Veeam Data Platform Reviews

The product is really easy to use.

It has made the VM infrastructure easier to manage, as well as simplifying the backup and restore process.

The tape management is not really efficient and some other products are better. I know that backup on tape is not the the main target of Veeam but, it's important.

I've used it for two years.

Nothing serious.

Sometimes, the memory is not big enough, and I would guess that a leak might be present. Performing a monthly reboot solve this (at the same time as Windows updates).

No issues encountered.

It's good.

It's poor for certain issues (with the Veeam One product, the guys did not talk together and asked the same question several times). We had a loss of production time, and the answers they gave were not efficient.

It was simple and fast.

I implemented it myself.

I also looked at Avamar, Symanted and TSM which are better for tape management and data retention management, but expensive. Veeam however, is the easiest way to manage virtual infrastructure backup, and the cost is better, when compared with some other solutions.

Evaluate your needs before choosing a product. If tape management is required only, then Veeam is not the choice.

• Sure backup
• Synthetic backups

It drastically reduced the backup time window and improved data protection.

Better flexibility for scheduling jobs, specifically for the SQL hourly log backup.

I've used it for eight months.

Nothing major encountered.

No issues encountered.

No issues encountered.

It's better than others.

It's the best I've encountered.

We previously used virtual server infrastructure backup solution.

It was simple and straightforward.

We implemented it through a Veeam engineer, unfortunately the level of expertise was not the best.

We also looked at Nakivo.

It's the best solution for a VMware environment.

The backup and replication ability.

Backups and restores are completed very fast. Also, it takes less time for backups than previously.

Active Directory, because if we could restore GPO as a single level object as well as restoring AD schema partition through backup then I think it will be great product.

I've been using it alongside Veeam Backup and Replication four years.

No issues encountered.

No issues encountered.

No issues encountered.

It is very good.

Technical support is also very good.

We are using both solutions right now.

It is straightforward to install and easy to configure and backup too.

I implemented it myself.

I think almost 80%.

It is just the license cost. and after that there is no cost except for support maintenance.

Yes we did.

It is a nice product.

VM Replication, Individual item restore.

Improved virtual infrastructures backup and recovery.

Backup of Physical could be improved. Additionally, customer service needs improvement.

2 years.

Customer service needs improvement.

Good.

Initial setup for Virtual was bit complex.

In-house.

Veeam Backup Replication can be deployed on the cloud and on-premise. We choose the best option based on many factors, such as the environment complexity and maturity of the customer.

We use Veeam Backup Replication as a backup and recovery solution.

Veeam Backup Replication's most valuable features are the ease of use and the interface is very configurable for the users. It's a very familiar solution in Algeria. 

The documentation and communication could be better in Veeam Backup Replication.

I have been using Veeam Backup & Replication for approximately 15 years.

We have approximately 50 customers using this solution.

The technical support from Veeam is very good.

Most of my customers previously used Veritas backup solutions.

The solution is very easy to implement.

We discovered Veeam Backup Replication with our presales people in our company. We did a POC at our office which is mandatory by our technical director when we discover a new solution. We go to the customer and discuss with them the difference and benefit of Veritas Backup Exec and Veeam and which can best suit their environment. Additionally, we show them the difference between using Veritas Backup Exec and the Veeam Backup Replication.

Veeam needs to work on their marketing for their solutions.

I would recommend this solution to others.

I rate Veeam Backup Replication a nine out of ten.

The primary use case of this solution is to take the complete backup of our Nutanix server and to dump it on our BR site. That's the feature we utilize. We are resellers of Veeam Backup & Replication. 

The solution provides two good features; backing up of the complete server in a plan, as well as copying or migrating it to another BR site. The solution provides lots of reporting and visualization of how much data has been transferred. If there is any kind of error you receive an alert message and everything can be configured. It does both these things without impacting performance. 

The solution requires a lot of bandwidth because our servers are heavy.

The solution is stable. 

The initial setup is straightforward.

Licensing is on an annual basis. 

This is generally a good solution. When I take actions on it, it gives a lot of visibility and reports on the dashboard. Technically speaking it's good.

I rate this solution an eight out of 10. 

We use the solution mainly for backup and redundancies. We keep historical VM images and replicate them to other data centers that we have.

The solution works well in two different environments, whether it is on-premises, cloud, or a combination.

If you do not use the standard software and you go with a third-party solution such as this one, it might not work the same. There is an integration issue I understand between the database standards.

Additionally, the solution can be difficult to manage if you do not have the training.

I have been using the solution for approximately three years.

The stability of the solution is good.

We have deployed this solution mostly in medium to large size businesses.

The installation is very straightforward.

When it comes to pricing for a backup solution for data centers, you do not care about the price. We just care about the service and want it to be reliable. In terms of subscription, it really makes sense. When you want to use all the functionalities it is good that Veeam did the subscription-based model, this is what gives it the most strength on the price.

I rate Veeam Backup Replication an eight out of ten.

Protection of virtual workloads.

• Rotating HDDs for offline backups use case
• Instant VM recovery with vPower NFS and SureBackup, also known as Recovery Assurance by other vendors.

• Relying on open source infrastructure for Veeam's architectural components instead of Microsoft for OS and DB.
• Support for containers, and agent-less KVM backups, and Citrix environments.
