Veeam Data Platform Reviews

We use Veeam Backup Replication for replication and backups which is better performance.

Veeam Backup Replication has good performance and can do location-to-location backups. Additionally, it is user-friendly and easy to manage.

I have been using Veeam Backup Replication for a few years.

Veeam Backup Replication has good performance.

We have approximately 10 customers using this solution.

We have one person that handles the deployment and maintenance.

The license subscription could be more straightforward.

I rate Veeam Backup Replication an eight out of ten.

We use Veeam to protect and replicate the data. We need another tool for protecting the information.

Veeam's file monitoring capabilities are strong and consistent. 

The Veeam portal should be better integrated with all the parts of the new release. But there's always a workaround to replicate the new solution. I'd like to have better integration with other solutions like SAP.

I've been working with Veeam Backup for three years. 

Veeam is highly scalable.

Veeam support is integrated across phone, chat, and email, and they have excellent discipline.

Veeam is relatively easy to deploy and you have two options. It only takes one engineer to deploy and maintain.

I rate Veeam nine out of 10. Cloud integration is a good option. They have many ways to provide integration. Some on-premise elements are part of the integration with Google. You can add part of the center to the backup to create a hybrid setup. It's not enough to have all the backup with RAMM or ERMA. The portfolio that comes with Veeam is easy, and that's also good to have — to cover all the enterprise and part of the availability suite. 

We are using Veeam Backup Replication for server and virtual backups.

The integration of Veeam Backup Replication is very good.

The parallel backup process from the Veeam server to Veeam has some limitations. The number of parallel backups should be increased and the compressional is very low. Sometimes it is half or one-third, but other backup solutions' compression levels are very high.

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

I have found Veeam Backup Replication to be stable.

The solution is scalable. However, with other systems, such as physical Linux servers, the integration with different applications is not very good and there can be some issues. Sometimes they are not fully integrated with the application.

 In my case, there is no technical support needed.

The Veeam Backup Replication initial setup was very easy.

I did the deployment myself.

We use the community edition of the Veeam Backup Replication and it is a software-based license. It can be a little expensive.

We did not evaluate other options.

I would recommend this solution.

I rate Veeam Backup Replication a seven out of ten.

I am using the solution in a virtual environment for backup and replication.

I have found the most valuable feature to be the new CDP features. It is very popular for my customer's needs. 

Additionally, the solution is user-friendly.

There is some complexity we have experienced when using the solution that should be simplified.

I have been using this solution for approximately three years.

The solution is stable.

We have used the technical support and they are very good. We receive a resolution at a high priority.

The installation was easy.

The price of Veeam Backup and Replication is expensive.

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

I like the Acronis backup solutions on the block-based part of backups. That is a functionality that Veeam does not provide. 

Otherwise, I don't see any additional improvements in Veeam because they are very good. It integrates very well with Microsoft applications. Veeam is very user friendly and you don't need to have certifications to work on it.

I have been working with Veeam Backup and Replication for the past four years.

I think that the scalability is very good. We can't compare it. The only problem that users may face with Veeam, is if people do not size it correctly, which can cause performance issues.

Cloud backup on AWS Azure is also fantastic. It backs up applications, such as Oracle SAP, as well.

The technical support is very good. They provide solutions immediately and they tell the customer exactly what is wrong.

If you tell Veeam that you're competing with, for example, NetBackup or Backup Exec, or Dell or Micro Focus then they may lower the price. They are very competitive.

The price of Micro Focus will beat Veeam, but then you're missing one or two functionalities which is good to have for disaster recovery.

I would rate Veeam Backup a 10 out of 10.

VM backup and ease of use are the most valuable features.

It helps the discovery of the new VM. It allows me to use the same tools when we decided to move from VMware to Hyper-V.

The physical system support needs improvement. I know that the latest version has this feature, but it was too late as I am already using it for three years. For the time being, I have used another backup software (EMC NetWorker) and they seem to catch up a lot during the past few years.

I have used this solution for three years.

Stability is good so far; hopefully, we will not have any problems.

If one day the EMC NetWorker will offer same features, then I will have to switch as they offer more than what I want.

The setup looks simple, you set it up once and forget .

If they can give more add-ons (such as training) for the pricing.

We looked at EMC NetWorker and Veritas NetBackup.

Keep it up.

There are many features that include the SQL table-level restore, Instant VM Recovery, and SureBackup, which are valuable to us.

• SQL table-level restore: It helps the customer to restore a single table instead of the entire database which reduces the backup window dramatically.
• Instant VM Recovery: It helps in case of a VM crash down.
• SureBackup: You are assured that your backup is recoverable.

We are a MSP and we deliver the best solutions to our customers.

Veeam was one of the key products available for the virtualized environment.

They have to expand their operations for the physical environment.

I have used this solution for two years.

There were no stability issues. If VMware works fine, then you wont face any issues with Veeam.

Since they don’t have any technical support center in India, I would like to rate it a 5 out of 10.

As I have mentioned earlier, we are a MSP and we design solutions according to the customer's needs.

Pricing is reasonable and the product is worth investing in.

We were evaluating Arcserve for the virtual environment. However, Veaam has better adaptability towards the virtual environment.

VMware = Veeam is the best backup and replication solution.
Microsoft Hyper-V = Veeam is the best backup and replication solution.

The reverse incremental feature is most valuable to us.

It is intuitive to use. It was easy to train IT guys how to use it.

I would like to see any backup process other than the snapshot backup.

We have used the solution for four years.

Sometimes if a backup failed, it meant the snapshot was not removed. This could cause the VM to crash when it ran out of snapshot space.

I didn't need it for our environment which had three ESX hosts and 50-60 VMs.

I didn't use the technical support directly, but the guys reporting to me did. I believe they were fairly straightforward.

I used a product called vRanger by Quest. They are very similar, but I decided to switch to Veeam after going to a VMware event and seeing that Veeam had become a partner of VMware. This gave me more confidence in their product.

The setup was very simple as it's pretty much a default install.

I see nothing different than what other vendors are doing, which is to price it at "per physical CPU". Just factor that in when looking at cost.

I did not evaluate other options.

This is a good solution for a small to medium size company. The backup speed isn't lightening quick. However, a lot depends on your environment and what you're backing up to i.e., NAS or SAN.
