<p>Infrascale Backup &amp; Disaster Recovery efficiently scales for diverse businesses, aiding growth with strong support despite occasional data capacity challenges.</p>
Sentiment score
7.5
Veeam Data Platform provides scalable, efficient, and adaptable solutions with ease of use and versatile integration, despite license cost concerns.
One person can manage hundreds and hundreds of endpoints without any issues.
Integration with other vendors is also seamless.
In order to scale Veeam Data Platform, we have to pay a lot more money.
 

Stability Issues

Sentiment score
8.4
<p>Infrascale Backup &amp; Disaster Recovery is stable with high uptime, fast support, minimal maintenance, and improved cloud usability.</p>
Sentiment score
7.9
Veeam Data Platform is stable and efficient, with issues mostly due to configuration errors, resolved by updates.
I would rate the stability a ten out of ten.
There was a recent announcement in terms of moving Infrascale to the cloud, which makes it easier for the customer in terms of usability.
There are no issues with stability in Veeam Data Platform.
 

Room For Improvement

Users seek improvements in Infrascale's bandwidth options, Linux support, SSD use, pricing, data diversity, security, and multi-cloud integration.
Veeam Data Platform faces integration and support challenges, high costs, and complex setup, impacting functionality and user satisfaction.
Many customers do not rely on just one cloud provider and want to work with multiple clouds.
When the product works, there is really nothing to fix, but they can allow different types of backups, such as differential or incremental backups.
Reducing it by 20% would make it more accessible to a broader range of customers.
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.
 

Setup Cost

Infrascale Backup offers competitive, flexible pricing ideal for small enterprises, though it requires negotiation and setup costs.
Veeam Data Platform offers competitive pricing with predictable CPU socket-based licensing, though additional features can increase costs.
To someone considering Infrascale but is concerned about the price, I would say that they should get Infrascale's service no matter what it costs because any downtime or any loss of data is substantially worse than any cost for backup.
The per-terabyte pricing is very competitive compared to the others.
A reduction of 20% in the current cost would make the solution more attractive to clients.
From what I know, it is expensive to add modules, with a scale rating of eight out of ten.
 

Valuable Features

Infrascale provides simple, rapid VM boot-up and robust backup, recovery, and protection for servers with a user-friendly interface.
Veeam Data Platform is praised for ease of use, scalability, cloud integration, and effective backup and recovery solutions.
What I like the most about it is that backups and restores are simple, straightforward, and clean.
Performing backup and recovery can be done very intuitively with the solution and the interface that is part of the solution.
The platform is user-friendly, comprehensive, and compatible with numerous market solutions, including virtualization and bare metal servers.
It is also one of the most scalable backup solutions I've worked with.

Harry Vining - PeerSpot reviewer
The overall ease of use and ease of management using the dashboard is excellent
I can't really think of anything that really needs to be improved from my perspective, because I only use the backup. Maybe someone who is using something else might have a different opinion on that. But for the online backup and recovery tool, I'm not going to say there's anything that needs improvement. They can always improve stuff. But from the top of my head, I can't think of anything. It does what it needs to do. That's it. It doesn't need to do anything more than what it does and nothing less than what it's doing. The Infrascale dashboard when it comes to centralized deployment and configuration is excellent. I have no problems with the solution. They could always make it better. They can always make the GUI a little bit nicer, the interface level a bit better. There's always room for improvement, but there's nothing on the top of my head that's saying, "Hey, this is what needs to be fixed." But, the programmers are probably working on their own things. So, there's always room for improvement.
