back up.”

    Kerem C., Director of Professional Services/Senior Solution Architect/Trainer at a tech services company, explains, “It's good for backup performance management and backup window management.”

    Veeam ONE, part of Veeam Availability Suite, provides a comprehensive monitoring and analytics solution for backup, virtual and physical environments. With support for Veeam Backup & Replication and Veeam Agents, as well as VMware vSphere, Microsoft Hyper-V and Nutanix AHV, Veeam ONE delivers deep, intelligent monitoring, reporting, and automation through interactive tools and intelligent learning, identifying and resolving real customer problems before they begin:

    • Intelligent automation and diagnostics: Employ built-in intelligence to identify and resolve common infrastructure and software misconfigurations via built-in intelligence and improve response times through.
