"The support offered by both Veeam and our third party supplier is excellent."
"Backup and replication are the most valuable features."
"It is very easy to integrate. You can do it very fast."
"The most valuable features are the backup and restoration of our VMs. Additionally, they add features regularly."
"The data backup replication has been the most useful feature. Previously, we copied the data hub to an external hard drive but now we are able to store the backup on one of the depository service."
"The solution can work for companies no matter the size or scope."
"Veeam Backup & Replication is definitely very useful and simple to learn, and the restoring processes are very straightforward, making it a very solid product."

"It is a rock-solid backup solution. That's all, and that's what we were asking for."
"The most valuable feature is adaptability, where it automatically adapts to the environment that it's being installed on."
"The backup and replication features of this solution are most valuable."
"We would like to have a single management console for all of our backups."
"When you add a new site for backup, it gives you a notice that there is a new site, but the way you select that and configure that could be slightly better. It works, but it is not always very clear. For example, for the URL, you need to hover over the title or the name of the site. You should see it immediately on the screen. It should have a better user interface for selecting what you want to back up so that you get a more clear overview of the sites that are there and the ones that you want to combine in a backup. Its user interface should be more user-friendly. It has a lot of scrolling and doesn't give you a complete overview when needed. That's the main thing why it is not very user-friendly. It should have a better user interface."
"This solution does provide the option to choose a different target of storage."
"The capacity storage is a challenge everywhere in the backup industry. The general feedback people are coming back to about this is that there is no deduplication based on it."
"The solution is costly."
"Pricing is an area for improvement, and I would rate it at five out of ten."
"The pricing model is unnecessarily confusing and could be simplified."
"The solution could improve scalability, both in terms of more storage and users. These two attributes are quite important when you talk about good scalability."
"We would like to have the ability to perform more things on the web interface. The heavy client is still needed to perform advanced tasks."
"The automation could be better."
"I don't see much room for improvement except that the price could be better."
"I would like to see better features for exporting to cloud-based repositories."
"The tech support could be better."
"It's hard to answer because managing cloud storage in our version could be better, but now that they have improved it in the recent version, I cannot say it's a better point because I know it should be already fixed."
"think backing up from physical servers and ransomware security needs some improvements."
"There's a situation where VMs run on different locks. It's running on the VM while having a relationship with nearby solutions running on the same server and storage. This creates a bottleneck that needs to be eliminated."
