Veeam Data Platform Reviews

Backup and replication.

Great RPO and RTO.

Replication.

Cross-hypervisor replication.

• Detailed monitoring and alerting (I loved the advanced monitoring and reporting at my previous organization)

Previously, the infrastructure was configured and backed up at the application level and configuration changes were not replicated. With replication at the infrastructure level now, we don't have to worry about configuration changes.

• Monitoring of Xen- and KVM-based virtualization

I have used it for approximately over one year.

I have not encountered any stability issues.

I have not scaled it until now.

I have not used technical support.

I did not previously use a different solution.

Initial setup was simple.

It’s a great tool and management should consider spending money for it, as it eases a lot of complexities.

I have been using the free version but would definitely opt for the paid version if management approves it.

Before choosing this product, I did not evaluate other options.

It’s a simple and reliable solution, especially as I have experience with VMware products (ESXi).

• With Veeam Cloud Connect and Azure Storage you can get your backups offsite.
• With it, you don't have the complexity of managing an offsite infrastructure.
• It may even help to reduce your DRC strategy costs.

For us, it's a simple solution for our complex environment. It has helped us reduce the time to manage backups.

Everyday technology needs updates, patches, replacements. The challenge for us is to have resources up to date so that our skills and technical knowledge are up-to-date. Such is the case with all products, so it is as well with Veeam Backup.

Ease of use, it's simple to backup and restore.

Backups don't fail often which saves time and data.

Backing up Exchange could be better, particularly Clustered Exchange.

No

No

No

No issues.

Excellent, their support is fast and efficient.

Backup Exec, I was looking for something designed for Virtual Machines.

In VMWare it's really fast. For Hyper V it took some tooling around.

In-House.

I didn't measure it but it saves me tons of time and no data loss so it has likely paid for itself many times over.

Unitrends

Do it, it's a great product and is easy to use.

The solution can be used to backup databases. For example, from Windows, Linux, and Oracle. It is sometimes used by government organizations for email backup. 

The solution is easy to use and have good performance.

The data duplication should be improved.

I have been using the solution for a long time.

I have found the solution to be stable.

The solution is scalable.

The technical support has not been good in my experience. They need to have faster and more reliable support for this solution.

The installation was straightforward for me since I have done it before. It might not be for first time users. The time for the installation all depends on the environment.

We have one technician for the maintenance and deployment.

There is a license required for this solution and the price is a bit expensive but it depends on the environment that you have on how much it will cost.

I rate Veeam Backup Replication a seven out of ten.

• Simple VM backup & restore management console
• Works with both industry standard hypervisors, VMware & Hyper-V
• Fast and easy implementation
• Granular restore points for SharePoint

It provides simple DR operation & management for our heterogeneous virtualisation platform.

Besides Wintel environments, it would be good to have DR/HA for Unix/Linux platforms.

I have been using it for 1½ years.

We have not had any issues with deployment, stability, or scalability.

Customer service is awesome.

Initial setup was straightforward because it only provides DR.

Project implementation was via a vendor team.

We evaluated Availl software, because of their Wide Area File System technology.
