Fast data recovery for large scale datasets
The Infiniguard (dedicated disc storage), offers a petabyte of storage space for on-site disc storage for backups. Because of this, we were able to get rid of our tapes. Essentially, it replaced our tape backups. We're definitely going to be buying another INFINIDAT array. We do have another location that is going to be needing a new array sometime soon, so we'll be buying another one. The beautiful thing about them is that you can set them up to replicate for disaster recovery between the two of them and set up some nice replication jobs, site to site, for automatic database replication.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Essentially, it replaced our tape backups."
"It is a global major solution for quite a lot of people."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the recuperation of the weaker machines."
"The initial setup was very easy."
"It's relatively easy to use and the ability to recover in a short period of time has been great."
"The good thing about Veeam is that its initial setup and usage are straightforward."
"The solution's interface, GUI (graphical user interface), and backup are good."
"Get only one interface to manage all backup sites, secure them with replication, and manage outside LTO media."
"The solution's instant recovery feature is good and allows you to capture and copy individual files."
 

Cons

"I would like to see more improvement in the GUI."
"Scalability, as well as licensing costs, need to be improved."
"It would be beneficial if it could expand its coverage to support Frostbox and provide greater flexibility for service providers to recommend backup solutions based on customer preferences in prospective environments."
"They need to focus more on cloud backup."
"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."
"My biggest issue with Veeam at the moment is how the backup reports are displayed. We use the SolarWinds integration to generate consolidated reports for monitoring purposes, but we aren't getting all the available data shown to us in the way that we want."
"The price could be lower."
"In Linux, I suggest you backup for a PostgreSQL database."
"Sometimes Veeam is not that effective when it comes to legacy environments."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The licensing fee depends on the licensing model we choose."

"The product is inexpensive."
"The cost should be adressed."
"The price of Veeam Backup & Replication is reasonable compared to IBM."
"This is not an expensive solution. It's on the cheaper side."
"We have a yearly perpetual license."
"The price is reasonable."
