CONRAD FORREST - PeerSpot reviewer
President at MTS Consulting Group, Inc.
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

"The best feature is that it's very user-friendly to do scheduled backups and version maintenance."
"Technical support is very good."
"I liked the way the product worked, its flexibility on the storage and cost, and the way it was supported."
"Every user of IT infrastructure needs to have a backup, and this is a good solution to implement because it is so easy and straightforward."
"It has allowed me to implement a cost effective, highly configurable solution."
"The solution is simple to use and easy to configure."
"Block level transfers have significantly reduced the amount of time for transfers over some other solutions"
"The feature that I have found most valuable is its online backup capacity because you don't have to do an entire backup again and again, it just does whatever you type in, you type a, it goes a, you type b, it goes b."
"I think that the scalability is very good. We can't compare it."
"We wanted the best software in the market and the best software for what we needed is Veeam Backup Replication."
"It is very easy to restore files and images."
"The backup and restore features are the most valuable."
"The solution has improved our organization because it's very fast in backup recovery."
"It's fairly easy to manage and set up."
"As a manager, I find Veeam One's reporting service to be very helpful."
"The stability is excellent, the solution just runs with no bugs or glitches, it doesn't crash or freeze, and it's extremely reliable."
 

Cons

"Using the solution incurs additional charges for the device storage and backup which are not included in the service."
"The restore time could improve. When we had an issue the restore time was lengthy."
"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."
"Maybe implement an easier interface for basic users. For example, a set-up wizard with all the commonly used features as default."
"The interface could use some updating."
"The main improvement is that it should have GDPR compliance. That's the problematic point."
"Maybe implement an easier interface for basic users. For example, a set-up wizard with all the commonly used features as default."
"The Cloud version is not ready, they need maturity and ease of deployment in terms of management."
"Backup speed should be increased, and there should be more functionality."
"The initial setup of Veeam Backup Replication is straightforward. The process took approximately two days. The setup could be streamlined to take less time."
"Veeam ONE should improve its UI."
"If you do not use the standard software and you go with a third-party solution such as this one, it might not work the same. There is an integration issue I understand between the database standards."
"They need to support more platforms."
"The product is expensive."
"However, this is a very critical environment, and if you do not enable other things, such as instant recovery or something similar, and you don't have the expertise, it can be painful for the customer."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We have a very good return on investment."
"Its pricing needs improvement."
"I rate the price of MSP360 Backup a seven out of ten."
"MSP360 is vastly cheaper than its competitors and has almost all the same features."
"The cost is pretty inexpensive. Around four to five dollars per device, per workstation on each server."
"It provides a good cost savings compared to our previous cloud backup."
"The solution is expensive."
"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."
"The price of Veeam Backup and Replication is expensive."
"The licenses are code-based or server-based for Veeam ONE. The last version is 12, and it is host-based, I don't like to move to a code-based solution."
"Since our Veeam license is perpetual, we only pay for annual maintenance."
"The price of the solution could be lower."
"When I did a tech refresh, we took out a subscription for the coming five years."
"We use the community edition of the Veeam Backup Replication and it is a software-based license. It can be a little expensive."
"Its price is reasonable for a big company or a big client. It is not too much. It is cheaper than VMware."
"I find the pricing to be okay."
