Provides alerts regarding pending jobs, but the storage capacity is very low
I use the solution for backup and recovery. I map the data paths to the network. There is a client agent and a server agent. The client agent is added to the client PC, and the server agent is added to the server PC. We work for the pharma industry. We save the files that need to be converted to…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Having the web-based interface is important to us because we can access it from any computer in the network, rather than having it installed and available for use only on a specific one."
"The solution allows us to block off our network and only give access to whatever we want."
"It has File and SQL backup, which is the main benefit for us."
"The user interface is good."
"The interface is very user-friendly."
"The initial setup is straightforward. It's not that complicated. Deployment took maybe about 15 minutes."
"If a job is pending, the solution communicates it to us through emails."
"Its dashboard is quite well done. When you log into the GUI, you can basically see everything you need to know. There is also the possibility to edit the view as you like, which is great."
"First, I like that this solution is fast. Second, I like the stability and flexibility."
"Before Veeam, we had backup infrastructure sprawl. Veeam was able to reduce our overall backup windows while reducing our dedicated backup infrastructure."
"It serves its intended purpose and it works well."
"The most critical features of Veeam Data Platform for ensuring availability and integrity are its fast virtual machine restoration using duplication for quick backups and the COBRA point functionality that allows us to run regu"
"The most valuable feature of Veeam Backup Replication is application awareness. Additionally, the solution is user-friendly and it has been working very well."
"The most valuable feature is how reliable Veeam Backup is. It has the normal expected features that allow you to ensure that everything is backed up completely."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of use."
"It is a good solution for backups and reporting."
 

Cons

"The product’s SQL backup plugin needs improvement."
"I would like to see the option of cloud-based management."
"There are command-line limitations. There is not a very strong possibility to work with the command line. The commands that are there are not that powerful, and you need to be very good at scripting, for example, in PowerShell or in Bash in case it is running on Linux systems. You need to combine a lot of commands together, and still, you will not get a great output that is presentable to others. You cannot work with it as easily."
"There are certain issues with the product that we report to Quest, and we get offered a workaround instead of a fix. There could be better interaction with the development teams, perhaps in terms of transparency."
"The interface can be improved. It should be more clear what features are available and make them easy to find."
"In the next version, I would like to see support for the MongoDB database. As it is now, there is no component that works with it and we cannot back the data up using NetVault."
"The stability of the solution is poor."
"The storage capacity is very low."
"The cloud part of it can be improved. There should be an option for Veeam in your own cloud, as compared to the Veeam cloud offering that's currently there. The rest of it is easy."
"The cost of the product is an area that would prevent me from using it in the future."
"They need to improve their technical side."
"Veeam Data Platform lacks cyber security tools."
"Veeam Data Platform needs to improve data backup for Oracle admin. It needs to improve its stability."
"They could offer a hardware appliance as a comprehensive, full-stack solution."
"The solution needs more detailed reporting."
"We had one problem once with the network."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of our 12-month contract is approximately $1,500 AUD ($1,100 USD)."
"The tool is expensive."
"When we purchased four licenses, we were given a very good price. However, it is still on the high side when compared to some other vendors."
"The price of the solution could be lower."
"There is a license required for this solution and the price is a bit expensive but it depends on the environment that you have on how much it will cost."
"Its price is reasonable for a big company or a big client. It is not too much. It is cheaper than VMware."
"Our licensing fees are paid yearly and the cost is about $12,000 Swiss Francs ($17,400 USD)."
"It is always nice to get products cheaper. Technically, it saves you a lot of money. If you wanted to buy the same functionality out of vSphere, you would spend thousands to essentially get the same functionality."
"The cost is based on the number of core servers."
"The pricing is good and affordable."
"It is relatively cheap."

VMware SRM vs. Veeam vs. Zerto
Disaster recovery planning is something that seems challenging for all businesses. Virtualization in addition to its operational flexibility, and cost reduction benefits, has helped companies improve their DR posture. Virtualization has made it easier to move machines from production to…
