Ransomware recovery has become validated and protects critical workloads across multiple accounts
The account onboarding process deploys around 20 IAM roles per account, which is heavy. Consolidating those or offering a slimmer permission set for read-only backup (versus full restore) would help with security review friction. Cross-account restore into a target account still requires manual steps for KMS. If Clumio could handle re-encrypting with the target account's CMK during restore rather than requiring Multi-Region Key pre-staging, that would save significant preparation time. Also, the restore API could surface better progress telemetry since right now, large RDS restores are a bit of a black box until they complete or fail. Finally, DocumentDB and MongoDB Atlas backup support would round out our stack nicely.

Backup operations have become reliable and reporting now simplifies hybrid cloud protection
Veeam Data Platform has Veeam Enterprise Manager as well as Veeam ONE as valuable features, which allow us to generate various kinds of reports that are required for the customer. Instant VM Recovery is a good feature of the high-speed recovery features in Veeam Data Platform, and Continuous Data Protection (CDP) is also a good feature. Ransomware protection is a good feature added in Veeam Data Platform from version 12 onwards, and the ability to create immutable repositories is also a good feature in Veeam. The analytics part of Veeam Data Platform is a good solution because I have worked on various backup technologies such as EMC NetWorker and NetBackup. However, I have not used the analytical parts currently but will check it out. Streamlining processes as well as saving money are benefits that Veeam Data Platform provides for the end user, as it allows for application-aware backups and database backups without the need for various kinds of licenses that other backup software requires. Veeam offers socket-based licenses, instance-based licenses, and capacity-based licenses, which is a great feature.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"We have been able to safely and securely save our backups off of AWS."
"We now have the peace of mind knowing that our entire AWS infrastructure is fully backed up into an air-gapped environment."
"Clumio gave us a genuinely isolated vault that sits outside our AWS Organization's blast radius."
"Clumio has a straightforward setup"
"It has improved our disaster recovery footprint; previously, backups were only stored on premises, and having an offsite backup improves our reliability and security."
"Clumio proved to be the most cost-effective option."
"Working with the Clumio/Commvault team has been a very good experience."
"It has helped us to protect our IP address and critical information."
"It is a global major solution for quite a lot of people, which makes it easy to find somebody who knows how to work with Veeam Backup, and the scalability is good."
"The most important part is that you actually know you have a backup of the whole virtual server."
"Storage Snapshot is a good feature and very safe."
"What I find most valuable is probably the virtual machine backup; I can really trust those copies."
"While I do not recall whether the latest version is 10.0 or 11.0 I do know that it allows one to make a back up repository that is very scalable and simple."
"The solution is stable and the performance is good."
"Its performance is fine, it supports us very well, and it is able to support our policy for RTO, RPO, and other things that we need."
 

Cons

"It would be beneficial to show when backups are available and to receive alerts if there are any issues with the backups."
"They need to improve their SQL backup services"
"The account onboarding process deploys around 20 IAM roles per account, which is heavy."
"I have also been struggling with the storage and in some cases I need to move things due to performance."
"I think it would be great to have the ability to use WAN acceleration as an integrated feature for local backup storage to save a lot more space."
"Could offer a better conclusion of the backups."
"If you upgrade too quickly, you may have issues."
"I would like to see the replication and a recovery plan of the servers in the cloud. It's very important."
"Veeam ONE should improve its UI."
"Customer Service: 2/10. Technical Support: 2/10."
"The result was many failed backups due to "no more space" errors!"
