Veeam Data Platform Reviews

Using Veeam Data Platform, I manage data migration to the cloud, business recovery, and various configurations.

The most valuable data protection features in Veeam are encryption and error handling. Encryption safeguards sensitive information like credit card data, while robust error handling ensures data integrity.

Apart from security improvements, enhancing compatibility with various platforms and addressing limitations related to integration and verification would be beneficial. For instance, ensuring seamless integration with AWS and overcoming hardware-related constraints for incremental verification would enhance overall usability and reliability.

I have had a great experience with their support team. They are highly professional, knowledgeable, and always willing to help, providing valuable assistance in improving our product. I would rate the support at a nine out of ten.

Positive

Veeam's security might be weaker than Dell's, but in terms of performance and reliability, Veeam often matches or surpasses Dell. For tasks like isolating areas for maintenance, Veeam offers more automated solutions compared to Dell's manual processes.

The initial setup of Veeam is easy, typically requiring minimal personnel for maintenance.

The pricing for Veeam Data Platform varies based on functionality needs. While it can be costly for clients requiring application backup, it is generally considered reasonable considering the extensive features offered.

We use Veeam for backup and disaster recovery because of its ease of use and our team's expertise. However, we are exploring other options, like daily security solutions, to ensure we provide the best fit for our clients' needs, rather than sticking to just one tool.

Veeam works best in Azure environments, but it might not be ideal for security-focused solutions like ADAP. However, it excels in hyper-converged infrastructure setups, making it a strong choice for those environments.

Veeam's scalability and flexibility benefit our organization by seamlessly integrating into existing environments, especially with popular hypervisors. This ease of integration simplifies management and allows for efficient testing, making it straightforward to use and manage.

Overall, I would rate Veeam Data Platform as an eight out of ten.

I use Veeam ONE in my company to provide customer backup reports if required. Veeam ONE is also useful for monitoring any issues with the current server. My company views logs from Veeam ONE to see if there is any solution that we can give to customers. My company uses Veeam ONE to look at what advice we can give customers to ensure that all their servers are always protected.

The benefit I get from the product is that it is a sophisticated monitoring tool that helps our company's team, along with the infrastructure team, view the current status of all the servers monitored with Veeam ONE.

The most valuable feature of the solution is that it offers a very sophisticated interface to view, making it a bit easier for our company's operations team to take care of the monitoring part involving the current status of the server and server backup status.

I think there are no suggestions from my end for an improvement of Veeam ONE.

The user experience can be better, as it is one of the areas with shortcomings in the product.

I feel Veeam ONE has no downsides apart from its reporting area, which can be improved in such a way that its users can customize more of the report templates in an in-depth manner. I think there are improvements in Veeam ONE that I can see, including the tool's area that provides more flexibility in generating reports for its customers to view.

I have been using Veeam ONE for more than a year. My company operates as a system integrator of the product.

For my current usage, Veeam ONE is pretty stable.

Veeam ONE is a really scalable solution.

Veeam ONE is used by one of my company's customers.

At times, my company contacts the solution's technical support. My company's support for Veeam ONE is similar to the one we get for the backup solution from Veeam. The suggestions provided by Veeam's support team have been very useful for my company. Veeam's support team provides users with a nice view of the usability of Veeam ONE.

I rate the technical support an eight out of ten.

Positive

For monitoring purposes, my company uses a free, open-source solution like Zabbix. Compared to Zabbix, I feel Veeam ONE can be more useful for monitoring purposes.

Compared to Zabbix, I feel Veeam ONE has no downsides apart from its reporting area, which can be improved.

The product's initial setup phase was straightforward for me.

I do not have any experience in the deployment process of Veeam ONE.

The solution is deployed on an on-premises model.

To date, I have seen a return on investment from the use of Veeam ONE in my company. The ROI is quite high considering the value Veeam ONE provides its users.

For now, I think the pricing of Veeam ONE is quite okay for any of the infrastructures, especially for those who want a backup system and a tool that provides monitoring services.

People can look at Veeam ONE if they want one application to provide them with a sophisticated monitoring tool and useful backup reports easily.

I rate the overall tool an eight out of ten.

We use the solution for the backup of the servers on-premise. We also use it to back up our mailbox.

The solution is very user-friendly. I find the compression rate to be very good. It's very easy to go through the restoration process to locate an individual file.

It would be better if the solution presented the number of servers and the success rate on the dashboard. Currently, we have to click on user history or get it through emails.

I have been using the solution for one year.

The tool is very stable.

The solution is scalable and seamless. We have about 80 users in our organization.

The support is good. When I had an issue, the team was very receptive and provided the assistance required through remote sessions. It was very, very good.

Positive

We were using Backup Exec. We then switched to Veeam ONE because it is very practical and has different applications integrated with it.

The deployment took two days.

The service providers did the implementation. The solution is easy to maintain. The number of people required for maintenance depends on the size of the business. We need one person to maintain the product in our organization.

I find the pricing to be okay. We have to pay for the license yearly. There are no additional costs associated with the product.

Veeam ONE is a very good product. The usage depends on our organization, whether we're using Linux or Windows. It's compatible with all. The product is seamless. Overall, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.

Veeam ONE is for dashboarding purposes. Veeam ONE has the ability to forecast how the infrastructure will be working in the future. You can visualize how you manage your resources or forecast storage. Veeam ONE can also forecast the usage of servers or the lifecycle of servers. It can tell you how your server's working currently and if you use X in the future, how many servers you require for new deployments. 

It's very useful, customizable, and scalable.

It's good for forecasting future needs.

The dashboard has been very useful. It has good reporting on offer. 

The solution offers a very straightforward setup. 

It's stable. 

There aren't really any areas for improvement. 

The pricing is very high. 

I've been working with the solution for about five years. 

The scalability is very good. I'd rate it nine out of ten. It's easy to expand.

We have five to ten users on the product right now. They monitor 500 or 600 users from the dashboard. 

I haven't used technical support. I haven't had any issues. I've been able to manage everything so far. 

The setup is very simple and straightforward. That said, it can get complex once you add servers. It takes time to sync the server, for example.

It takes one to two hours to deploy the solution.

The whole process is very simple. You just click next, next, next, and you are done. 

The stability is good. In a previous version, the stability was good, however, in the newer version, it is working properly. It's reliable. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. 

It's an expensive solution. Clients sometimes wonder why they pay so much if they only want reporting. 

Users can choose between monthly and yearly pricing. 

It is a very good product; however, it's expensive. I'd rate it nine out of ten based on the capabilities and value we get out of it. 

The main use case is performing a backup of a virtualized environment.

The most valuable feature is adaptability, where it automatically adapts to the environment that it's being installed on. It can auto-configure backup transport, whether it be a direct-attach or network-based.

It has one-click restores and instant recovery, which is important because if a product doesn't have a good restore and recovery capability, then the backup is pretty much useless.

They need full cloud integration such that an on-premises backup can be offloaded to the cloud for storage. It is my understanding that they are focusing on solidifying that now. Everybody wants to be able to integrate with the cloud.

I have been using the Veeam Backup & Replication solution for 12 years.

Around the first quarter of this year, they rolled out release 10. The last stable version was 9.5 Update 4, and since the release of version 10, they just rolled out the first update, which is 10 Alpha.

Version 10a has a lot of fixes. For the most part, it's a very fluent software, and very stable. However, some of the new features, when they're trying to roll them out, they seem to have to do the updates just to stabilize those.

Over the years they've had some minor bugs, but nothing that stands out in the crowd compared to anything else because everybody else has the same issues.

This is a scalable product.

I've been very, very pleased with the Veeam software tech support. When you call in, you actually get a live person and they are typically able to assist you or direct you to second-tier support if it's above their typical area of expertise.

The complexity of the initial setup depends on the environment and whether it is an all-in-one or distributed. For an all-in-one situation, it can be very straightforward. You just install it and press next, next, next. You will get everything you need and a fully functional product.

In a distributed setup, you have a couple of components that are external to the server that you're loading the main software on. This is a database server and reporting server, as well as an enterprise managing component. With these additional components, you have just a little bit more configuration. They're not that complex and I've actually done some other backups in the past that were more complex.

Overall, it is pretty straightforward.

In the company that I work for, we have a managed services group. So, our backup and engineering team for managing other environments are also are skilled at doing Veeam.

We have a lot of customers that use Veeam, and I'm the installer implementer. I implement these solutions and do upgrades to them. There are a couple of us who are field engineers, and either of us can maintain and deploy updates.

My understanding is that it is a fairly small price point. They have two different models, where one is based on the sockets that you're protecting, and the other is based on instances, or servers. You can choose whichever model works best for you.

I think that this is a good product across any environment. I've installed it for schools, in the financial industry, for lawyers, and places that vary in size from small to large. I've never had any issues and I recommend it.

I know that there are always new features being released but at this point, there is nothing to say that I need anything more. That said, there is always room for improvement.

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.

I used the product for migrating snapshots between clusters.

They could include better automation features for migrating VMs without further configuration for the product.

I used VM Backup and Replication for about a month.

I rate the product stability an eight. 

I rate the product scalability a seven. 

The setup was quite simple and took about four hours on-premises. I rate the process an eight. 

The solution is fairly priced. I rate the pricing a five out of ten. 

I rate Veeam Backup & Replication a six out of ten. It has similar features to other software but lacks distinct advantages.

I use the solution in my company to monitor the backup status and to plan in areas like capacity planning, such as how much current backup utilization is used. The tool can maybe predict the future trend of the data groups and their growing size.

The solution's most valuable feature is that its reports are detailed compared to other tools. It can integrate with VMware, and it can see VMware's recent status while it can receive alerts for Veeam Backup. The tool can be highly integrated with VMware and other Veeam solutions. Reporting-wise, the product is good. You can choose any templates for your report from the solution's consolidated data.

The tool should add more hypervisors inside it, like Hyper-V or Nutanix since it is an area of concern in the solution currently.

I feel that the product's support team needs improvement.

I feel that there are some new features in the new version of the product, which is Veeam ONE 12.1, and it also has some anti-malware functionalities. I have not found the new features in the product to be useful because it has so many false positives. The product needs to be integrated with some antivirus solution so that its new features can be used in a better way.

I have been using Veeam ONE for three to four years. My company has a partnership with Veeam ONE.

So far, my company has not had any issues with the product in terms of stability. We have installed the product and it runs properly without any major issues.

The solution's technical support is satisfactory. I rate the technical support an eight out of ten.

Positive

My company uses Arcserve and some products from China, like Vinchin. Acronis was also a solution that was used in my company in the past. So far, we found that Veeam ONE is quite good compared to other products. Veeam ONE is balanced in terms of its interface, backup design concepts, and backup infra.

The product's initial setup phase was quite straightforward.

One person can manage the product's installation phase.

The solution can be deployed in two to three hours. You just let it run with SQL and some other things. The installation process is quite straightforward. I just follow the installation steps, and it can be done easily.

I have seen some time-saving benefits from the use of the product in my country, up to 20 to 30 percent.

I consider that the product's price falls under the middle range category.

The solution is easy to maintain, but so far, we didn't have any major issues with the tool.

Actually, in our organization, we didn't go for any compliance parts with the tool. For our customers, we went for some audit purposes to meet some compliance requirements. Veeam ONE can generate some particular compliance report files from its users' available data.

I rate the tool a nine out of ten.

Instant recovery, ease of use, and integrations are some of the valuable features.     

I have an experience of ten years with Veeam Backup & Replication.

I would rate the stability nine out of ten.

It's highly scalable if at a proxy zone.

I would rate the scalability seven out of ten.

The technical support is quite supportive.

Positive

The setup is on-premises and takes half a day for the first part. The next part takes a few hours

The deployment process requires a few steps, to download the file and follow the standard procedure as instructed.

I would rate the initial setup nine out of ten.

The changes in pricing have been an interesting aspect. It seems to have become pricier, resulting in a reduction in affordability. There are extra expenses involved, including hardware requirements and the procurement of operating system licenses, which must also be taken into account.

I would rate the price seven out of ten.
