Good security with useful backup and recovery capablities
The security is very effective. It provides us with a single cloud-based console to manage all our backup and recovery operations. It's easy to use for me. I've used some other clouds and found them hard to understand or to manage things. This platform makes it easy to do so many things all from one place. I like the built-in security features, encryption, and data backup capabilities. The product never gives me an error. It runs smoothly, and I've never had a delay in the backup recovery. It has affected the time we spend managing our backup infrastructure. We've saved a little time. We use the deduplication capabilities. It's helped us reduce the cost of long-term data retention. It's good compared to other solutions we've used. The security and speed of the system are quite helpful to us. The solution does provide automatic updates.

Cons

"The dashboard should be updated."
"If you need to recover an environment and you have suffered from ransomware, it's difficult to start again with the backup and recovery service."
"All our customers would like a cheaper license and more flexible deployment."
"It would be ideal if they could capture everything and then timestamp and back up everything up to that timestamp."
"The implementation was straightforward. However, we used an integrator, the process could be easier for us to do it ourselves."
"The solution could improve by allowing the ability to do monitoring and traffic aggregation in the whole virtual network environment."
"The improvement we would like to see is the option to scale Veeam Data up in smaller sections rather than large sections, which requires paying much more."
"Veeam's support services need improvement."
"If you don't have technical knowledge about these services, monitoring the virtual machines is hard."

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Veeam is more reasonably priced than some competing products."
"The software subscription model can be once a year, or every three years, or every five years."
"The price is a bit high."
"The cost is expensive. It will depend on how you are managing your environment, your requirements, and if you can easily manage a license. It's not that difficult, so you can manage it, but the cost is high, so you need to check directly with Veeam as well as the local partner so you can get the discount prices."
"The price of the solution could improve when comparing it to competitors. The market is very competitive and they should have some discounts or special offers."
"We spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on Veeam each year, although it is not expensive for what we get."
"The license subscription could be more straightforward."
"Our licensing fees are paid yearly and the cost is about $12,000 Swiss Francs ($17,400 USD)."
