Veeam Data Platform Reviews

I primarily use the solution for monitoring. 

I think Veeam ONE is great as it is, it does everything I need. 

Perhaps the interface could be improved, though it has always been fine for me.

I have been using the solution for about eight years. 

Veeam's technical support is great, I've been using it for the past ten years.

I've worked with Tivoli Storage Manager, Commvault, Spectrum, and Symantec NetBackup, which is Veritas NetBackup now. 

The initial setup is easy.

I don't pay for the solution, so I can't comment on the cost.

I rate this solution a ten out of ten.

It's used for all of our virtual environment backups. We use it in all kinds of IT, with over 3000 employees.

I like that it's easy to operate and restore.

For additional features, I'd say having integration backup through hybrid cloud.

We have been using the solution for more than five years.

It's a stable solution.

The solution is scalable.

If we need support, we call the Veeam branch office in our country.

Initial setup is straightforward. 

It was deployed by the reseller.

We have a yearly license.

We were approached by Commvault and Veritas solution vendors, but for now, Veeam is good enough.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.  

Maintenance is done with the SI (System Integrator). 

The solution provides backup for my virtual infrastructure. We are customers of Veeam and I'm an IT manager. 

The interface is user-friendly and the solution works quickly. It's also quite helpful for restoring. If there's an instance where I don't need to restore, I can easily copy-paste and that is a useful feature. It's simple to schedule jobs on Veeam and get whatever details you need, it really fulfills all our requirements. 

It's sometimes difficult identifying the resources for backup and I think that could be improved. I'd also like to see more detailed reporting. 

I've been using this solution for almost four years. 

The solution is stable. 

The solution is scalable. 

We haven't really needed to contact customer service. 

We previously used a different solution and switched to Veeam because it works faster, the recovery process is very quick, and it's easily scalable. 

The initial setup wasn't too easy or too difficult. We had an integrator who helped us and it was a seamless process. Deployment took less than a day but integrating and customizing took some time, not only because of Veeam but as a result of the process involved in migrating from the previous solution. We have one person dealing with maintenance. We're using Veeam on 10 servers. 

We have been using this product for the past three to four years now, and we have well and truly recovered the cost of implementing it.

Licensing costs are reasonable.  

I rate this solution eight out of 10. 

We primarily use the product for backup and replication purposes. 

The manageability is very easy. It's one console and you can see all of the backups and the replication. The restore processes, the RTO and RPOs, are very low.

The best feature is the CDP - the snapshot integration into sand storage. 

The new feature for ransomware protection has been great.

We have found the solution to be stable.

The scalability is good.

Pricing is fairly reasonable and not overly expensive.

The deployment process can be quite complex. 

I can't speak to any features that are missing. It has everything we need.

If you upgrade too quickly, you may have issues. 

Technical support could be better.

I've been using the solution since 2013.

The solution is very stable. That said, upgrades can give you problems if you upgrade too fast. 

It's very scalable, however, it can be complex to execute.

We have ten people who use it on a daily basis. It's pretty much used 24/7. It's a mission-critical product in our organization.

We do have plans to increase usage in the future.

Sometimes it can be a bit slow to get assistance as we don't have production support. We just have the normal standard support, which makes sense. They can sometimes point fingers. For example, they might try to say "It's EMC or it's NetApp. It's not our product." That can be a bit of a problem.

We used to use Symantec prior to 2013.

The initial setup and deployment were a while back. However, from my experience, I've deployed it three or four times. It's about a day to deploy and it can be complicated. It's not that easy if you don't know what's going on.

We just need one person to maintain the solution. 

We did not use a consultant from the vendor side. Everything was handled by our team. We did it in-house.

We pay a yearly licensing fee.

We've found the pricing to be very reasonable. It's not overly expensive. 

There are different tiers available, including Standard, Enterprise, and Enterprise Plus. We have the standard license. 

We are customers and end-users.

I'd rate the solution at an eight out of ten. We've been pretty happy with its capabilities. 

Veeam Backup Replication is used by my clients as a backup and recovery solution.

My customers find the backup and recovery ease of use is the most beneficial feature.

The recovery and integration features of Veeam Backup Replication could improve. For example, all VM integration could improve, such as with Hyper-V and VMware.

There is not any kind of archiving feature that is provided and in a future release, there should be an archiving feature in this platform. They would be better able to compete with the other archiving solution. In the current scenario, if the customer wants to have an archiving feature, they will have to purchase another solution because we cannot have this archiving feature with Veeam Backup Replication.

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

Veeam Backup Replication has been stable.

The scalability of Veeam Backup Replication is good.

The technical support is good and responsive.

I have used Commvault.

The initial installation is quite easy and not very cumbersome. It's easy if you have a basic understanding of the architecture of the Veeam.

The subscription-based pricing of Veeam Backup Replication is competitive.

The solution that we recommend more often depends on the use case. If there are other use cases that include bare metal recovery and archiving features then I would recommend another product, such as Commvault.

I would advise before implementing a solution such as Veeam Backup Replication that you have the training and skillset before implementation. This allows for proper implementation, best practices, and stability. It is helpful to have someone that is certified.

I rate Veeam Backup Replication an eight out of ten.

We use Veeam Backup Replication for data backup and replication.

We will upgrade to version 11 soon.

The most valuable features of Veeam Backup Replication are efficient backup and replication. Additionally, Veeam Backup Replication supports all products and vendors.

The solution could improve by having more user-friendly dashboards.

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

Veeam Backup Replication is highly stable.

I had a customer that has been in operation for two years without any critical issues.

We do not have plans to increase usage at this time. We use the basic version at this time. 

The scalability of the solution is good.

We have five people in my organization that use this solution and support 10 customers.

I am in Turkey and the support is very important for the customer but it should be improved.

We have used Commvault previously but the customers cannot use Commvault for backups and replication, it is not included on the Commvault backup software. 

Veeam Backup Replication allows both features.

The initial setup of Veeam Backup Replication was straightforward. Step by step, we did not have any problems.

We have five people for maintenance of Veeam Backup Replication.

The price of Veeam Backup Replication has been increasing their price and my customers are asking why. They have CPU-based licenses and a Universal License, the prices should be reduced.

I would advise others that want to implement this solution to check the Veeam website for documentation and follow the information all step by step on how to install it. Everything is available in the documentation about implementation. If someone follows the documentation they will not have a problem with the implementation.
 
I rate Veeam Backup & Replication a nine out of ten.

We are integrators and resellers so we install this product in our clients' environment. I'm a data center architect. 

A valuable feature is the compression when storing data. The product has a lot of functionalities even though they're not always used in my customers' environments. 

I think that the web interface could be more visual. Also, when I was initially evaluating the solution, I had trouble finding detailed information about it and I think that could be improved too. 

I've been using this solution for two years. 

The solution is stable. 

As integrators, we use our own support. The documentation is user friendly and that's enough for us.  

The initial setup is straightforward. 

The licensing is on an annual basis and I think it's a good price. 

We use Veeam Backup Replication for general backup and restore functions.

I like all the backup features in Veeam.

The price can be better.

I have been using Veeam Backup Replication for five years.

Veeam Backup Replication is stable.

Veeam Backup Replication is scalable.

Technical support was good. The few times that you used them, they were pretty decent.

The initial setup is easy.

It's expensive and costs about 1000 a year.

On a scale from one to ten, I would give Veeam Backup Replication a nine.
