Cons
"Its price could be improved.""Technical support could be improved.""When you add a new site for backup, it gives you a notice that there is a new site, but the way you select that and configure that could be slightly better. It works, but it is not always very clear. For example, for the URL, you need to hover over the title or the name of the site. You should see it immediately on the screen. It should have a better user interface for selecting what you want to back up so that you get a more clear overview of the sites that are there and the ones that you want to combine in a backup. Its user interface should be more user-friendly. It has a lot of scrolling and doesn't give you a complete overview when needed. That's the main thing why it is not very user-friendly. It should have a better user interface.""Currently, I'm working for Huawei and they dropped the support for Huawei, so that's an issue for us.""Veeam is quite expensive.""The license pricing can be reduced.""The solution could improve scalability, both in terms of more storage and users. These two attributes are quite important when you talk about good scalability.""They need more documentation, awareness, and assistance."
