The sync process has been quick and the software correctly maintains the same file structure as in File Explorer
The pCloud sync server client has worked well in the trial version. As advertised, it has a sync drive integrated into File Explorer. I can easily configure it to selectively sync any local drive in File Explorer and use it normally. The sync process has been quick, and the software correctly maintains the same file structure as in File Explorer.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The sync process has been quick, and the software correctly maintains the same file structure as in File Explorer."
"I can access my files from all kind of devices and operating systems. I do not need any more external flash drives. I can even edit my files directly in the cloud using pCloud Drive."
"The platform has a useful disaster recovery feature."
"The solution is quite stable."
"The product could be improved if they wrote more PowerShell scripts for controlling Veeam."
"The backup and replication features of this solution are most valuable."
"Replication Job base on a source HPE Catalyst store to perform a full reconstruction of our production systems on our third datacenter, which is our DRP Site."
"The most valuable aspect is its reliability in recovering any replaceable data in the event of server issues in a production environment."
"The initial setup was very easy."
"The monthly reports come complete with graphs and summaries, it's really helpful."
 

Cons

"My recommendation is that support could be better, even though sometimes things can be technically complicated."
"Veeam Backup & Replication could improve by making it more user-friendly."
"In the future, Veeam should release a hardware backup appliance that can be integrated with their software."
"We're using both Backup and Replication, Veeam Cloud Connect, and Veeam Office 365. What I am missing is a good graphical user interface between these three products."
"The product is expensive."
"The navigation of menus can be difficult to find what you're looking for sometimes."
"The user experience can be better, as it is one of the areas with shortcomings in the product."
"The initial setup of Veeam Backup Replication is straightforward. The process took approximately two days. The setup could be streamlined to take less time."
"Margins should not be distinct; instead, they should seamlessly integrate with the Veeam Backup and Replication tools, requiring minimal separation."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The price of Veeam Backup & Replication is reasonable compared to IBM."
"The product must improve its pricing."
"Veeam ONE is moderately priced, where it is neither expensive nor cheap."
"We purchase a license annually."
"If you tell Veeam that you're competing with, for example, NetBackup or Backup Exec, or Dell or Micro Focus then they may lower the price. They are very competitive."
"We have increased our scalability while being able to free up senior resources from recovery activities. I estimate our overall savings to about $20,000 per year."
"The tool is reasonably priced for the quality it provides."
"The pricing structure for Veeam ONE has changed to what is now called the "VUL" or "Universal License". Previously, people mainly used socket licenses, but this has now changed. The new pricing structure was introduced last year."
