Pros & Cons summary

Veritas Alta SaaS Protection offers ease of use with comprehensive Office 365 module coverage and valued duplication and scalability. Users praise its stability and automated recovery, though technical support for specific implementations like Oracle is lacking.

Prominent pros & cons

PROS

Veritas Alta SaaS Protection provides an easy-to-use experience with valuable features such as duplication.

Its scalability, especially in the hardware appliance, makes it very useful for businesses.

It offers complete coverage for all modules proposed by Office 365, which many competitors do not.

Users appreciate the comprehensive nature and enhanced security features, including an automated recovery feature that simplifies the restoration process.

The appliance is fully integrated with the cloud, supporting both hybrid and cloud environments.

CONS

Technical team was not very helpful, and support can be improved, especially when setup assistance is needed for specific implementations like Oracle or SQL servers.

There is a limitation in backup options, as only Veritas cloud is supported, excluding other major providers like GCP, Azure, and AWS.

Licensing has been a struggle with complexities and lack of sophistication, forcing customers into purchasing separate add-ons.

Performance issues are evident, especially in the time taken to complete jobs, and improvement in this area is necessary.

Customers face challenges in file recovery post-contract, as browsing files or recovering earlier versions is not supported by Veritas.

The implementation could be improved. The server setup is very easy, but some specific client implementation, for example, Oracle or SQL servers, are a little bit complicated. they should offer a bit more assistance with the setup for these particular items.

Currently, it isn't possible to use anything other than Veritas cloud to back up to. I think today it's important to cover the three major cloud provider: GCP, Azure and AWS.
