Veeam Data Platform Reviews

The usability in general, support and knowledge documentation. I also find the training, and webinars useful. Apart from this, it also has specific features that are useful such as easy restore functionalities, instant file-level recovery, integration with multiple storage vendors, and explorer for Exchange amongst others. Also, its replication is very simple and reliable, as well as the synthetic full backup.

Lastly, Veeam Cloud Connect is another valuable feature. This allows you to backup and restore securely to and from the cloud. All you need to do is choose your cloud provider and it integrates into your systems.

It's affordability, ease of use, and reliability has allowed us to save both man-hours and money.

It needs to be able to integrate with more storage vendors, especially IBM and Dell.

I've been using it for almost four years.

We have had no issues with the deployment.

There have been no performance issues.

It's been able to scale for our needs.

7 to 8/10

Very straightforward but knowledge is a must, especially if you have complex scenarios and if you want correct responses and performance.

In-house implementation, we have a lot of skilled personel. Knowledge about the product and about backup theory in general is a must.

Try it! You can test it before buy it, almost without effort and you probably will forget a lot of other vendor solutions.

Surebackup, reverse incremental, parallel processing for VM and the hdd and many more.

Very smooth backup and restore when required.

As every application has a scope of improvement so the Veeam, there are many areas they can improve on: the CBT errors, in hot add many times it is found that the Veeam proxy do not release the HDD even after the backup, offsite repository is not very stable.

3 years.

Not Much, environment specific.

Not much, it is quite stable.

No.

Good.

Good.

No.

Straightforward but have some complicity in configuring offsite backup.

Vendor Team, team was domain expert.

ROI for backup point of view comes only when you are in a condition that only backup can help, I have been in such conditions many times in which Veeam has proved to be a EXCELLENT ROI for my company.

Yes, Avamar.

Excellent product for medium size datacenter, not sure about the large datacenters.

The primary use case of this product is for disaster recovery and ransomware protection. It's also used for testing development. 

I like this solution for its simplicity and stability. 

The solution could be improved with easier immutability.

I've been consulting on this solution for eight months. 

The initial setup is fairly straightforward. Depending on how the system is deployed, the implementation can take anywhere from one to six hours. We currently have five customers who have deployed Veeam Backup & Replication. We have two engineers who deploy this product. 

I recommend this solution and rate it eight out of 10. 

We also provide services to our customers.

We use this solution to backup virtual machines.

The most valuable feature of this solution is the recuperation of the weaker machines.

Pricing can be improved.

I have been using Veeam Backup & Replication for between six and seven years.

We are using version 11.

It is very stable.

We can deploy as many virtual machines as we have in our environment.

We have approximately 25 users in our company.

Technical support is good.

Once you know the concept, it is very easy to install and setup.

The deployment time varies on how many machines you have.

In one week, you can have a very good installation.

They could work at providing a better price.

It is a very good product. It does what it takes to backup virtual machines. It is easy to set up and it is very quick.

So far, there isn't anything that I don't like and we are very happy with it.

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

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.

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.

• CBT technology
• Instant VM Recovery
• Recovery Explorer for Exchange, AD, Oracle
• SureBackup
• Integrated WAN Acceleration

Veeam improved our backup infrastructure to help save backup space. With the integrated WAN acceleration, the data transfer of our backup files to cloud storage sped up.

Instant VM Recovery provides very fast recovery of our critical VMs.

I think it would be great to have the ability to use WAN acceleration as an integrated feature for local backup storage to save a lot more space.

I have used this solution for about five years.

I have not yet encountered any deployment or stability or scalability issues. If the backup doesn’t work, the issue is not with Veeam but rather with the VM.

Customer service works very well.

Technical support also works very well.

I implemented it by myself. My advice for implementation is to install Veeam on a dedicated backup server. It is important to plan a backup strategy like 3-2-1: 3 copies on 2 different medias and 1 offsite.

It is important to count all the sockets of vm-hosts to get the right license.

We also use Altaro Backup for some small customers. Altaro also works great for its price.

Try it and love it.

The ease of use of the product and overall confidence in the product and Veeam support are valuable.

We can now perform restores as file level instead of the whole VM.

A better reporting function where we can see all the job statistics as standard rather than buying this feature with Veeam One.

I've been using it for six to eight months.

We have had no issues with the deployment.

Using Synthetic Full Backup caused issues with storage, but since switching to True Full Backup everything seams to be fine.

It's been able to scale for our needs.

It's 10/10.

We used an in house script, which did not address a file level restore.

It was fine, but the current setup process could do with some tweaking. It would be nice to have more advice on domain controller restores.

We performed it in-house.

Try it first and see if it does what you want.
