The solution provides the ability to backup all types of cloud drives, is inexpensive, and has decent support

MSP360 Backup provides the backup functionality, but we need to provide the storage component. We can use Azure, AWS, or another provider, but we need to choose the storage provider and create a bucket to store our data. The vendor is making changes to improve the functionality of the service and the separation of storage, but I would like to see more integration and a knowledge base of the tool. Currently trying to understand why the storage is separated and how to implement the storage properly is a challenge. Using the solution incurs additional charges for the device storage and backup which are not included in the service. Unlike other solutions such as Kohl which includes everything at one price. MSP360 Backup can be improved by adding inclusive pricing.

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

"It has allowed me to implement a cost effective, highly configurable solution."

"Client-side encryption minimizes worries about data being captured on the back-end."

"The most valuable feature of MSP360 Backup is its reliability."

"General ease of use and performance of the Windows version is the most valuable feature."

"MSP360 Backup's most valuable feature is its backup interface."

"One massive advantage of this solution, as compared to more enterprise products, is that no firewall changes are needed on the client's premises. For the product to back up from the client's premise to the cloud, it just needs port 8 and port 443, which are anyway always open. This was one of the things that made us decide to go with the product. It is very difficult to justify a firewall change for a small client who doesn't even know what a firewall is and how to maintain a firewall, or doesn't have anybody maintaining their firewall. You then have to maintain the firewall. MSP360 Backup takes away firewall change requirements, VPNs, or channels that are needed for the backup."

"The solution is easy to access and handles things efficiently."

"The most valuable feature for me is that I can see what has has been successfully backed up and what not. I do not mean the file or folder view, because that's problematic with GDPR, but I mean which machines have successfully backed up. It's very valuable because you don't have to check the machines. The second feature is that you can change backup settings in the portal."

More MSP360 Backup pros

"I enjoy the ability to quickly search for VMs through the Veeam console."

"It's very easy to work with and it's very reliable."

"The most important part is that you actually know you have a backup of the whole virtual server."

"Vendor integration for many of the enterprise features have allowed for us to have greater performance from our storage vendors further improving on our commitments to protect our clients' data."

"The initial setup is very easy."

"I'm pleased with the ability to search for documents; it's very useful."

"I have found the most valuable feature to be the configuration and ease of use."

"The most valuable aspect is its reliability in recovering any replaceable data in the event of server issues in a production environment."

More Veeam Data Platform pros

Cons

"Maybe implement an easier interface for basic users. For example, a set-up wizard with all the commonly used features as default."

"We could basically use just a more concise visual dashboard reporting on the status of the various machines."

"The initial setup is a little complex as it has to be done in the office and requires someone to come in and install the solution on your server, then configure the scheduling, backup pushing, and so on."

"The main improvement is that it should have GDPR compliance. That's the problematic point. They say they are GDPR compliant, but they are not."

"The solution needs a better graphical user interface. It's a graphical user interface that is very old-school right now. They could give it a little more modern feel."

"The Linux GUI leaves a lot to be desired. It lacks many of the features of the Windows version and is buggy, but it is still usable."

"The solution's pricing is very high."

"There are some things that we don't like about it. That is why I was exploring alternatives in a hyper-scale environment. That is why I was checking IT Central Station."

More MSP360 Backup cons

"In the future, Veeam should release a hardware backup appliance that can be integrated with their software."

"Its licensing needs to be improved. Its licensing has become complex since last December. They have changed the way the product is licensed, and there is a lot of confusion. Sometimes, when a new version comes, it seems that it has not been tested enough because I usually find some bugs in it. It could also have more integration with other virtualization products, such as desktop virtualization products and open-source virtualization products."

"Creating reports is a bit difficult, and you have to spend some time on it."

"They fixed everything that I was hoping for. It is pretty good. There were a few things in 9.x that I was wishing for, and they came true in version 10. We were looking for retention without having to make a copy job. We're getting ready to migrate m365 to the cloud. I haven't dived into it to make sure, but I wish the m365 backup would integrate into the current console so that we don't have to use two different consoles."

"Perhaps the interface could be improved, though it has always been fine for me."

"Veeam Backup Replication has agents for Linux, but they are not supporting Cluster Shared Volumes. It would be great to have agents for Linux be cluster-aware, just like the Windows agents. That's the main pain point. In addition, we should be able to handle the automation of Oracle backups from the backup server. We should be able to schedule, control, and deploy them from the backup server rather than relying on scripts and/or the system you are backing up to perform the backup. Currently, we install the plug-in inside Oracle VMs and then use crontabs to handle the task schedule on each machine for scheduling the backups. Veeam Backup Replication should also support the automation of Nutanix backups from the backup server, not from the proxy. The other not so major thing is that they don't support legacy systems because Veeam is a new company. It is not as old as other companies. They don't support physical workloads that are really old, which a major challenge, but they do have a point. Legacy systems should be virtualized, and if they're virtualized, then the backup is not an issue with Veeam, but some customers like the physical setup, and they don't want to have it virtual."

"Backup management features are crucial for ensuring the reliability and automation of backup processes."

"The database backup process could be improved. It would be beneficial to enhance this feature and also consider the addition of a web interface to increase accessibility."

More Veeam Data Platform cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing is reasonable although can be quite a large upfront cost."

"The cost is pretty inexpensive. Around four to five dollars per device, per workstation on each server."

"It includes a standard licensing fee. Once a year, there is a rebranding fee. The licensing costs are available on the internet for MSP360 Backup. There is a discount structure where if you have over 50 devices, you get a 50% discount. So, my cost is $2 a license per month."

"MSP360 is vastly cheaper than its competitors and has almost all the same features."

"The solution is expensive."

"It provides a good cost savings compared to our previous cloud backup."

"Its pricing needs improvement."

"I rate the price of MSP360 Backup a seven out of ten."

More MSP360 Backup pricing and cost advice

"Several licensing schemes are available."

"The pricing is reasonable."

"The tool’s licensing is yearly and flexible. I would rate the solution’s pricing a seven out of ten."

"The license cost is per socket, per processor. We can have one license with two processors and we can cover everything inside of the test environment that we have."

"We are fine with its pricing policy."

"Veeam's pricing is good. But compared to the past five years, it's constantly increasing."

"It's an extremely cost-effective solution."

"Veeam has been raising its prices in the last two years, so it's now lacking some competitiveness in pricing."
