Reliable rollback features for smooth IT operations and an easy setup
We are using Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 to take backups of shop floor PCs. I use it for clients locally, particularly for critical machines. It is also used globally for server-side backups and includes scheduling features like taking ten backups every Sunday when the factory is closed. This…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is easy to use and easy to recover files."
"Veeam is affordable and end-to-end configuration is straightforward, whether you're going from source to destination or vice versa. Retrieval is also easy."
"This is an easy-to-install easy-to-use solution for backing up Office 365 email."
"Veaam technical support, from my perspective, is one of the best technical support I've ever engaged with."
"The solution provides good backup services for Microsoft 365."
"The support offered by both Veeam and our third party supplier is excellent."
"I believe the solution is very scalable. We can continuously add mailboxes and sites."
"It has got all the features. You can restore a mailbox based on an email or a calendar or based on all the emails. A user can also get access to restore the mailbox."
"The most valuable features are the indexing, the file-level restore, and the replications between regions."
"The product is good for volume-level backups."
 

Cons

"One major drawback is that Veeam doesn't support migrating data once it's stored in object storage like S3."
"When you are working in the Cloud security is very important."
"Veeam Backup for Office 365 can improve by reducing the time it takes for backups. I have mentioned this to Veeam and hopefully, in the next version, it will be a faster backup."
"The documentation for the installation is good. However, if you are new to the environment the installation could be difficult. The first time we did it it took approximately four days."
"Some additional training materials would be helpful."
"This solution does provide the option to choose a different target of storage."
"Pricing could be more affordable."
"The solution could improve by having the ability to back up without an agent installed on the system."
"The product needs to improve its file-level or granular-level backups."
"They are niche with the work that they do, but they should have more integration with NetBackup and the reporting is something they should be working towards improving."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Veaam Backup is licensed per mailbox, which customers like because it's per user and so they don't have to pay for shared mailboxes."
"We decided on Altaro because, from the point of view of the total cost, Altaro looks cheaper than Veeam. Veeam has a lot of costs that are not clear when you start it, which makes it less flexible than Altaro, but only after half a year, you can be really sure that you made a good decision."
"From our perspective in South Africa, our biggest challenge is the exchange rate from the South African currency to the US dollar. This makes it a bit pricey for us. However, compared to other backup solutions available, I would rate the pricing at a nine out of ten. For the servers, features, and functionality you get, it's worth the money. Of course, we'd always prefer things to be cheaper, but we also understand that you have to pay for proper functionality. So overall, it's not badly priced at all."
"Its cost is pretty high. I would rate it a three out of five in terms of pricing."
"It is strictly subscribed on a per-user basis."
"The pricing model makes this solution more expensive than it needs to be."
"Its price is a little bit high, but it is a fantastic solution. It is more expensive than NetApp."
"The pricing is expensive."
"When comparing to other solutions, the price is at par."
