The solution is quite easy to configure. The interface is quite simple and easy to manage. The restoration is easy to manage.

SureBackup is sometimes a bit difficult to use.

I have been using the solution for a few years.

The solution is quite stable. I rate the stability an eight out of ten.

I rate the product’s scalability an eight out of ten. Three people from the MIS team in our organization use the solution.

Often, when we deal with support teams, they just send us the link to the KB for troubleshooting.

Previously, we used NetBackup. It was really confusing. Veeam’s interface is quite easy to use and configure.

The initial setup is quite easy. The time taken for deployment depends on how many servers will be backed up. Generally, the deployment might take one day. We need one person to deploy the tool.

The product must improve its pricing. Socket license for new users is also challenging. I rate the pricing a seven out of ten.

Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

We use Veeam ONE for monitoring. 

I like the tool's backup. 

Veeam ONE should improve its UI. 

I have been working with the product for one year. 

I would rate the tool's stability a nine out of ten. 

Veeam ONE is scalable and I would rate it a nine out of ten. My company has 100 users for the solution. 

I switched to Veeam ONE due to its simplicity of use. 

Veeam ONE's setup is easy and takes only 30 minutes to complete. It doesn't require any maintenance and needs only one engineer to do the setup. 

We have seen ROI with the solution's use. 

I would rate the product's pricing an eight out of ten. The licensing costs are yearly. 

I would rate Veeam ONE a nine out of ten. 

The solution helps us understand the infrastructure more and gives insights to develop further business plans.

The solution's reporting feature could be better. They should provide more insightful reports.

The solution's customer service is good.

Positive

I rate the solution as an eight. It is good but not an essential product.

Our primary use case of Veeam Backup & Replication is for backing up the VMware environment and restoring files. We also use it for replicating virtual machines from one site to another. I'm an information technology consultant and we are customers of Veeam. 

The solution has a good user interface, is easy to use, and is very reliable.

I'd like to see better compression of the backups.

I've been using this solution for five years. 

The solution is stable and reliable. 

The solution is very scalable. 

I think they provide good support. 

Positive

We previously used HP Data Protector before that and switched to Veeam because it was less expensive and more user-friendly. 

The initial setup is simple. We had help from a contractor for the implementation. The solution requires some monitoring and maintenance and we have two system administrators for that. There are 500 users in the company. 

Licensing costs are competitive even with the additional features that need to be licensed.

I recommend this solution because it's intuitive and rate it 10 out of 10. 

We are using Veeam Backup Replication only to replicate things from one server to another. We are in the testing phase, not in production. We are only using a small part of the solution.

The replication is the most valuable feature for us.

I have been using Veeam Backup Replication for approximately three years.

The stability of the solution is perfect.

The technical support is very good. The one or two times that we needed something from technical support, they answered quickly and right to the point.

The initial setup of Veeam Backup Replication is straightforward. The process took approximately two days. The setup could be streamlined to take less time.

We did the implementation ourselves.

The license cost is per socket, per processor. We can have one license with two processors and we can cover everything inside of the test environment that we have.

We wanted the best software in the market and the best software for what we needed is Veeam Backup Replication. We did not compare other solutions, we only selected the best-reviewed solution.

This solution is perfect for replication.

I rate Veeam Backup Replication a nine out of ten.

It is for backup and disaster recovery as a service. It is deployed in our data center, and then we sell the service to our customers.

The granular restoration that it provides for a business application is most valuable. For example, for Exchange, we can restore a single mailbox or email. We can also do SQL Server restoration and bare-metal recovery for operating systems. 

Replication features are very useful for customers. They can recover the services and move from one data center to another.

Veeam currently lacks features for backing up to network-attached storage. Veeam Backup & Replication agents do not support S3 storage. Only Veeam Backup & Replication server supports S3 storage. 

We have been using this solution for about five years.

Its stability is good. I would rate it an eight out of 10 in terms of stability.

It scales well. I would rate it an eight out of 10 in terms of scalability.

In our infrastructure, we have hundreds of users. Our customers are from many markets, but its users are from their IT department.

I would rate them an eight out of 10.

It is not complex. It is straightforward. We can deploy it to our customers in about 1 to 2 hours or 1 to 2 days. It depends on a customer's infrastructure.

We deploy it ourselves, and we only use support when we have technical issues with the product. We have three engineers for deployment.

It is very difficult to calculate because it is a backup solution. It is not a business service, which makes it very difficult to calculate the ROI.

We are fine with its pricing policy. 

We provide service for our customers, and the licensing is on a monthly basis. They get licenses, computer resources, and our support. Everything is included in a single price.

I would advise others to test this product before buying it. There are many backup products and services, and they have different features and functionalities. We provide our customers a 30-days trial period to test the product for free, and then they can agree or not agree to use this product.

I would rate it an eight out of 10.

We are a system integrator and we implement backup software solutions for our customers. Veeam is one of the products that we provide.

The main feature for Veeam is that it's built primarily for virtualization, such as VMware or Hyper-V.

The interface is user-friendly. It's easy to deploy and easy to manage.

I would like to see more broad support for other applications such as databases, or other operating systems. Veeam is currently developing some of these features but they are not as mature as those found on backup products for physical servers. Essentially, integration with products from other vendors should be improved.

This product should be integrated with Kasten for Kubernetes backup. It would be helpful for backing up a container environment.

We have been working with Veeam Backup & Replication for between five and six years.

Stability has always been good with this solution.

Most of our customers do not have a large virtual environment. Veeam is capable of quickly scaling up or scaling out to meet the requirements of our customers. 

The technical support from Veeam is quite helpful. They have a capable team.

We also use Commvault, Veritas, and IBM Spectrum Protect.

The IBM console is definitely more complex in terms of implementation and monitoring. The user interface for Veeam is better.

The support available is similar from all of the vendors. Most of the backup software and principles are quite similar and we can handle problems with the help of support.

There were no complications with the initial setup.

Several licensing schemes are available.

My advice for anybody who is implementing Veeam is to learn about the various licensing schemes. There are several available to choose from.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.

We are using Veeam Backup Replication for our virtual environments.

The solution protects our system environment which has helped the company.

The most valuable feature is the ease of use.

Veeam Backup Replication could improve by having better integration with the cloud. Additionally, they do not have direct integration to S3 or Azure storage for the backups of the VMs. This feature would be beneficial because we have to go through the scalable repository which I do not like. 

I have been using Veeam Backup Replication for approximately seven years.

Veeam Backup & Replication is stable.

I have found Veeam Backup & Replication scalable. However, you might need to expand your infrastructure. 

The technical support is good.

The installation is straightforward.

The price of Veeam Backup & Replication is reasonable compared to IBM.

If you have virtual environments or databases, Veeam Backup Replication is a good solution. I would recommend it to others.

I rate Veeam Backup & Replication a nine out of ten.
