The primary use case of this solution is for backing up EC2 instances and RDS instances The most valuable features are the indexing, the file-level restore, and the replications between regions. Also, the ability to integrate it with the information management studio, and the backups for RDS…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Veeam One is easy to use. You don't need to get very technical or specific class training. Anyone can start using it."
"First, I like that this solution is fast. Second, I like the stability and flexibility."
"The most valuable feature is the continuous backup."
"Sandbox feature is like a power tool for troubleshooting."
"I enjoy the ability to quickly search for VMs through the Veeam console."
"The main feature for Veeam is that it's built primarily for virtualization, such as VMware or Hyper-V."
"Veeam ONE is a straightforward solution and compatible with almost all hardware."
"The tool is fast and trustworthy."
"The product is good for volume-level backups."
"The most valuable features are the indexing, the file-level restore, and the replications between regions."
 

Cons

"It's a great product, but only if you have everything virtualized."
"While the Veeam Backup Replication tool can mostly back up all the data in the environment, the AIX from IBM backup capabilities nowadays could stand improvement as they are not featured on a single pane of glass."
"My main concern about Veeam is that I hope our backups will still be secure in the event of a security incident such as a ransomware attack. In Veeam version 11 they do state that there is ransomware protection, but until it has been proven to be effective, I don't have any assurance that it will prevent data loss."
"I like the Acronis backup solutions on the block-based part of backups. That is a functionality that Veeam does not provide."
"The price is an issue. If one has a large number of servers, say... 100-plus, and wishes to add more, an exhausted budget may hinder this ability."
"Cross-hypervisor replication can be improved."
"The pricing could be better."
"The product is expensive."
"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

"Its software solution has a fee."
"I would rate the pricing six out of ten when compared to other competitors."
"On a one to ten scale, where one is very cheap and ten is very expensive, I rate the price as a five out of ten."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is expensive and ten is cheap, I rate the solution's pricing a nine out of ten."
"The pricing is reasonable and falls within the average range."
"Pricing is not the cheapest, but you get a lot of value for your money."
"It's expensive and costs about 4000 a year."
"It is not expensive and I would rate it five out of ten."
"When comparing to other solutions, the price is at par."

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…
