Veeam Data Platform Reviews

I use the backup, replication, and the backup copy features. The most useful one is the backup feature.

I have a backup of my infrastructure every night, and have improved the speed of performing restores.

I think it is a good product but all products could be better.

I've used it for two years.

No issues with deployment, nothing went wrong.

This product has saved a lot of my time, as it’s very stable.

I have only needed to open two tickets in two years.

I have only needed to open two tickets in two years.

Yes, I previously used Microsoft System Center but Veeam is better, faster and easy to use and configure.

It's easy and very straightforward to configure.

It was implemented in-house.

I would recommend you buy this product because it is simple to use and works fine.

Veeam ONE is used to backup environments, virtual environments, monitoring backups, infrastructure, and virtual and physical infrastructure.

I have found the most valuable feature to be the configuration and ease of use.

Veeam ONE could improve by having capacity planning, intelligent automatization, and ransomware.

I have been using Veeam ONE for approximately six years.

We have approximately 20 customers using this solution.

We have three people in my company that uses this solution.

The support of Veeam ONE is good.

The initial installation was simple, and it took us approximately 30 minutes to do.

We had some consultants help us with the implementation.

Instant Recovery is an amazing feature which reduces the recovery time from hours or sometimes from days to minutes. It enhances the business continuity results.

With the Instant Recovery, you can run the virtual machine from the backup repository at any disaster time. The users can access data and applications within a maximum of two minutes.

I have used this solution for three years.

There were no stability issues.

There were no scalability issues.

I would rate the technical support a a seven out of 10.

We still use other solutions to back up the physical environment, since Veeam only supports virtual machines.

The setup was very easy and straightforward, i.e., without any problems.

I always recommend using all the Veeam features, not only to just create backup jobs.

Veeam is not only a backup software, it helps your organization for business continuity and disaster recovery as well.

• Live monitoring and reporting on the health and performance of the virtual environment.

Identifies issues in real time, does capacity planning, and performs environmental monitoring that allows us to justify the need for additional resources in real time.

I would like to see improvements in the GUI and in navigation.

I have used this solution for four years.

I didn’t encounter any issues with stability.

I didn’t encounter any issues with scalability.

Technical support is excellent.

The installation was straightforward.

We bundle it with Veeam Backup & Replication and Veeam Availability Suite under the cloud license model. It is very affordable.

I don’t have any negative feedback. It provides a real-time, holistic view of the performance of our environment. It has allowed us to capture resource utilization issues for virtual machines. It allows us to capture information about snapshots, configuration, and performance issues in real-time. It has excellent reporting for capacity planning and management or reporting for customers.

BitLooker: It is an advanced technology designed to reduce backup size. It makes you exclude deleted file blocks, swap and hibernation files, and user files or folders.

Based on my previous experience with different backup products, Veeam is the best one that understands and integrates easily with virtual infrastructure.

Add new features on application backup and recovery. And expand the range of applications supported.

I have used it for about two years.

There was some incompatibility with Windows drivers, but it was fixed by the support team.

Technical support is excellent. I had three cases and they all were solved perfectly. The support team is highly qualified.

I worked with Symantec NetBackup/Commvault and EMC NetWorker. Veeam is the best for virtualization backup.

Initial setup was straightforward and the steps were so simple.

My ROI is 50%.

Pricing/licensing is fair enough. Licensing for this software is per CPU socket.

Consider it if you are running a totally virtualized infrastructure. And try to focus on Veeam as the single reporting tool. It is just very useful and easy.

Integration with VMware is essential, in addition to the functionality of Instant Recovery, WAN Acceleration, SureBackup, SureReplica and for the most part, it is not necessary to install agents for granular backups and restores. The adoption of compression and deduplication features are extremely important, and of course the cost benefit, because the licensing costs are not calculated according to backup volume.

We reduced licensing costs for our backup, as the trend of the backup is always increasing. The tool also provides significantly simpler management and easier backup and restore operations, among other factors such as the ability to test the backups and replicas of backups in our backup site.

I would like to see agents for backup of physical servers, as only agents for Windows servers have this tool. Storage backup for Linux servers is not yet possible.

I have used this solution for three months.

For our environment in particular, we have not found any difficulty or deployment issue.

Technical support is excellent.

Before Veeam, we used the IBM solution (TSM) and evaluated NetBackup from Symantec/Veritas. We chose Veeam because of its features, lower investment cost and ease of management.

Deployment and configuration of Veeam to our environment was incredibly simple. We did not have great difficulties.

We are a company that provides hosting services and IT services to the government of Amazonas. With the implementation of Veeam, our ROI increased from 30% (TSM) to 70% (Veeam), over the first three years.

Veeam’s licensing provided savings of almost 55% in the first three years. After this period, the savings will be even greater, because the license cost is not calculated by backup volume.

Evaluate the Veeam product before manking any decisions. In my view, Veeam sells itself, and a team of sales and marketing is not necessary. Let your technical team evaluate and issue its opinion.

It's very simple to implement and very fast to learn. One backup can be done and many restorations are possible from that backup. It's mature integrity within a virtualized environment has always been important.

Veeam B&R saved our many files that accidentally had been deleted. By using File Level Recovery, all of them got restored easily and in a time manner.

Not covering the physical environment is both a pro and con of the product. Many organizations still have to consider other enterprise class solutions because of their physical servers. The other thing that they need to consider is the integration between Veeam and other storage vendors to use all the array level features to make backups even faster and more efficient. I guess Veeam needs to have a look at the enterprise market and not get stuck with small or mid-range forever.

I've been using and proposing this product to many customers for more than five years.

Patch release and support are both very efficient and it doesn't take ages for most issues to be resolved.

There have been no performance issues.

It's been able to scale for our needs.

I would rate it very highly.

It's been easy to deploy, and I've never had any complaints from a customer.

I did it myself and used my team in projects. I found the SureBackup implementation quite tricky, especially the health check mechanism which can be a bit confusing.

It's not cheap for sure but in comparison with rivals it's not very pricey as well. Disaster recovery and backup solutions are not cheap and investing in them is worth much as it helps you to protect valuable data.

Veeam clearly stands in the middle, somewhere between simplicity and richness. I have proposed and designed backup solution based on many other products such as EMC Networker or Netbackup, but Veeam suits many customers' needs.

The best approach would be to implement a trial in a test environment to test it and run all the features to help you decide which edition and features you need and understand the architecture needed to run it.
